If you mean winning it then Champions League, but if you just mean qualifying then the FA Cup all the way.

 

The reason the CL is so important is the revenue gained allows you to consistently compete for trophies. It doesn’t mean much if you then never go on to win any. Trophies is more important than anything.

 

For us as a club there is the extra factor that we’d never won the FA Cup and, when people talk about the club growing, they shouldn’t forget the global exposure the cup win brings following so soon after the league title

FA cup for sure. Plus I genuinely think we could have a shot at the Europa League next year and I would sooner win that than go out early in the knock out rounds for Champions League.

FA Cup in the bank 1000000000000000000000%. Was only really bothered about UCL for the extra money, which could possible afford us one extra quality signing

Of course there is the option to go into the Champions League, finish 3rd in the group and still enter the Europa. 
 

In terms of a trophy v Champions League qualification I’d always go trophy; but the CL will always be much, much, better than the Europa - and I’m not one of those who would ever be sniffy about Europa League qualification

Hinestly, I wasn't sure before the final. Would have loved the cup, but Champs League important for the club too.

 

Now that we've won the cup, I wouldn't swap it for the world and in future, I'll always take the trophy option, it's what football is about.

Wouldn't get those scenes with Top on the pitch, or our old guard having their last hurrah together... the euphoria of fans together in those numbers. The absolute LIMBS for Youri's goal. The lesser but no-less epic celebration for chilwell's disallowed goal.

 

Before Christmas i'd have said top four. Ever since the Quarters and especially talking to my Dad about how much it means to him after 52 years as a fan? Gimme the FA Cup every day. I 'get it' now, as someone just too young to even remember our League Cup triumphs besides seeing my Dad over the moon at home back then.

 

The only comparable feeling I've had in footy would be during England's 2018 World Cup run - the anticipation and the togetherness with other fans - the 'can we do this?' vibes. Nothing compares to cup footy when it goes your way, and I'll feel just the same if we go deep into Europe, whether UCL or Europa.
