FA Cup, league is some distance away at the moment. I’d be happy with any cup win to be honest.

Not that it's the one I'd most like us to win, but I think we're due a League Cup.

As it's the first one we'll have an opportunity to win, let's start with that, and see about the others in a bit.

The trouble with the domestic cups is that Man City play in them. The trouble with the European one is that we play in it.

The League is not realistic, the club would want Champions League.

But I want my Son to see us win something & I want the FA Cup. But I'd take the Conference or the League Cup.

We should at least be getting much closer to achieving something.

FA Cup as it’s the only trophy that I’ve never seen us win. All other trophies would be nice but the FA Cup is still special, although not as special as it once was.

same here

tho not seen the us win the EC cup  neither but Ill take a FA Cup winners (  can you get in Europe If you win ?  )

I want Unai Emery to manage us for the next decade. I am sure silverware would come our way.

Next 3 games (all at home) are huge. I think we have a great chance to shape our season in three different competitions
