How many trophies will we win?

A Hazard who, if we'd signed him in 2012, might have made a huge difference both domestically and in Europe.

No one knows. He did not exactly create a dynasty at Chelsea.

Have to win the European Cup once first. Non sensical to say we need it 3 times. Once comes first.

Exactly. How can something not be worth winning because we haven't won it 3-4 times? Everyone has to start somewhere.

I just find it incredible how anyone can want to win the League Cup more than the CL, especially as we've won it five times in seven years. Winning any cup is great but this one has so little prestige these days and may probably cease to exist when the CL is expanded.

Going off today's performance? We'll be lucky with 1.

Yea but my point is will be long time before the super stars come here. We wont be signing the likes of Mbappe etc if we win the European Cup, sure you have to start somewhere but at the same time the impact of it is bit overrated unless you have won it couple of times already.

We will still be able tosign the same players we do now even if we just win the League Cup.

No. The plan was to have won European Cup before now. With luck this year or next would be two or three. Job done. Sod the League Cup.

At the expense of winning the fa cup or league cup ? I’m a football fan not a businessman , tossing the domestic trophies off for some sort of fake kudos from the Champions league is not for me .

Well you'd better walk away now, because I can tell you for sure that the ownership, manager and players would cut their bollocks off to win the CL over the domestic cups.

You get it. Too many small minded posts on here at the minute.

True we would look back ten years from now with great pride on a wonderful domestic cup double over Spurs and Leicester rather than a gallant Champions league semi defeat

No, but he didn't play for a manager as good as Pep either. He still won all of the domestic honours and two Europa Leagues.

A CL win might not bring us the top names immediately but it will increase our chances. The League Cup has no bearing on anything in the future.

At yhe rate the starting line up is being changed I would not be surprised if we won nothing.
Pep needs to stop faffing about with team selection and play the strongest available team in every game.
