If you were offered one trophy, which would you choose?

I'd like to get the Champions League monkey off our back. Just once would be fine with me and beating Bayern and Real would make it count too.

But i'd prefer to win the Premier League much more. Possibly on goal difference with Arsenal losing 2-3 on the final day after being 2-0 up, and us winning 3-2 on the final day after being 2-0 down. There would be Tarquins everywhere opening the champagne only to have to put the cork back at full time.
 
OK, let's be honest if I could choose one trophy it would be best hair, but now @Magicpole is back what chance do I have. Here he is in one of his more reflective moments

I really will sit on the fence with this one. I’m sure the players and management will give it their all and if the CL is the one they want then that’s good enough for me.
It’s all about the journey for me and I still pinch myself how we have raised the bar in terms of quality football.
It’s also boiling some serious amounts of urine.
 
Three in a row would be nice, but I wont lie, stopping Liverpool winning it last season was as much an incentive as winning it ourselves. It would be the same if the rags were top. I don't mind Arsenal winning it as much, so it has to be the CL.

I love the FA Cup but the CL remains the only trophy we are yet to win. Win three league titles in a row and the media just question our side over the lack of a European trophy. We have to get that in the bag, so that's the one I'd choose. Pep is a huge attraction for our club. Players come to City because of him. When he leaves we will not have the same pull, but the pull is stronger if there's a CL in the cabinet.

As a side that's likely to transition further this summer, with the likes of Gundo, Bernardo and Laporte leaving in all likelihood, it makes perfect timing. I think winning back-to-back titles is special, winning three in a row is rare but it doesn't really get talked about as being anymore significant. We need the CL. I'll always want to win more as a City fan, but I was 23 before City made it to a major final and won something. I'm conscious that maybe one day we will be fighting down the table or down the leagues again, and winning the CL is something we can all look back on as we do the FA Cup final, Aguero moment and all those other great days.

People might not be bothered by what others think but if we were to say "we won three league titles in a row" we'll just get "didn't win the CL though did you" back. That's got to stop.

So as Pep says we are lucky to be fighting on three fronts still as we head towards April.

I’m interested in the thoughts of fellow blues…

Of course we want all three that goes without saying, however if you were offered a deal for one trophy would it be chasing down Arsenal and retaining the league again or would it be getting through both Bayern & Madrid plus of course the final and finally winning the champions league.
Or finally just in case anybody has a specific reason win the FA Cup?

For me I’d love to see us pip Arsenal to the league, but I also think as good as they have been this season they aren’t a long term threat until more £ is invested in their side and just generally for me I’d love to see us finally lift the champions league and get the monkey off our back, I also believe if we do finally win it then it’ll give us the confidence to go on and win it several times over the next few seasons (providing it still exists etc.)

I would have preferred the ‘we beat Liverpool home & away trophy’
