Winning either cup also leads to automatic qualification for the group stage. Not quite. 5th is guaranteed group stage of UEL. FA Cup winner is automatically in the group stage of UEL. League Cup winner starts in 2nd round of qualifying for UEL. 6th gets into group stage of UEL if the FA Cup is won by a Top 5 club. 6th gets into 2nd round of qualifying for UEL if FA Cup winner is outside of the Top 5 and the league cup is won by a team in the Top 5. 7th gets into 2nd round of qualifying for UEL if both cups are won by a Top 6 team. Simples...
Anglodanglo Posted 6 July 2019 Posted 6 July 2019 Option C.....6th place AND the Cup Qualify for Europe twice, play ourselves in the final and watch Vardy win a last min penalty when he fouls himself. Option C all the way for me

But even in that contrived hypothetical I think we should still prefer silverware to none. Not implying that 6/7 league cup games would harm our league form just questioning building a good young team if all youre aiming for is the league cup?

coolhandfox Posted 6 July 2019 Posted 6 July 2019 Having seen us lift 2 league cups in my life time, I'd prefer us to finish 6th. But if it was 6th or FA cup, it would be the FA cup all day long! Would be amazing to complete the set of domestic trophies.
Alex_LCFC Posted 6 July 2019 Posted 6 July 2019 I’d take a cup all day long, league cup gets you europa league anyway
