Would you Swap?

Robbie says he would swap league seasons if we’d won the CL.
But not for the Europa.
I’d probably go along with that.

Yep

While we are here, when did all this “Champions of Europe” bollox start?
No one calls the Carabao or FA Cup winners “Champions of England”.
They’re just the winners of that competition.

Fucking stupid question btw

Ofc not

Only club that could possibly answer yes to that question is Utd. The spuds, even by their own low standards, embarrassed themselves. They "won" some trophy competed by the dregs of the dregs of Europe that couldn't even make it into the all-comers CL. You can't judge anything by the Euro competitions anymore because they are pure commercial atrocities that have nothing to do with football. You judge it by the league - isn't that what has ALWAYS been said? If we judge our season as a loss because we finished second, then the spuds can judge theirs accordingly, down there in the relegation zone. Unless somebody is going to suggest we wouldn't have walked that shitty Europa Cornflakes Racket - seriously? Our Academy kids would have won that.

I honestly think any of the quarter finalists of the CL would have won the Europa League easily. Or at least it would have been a shock if they hadn’t.
Frankfurt? :lol:
Some Norwegian lot I’d never heard of :lol:
The worst Utd side in generations :lol:

Spurs didn’t exactly sweep aside the cream of Europe.

Champions of Europe :haha:
Yeah, only once you take out all the best sides.
