I'm firmly in the CL camp now. If we win the league it's our 6th in 10 seasons which is incredible. But 5 in 10 seasons isn't too shoddy either. The CL is the stick to beat us with. I don't care if the criticism turns to "you've only won it once". That's pathetic and hardly an insult.
We could win the league 10 times in a row but until we win the CL credit will not be given to the club. We'll always be downplayed in comparison to the dippers, because the media is full of their fans and former players.
In terms of Pep v Klopp times the comparison is 3 league titles v 1, 1 FA Cup v 0, 4 league cups v 1 and 0 CL v 1.
Yet we're talked about in the same breath purely because of the CL. We have to win it. Even if they won the league ahead of us we've won more under Pep. We'd have at least the same number of FA Cups in that time and we're ahead on league cups.
