Both pointless trophies. Securing a CL place is better value.

Ironic an arsenal fan coming out with the "pointless trophy" line when it comes to the FA cup.

OP in the mud

Even Man City players were laughing and not bothered about losing

No true football fan would turn their nose up at winning the FA Cup, of League cup for that matter.

But if you are a team who wants to compete at the very top, then the league is your bread and butter and you want to be both qualifying for the CL and also challenging for the title itself.

Let's be honest - you wouldn't say for 10 years in a row, wanting to be winning a lot of domestic cups, but not qualifying for CLs, but by the same token, qualifying for the CLs consistently but not winning the league or having any finals to go to or trophies in the cabinet won't really feel that great after a while.

Football fans are greedy, we want it all.

Not sure if that is true, but it's easy to find yourself not at the top and regularly winning trophies, and suddenly winning anything becomes a more significant feeling.

Maybe it is a touch easier to cope with losing a final if you are used to winning trophies regularly, but no-one likes the feeling of losing.

Especially losing to your city rivals, with all the connotations for the fans, adds more spice to it all

Farewell just went quads up didn't it

posted on 26/5/24

Why are so many arsenal fans saying top 4 is better than winning the FA Cup?

For a fans point of view is it really? Is it so great as a fan to see your club win the extra few millions by being in the CL? And then the following season play a few games against Copenhagen, PSG etc. and then getting knocked out by Bayern?

Is that really better than actually winning a trophy?

Don't know about farewells but your City rivals four league titles in a row are a quad alright.

Probably a Korma, United fans are eating it and asking for a glass of milk to wash it down with.

The FA Cup has always been seen as the 'better cup' compared to League Cup.

If you have won a few cups in recent years, but been missing out on CL qualification, after a while you want CL qualification. And probably vice-versa applies also.

And let's face it , us fans just want it all.
