Pundits have been talking about the likes of Leicester prioritizing to ensure they can win trophies.

Given that we are "still in 4 comps" including a final we need to do the same, given how shit we are.

To be fair, id take the league cup and skip to August right now. Cant even see that tho given that Liverpool are quite capable of stringing three passes together at the best of times, let alone against us when they usually perform like demigods.

Id go balls out against Chelsea next week... we aint winning the league or the European Cup.

Thoughts...

I agree. Won't happen. I'd go for a draw in Kiev. Try and get a result at home v Kiev. Cups are our best chance of success now.
 
we are only 6 points off top, of course we can still win the league.

It's like some people have forgotten how we won our last 2 leagues.

We're always shit in January and February. Mainly because we run our players into the ground instead of using young players over the Xmas period and this is where it catches up to us. Then we kick off in about March and win 10 on the bounce.

Not predicting that will happen that time but us being diabolically poor in February has happened probably every year since we've been in the CL, and we've still won leagues from there.

We will not win the league. I think it's easier for everyone if this realization sinks in with everyone now.
We have 3 teams ahead of us who are playing better individually and as a whole. We are playing like crippled strangers.
Cups is the only way we will redeem this season now, and as the good man said, beating Liverpool is far from secure right now.
 
No chance. If we were chasing only one side, then it might be possible (as in 2012), but to overhaul 3 in form sides? Forget it.

Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool were the form sides in 2013 and we overhauled all of them
 
Cup final should be our biggest priority so we don't end the season completely empty-handed (assuming we play the kids v Chelsea and don't wake up suddenly able to put 6 past Barca or Real or whoever we'd get if we get past Kiev). Unfortunately Liverpool is a matchup nightmare for our squad as currently constructed.

A trophy and top 4 spot in a season with unprecedented injuries and announcing the new manager in the middle of the season wouldn't be the end of the world.
