    It's meaningless unless all you care about is money.

    We're not good enough to win the CL (we have no chance actually, not even an outside one), moreover we shouldn't be in it, as has been discussed it's a disgrace 3nd and even 4th place teams can get in (ideally should be Champions only). Making up the numbers really isn't enjoyable.

    IMO 4th place is meaningless and no achievement.

    FA Cup.

    If we do miss out on 4th it will be very tight, it's not like we're a million miles away. With a bit of work in the summer, the squad and fans buoyd by a cup win, we should be able to challenge for 4th next year.

    Of course this is academic though seeing as we won't win the cup or finish 4th.

    Can't decide. FA Cup would be great but would it convince players to join us if we are not in the CL?

    Rubbish thats why we nearly beat barca in the final in 06 and would have won it had henry not fluffed his lines. or do you mean currently not good enough to win it, i think were good enough to win it on our day and if we got a good drawnothing could stop us.

    I agree a cup would be nice though. as long as the rules say we can be in it id love us to be in it.

    That would only be a problem if we actually went after top players.

    2006? That's almost 6 years ago, I meant presently, like I said we have no chance there's not enough quality and we don't have enough discipline to grind out results and get lucky either.

    We didnt win it because we were not good enough in 06. Barca were by far the better team then too. Henry missed a good chance but the fact is we hardly created anything. Plus it was 6 years ago when we had a better team than the dross we have now.

    I have simply had enough of these trolls at our club and am completely negative until something changes.

    If we get 4th then we get 25 million, so what?, we wont spend it so whats the fucking point and we sure as hell cant win it!!!.

    If we win a cup Wenger gets all up in our faces saying he knew we could win something with this team blah blah blah and the huge cracks in the team are once again papered over. Winning a cup has an element of luck of the draw and it does not represent the best team in all cases.

    Challenging for the prem is what I want, I know winning it is probably impossible with the stupid cheating amount of money that floats around.

    I would even go with staying 4th as Man u, Man City and the chavs have that money. At least that represents consistency.

    4th place.

    RVP will leave without it, maybe Feo as well (probably just as he hits a run of form).

    Seeing Spurs in the Champs Lge and not us is going to be shit.
