It really isn't. Only people who don't watch games can surely take such a deranged "just look at the table at the end of the year" approach?
It is two different arguments and is scary how some can't see it. If it is about entertainment and footballing styles I would rather watch us all day every day. If at the start of the season you was given these two options then I would imagine 99% of people would say yeah I'd take two cups and a CL position over no trophies and 3rd at best.

What does it it matter to a blue the mostly vile media say about City? judge with your own eyes.The record books in years to come will show Utd won 2 trophies this season ( if they win the EL) and Manchester City won nothing.
No comment will be made as to Utd playing like Stoke and us trying to be entertaining.
Why should they?
No team has a God-given right to win stuff.
Well, if your squad costs more than the rest, and you have decades of help from officials, you should be winning titles and Champions Leagues ala Real & Barca..
They'll walk the EL and unfortunately that will make it a very good season for them.
I'd swap our disappointing season of 3rd or 4th place for a League Cup, Europa League win and a CL place in a heartbeat.
Would you though if it meant playing that football and showing absolutely no sign of progression?
I'm sure we could have won something had we treated this season like they did.
On paper their season is better, but in reality we are the club showing signs of progression and development.

I know what you mean, i've absolutely loved some of our play this season and laughed at how awful Utd look at times but whilst it's not just about winning trophies, there's no point in playing pretty football if you don't win anything.

Agreed, but for me you can see a clear vision and way forward for us.
Pep starts next season looking to improve a few obvious flaws and improve our squad. On our day we still look the best team in the league and can match anyone currently and will hopefully improve.
Regardless of what they win, they will start next season as the sixth best team in the league and in terms of football a mile behind.
PEG basically needs to start again.
On paper Arsenal could win the FA Cup and scrape 4th, is that a better season than Spurs?
But in reality they're miles behind Spurs.
I think the gap between United and the top teams is as great as it's been for a long while, a floodlight cup & a back door entrance can't hide their clear deficiencies!

Maureen special brand of turgid football has been nothing short of dreadful, but for some reason (clear to everyone and their dog) they are where they are in the table, and not languishing around mid-table having just saved themselves from relegation.
F**k em' - CNUT'S!

i totally agree, what i meant it to come across is, thats how their fans think of themselves.
