And this type of rewarding failure is exactly why the much maligned super league came about.

I really hope they do rest their star players between now and the final, a City team lacking match practice suits us perfectly.

Unfortunately however Pep won't be that stupid.

Re rewarding failure.

Would you take  no CL but winning the FA Cup, over finishing 4th?

This season I would take 4th all day long! However, if we went say 5 or 6 years without a trophy, then I would definitely take either domestic Cup over finishing 4th.

I would take the FA Cup and take my chances on the CL final, no risk, no reward.

Maybe I'm being too idealistic but it's too Arsenal for my liking to settle for 4th (and it's a hard habit to break once you settle into it, even the biggest club in the country have fallen into the trap and are currently bragging about being home and dry), don't get me wrong I hope we get it but I just can't subscribe to treating it like I would a title race. The only time I did have the nerves like I do for a title bid for a top four race was 2003 and that was only because our future was likely at stake.
