Would I take winning the CL over not winning any cup at all? Hmm, that's a toughie. I'm going to have to sleep on that one.
Would you take beating Liverpool in the CL final, but they win the league?

A better question would be would you take Liverpool winning the League but we win the FA Cup?
That's a tougher one I think.

Hmm...for the club, for the fans, anything.
You actually lost your last final against Liverpool
How would that work? The scandal would get them docked 20 points a season for eternity?
Alright, sorry, it was a stupid thread. Feel free to delete it.
Yep.
Let me understand this. You are asking a Manchester United forum if they would take winning the champions league or not winning. What the flying feck do you expect someone to say?
I’d rather we won nothing if it meant Liverpool winning the PL or the CL.
fecking hell, there is no end for these imaginary scenarios.
Absolutely.
The CL is the most important/biggest competition in the world. Bigger than the WC for me.

Yes
for a supposedly biggest club in the world we are really lagging behind on champions leagues. Stuck on 3 and looking above to see Ajax on 4 , Bayern/Liverpool/Barcelona on 5, Milan 7 and Madrid 13. we should be higher on the list. for all our dominance under Fergie it's very disappointing we couldn't win it more
than twice.
than twice.
Without a shadow of a doubt.
4 European Cups would be incredible.

Would have been better if you made a thread about "Would fans take a top 4 (Even top 3) spot, or missing out on top 4 already but with the Champions League Final to play?".
That thread would have been more amusing and more about ourselves also.
Pointless question.
We are Man Utd and we should be aiming for major silverware: the EPL and the UCL.
No other trophy comes anywhere close to winning these 2 apart from giving us pride-by-proxy.
It doesn't matter what our rivals win, all that matters is that we win major silverware and remain in contention for major silverware for the next season.

Beating them in a CL final is priceless.
1000% yes.
1000% yes.
I said Benitez vs Fergie in a final. The last time we lost in a final against Liverpool was 2003. Beckham was playing for us and Houllier was their manager.
This thing between Utd and the Scousers gets out of hand. Ridiculous question wouldn't give it the time of day!
Yes.
Already dreading all the "United getting top four vs Liverpool winning the league" discussions before our game against City. It's going to be relentless.
Normally if you asked this question during Mourinho's tenure, I would say NO.
But this feels different because even if they won the PL, us winning the CL will be the beginning of a new United era. We will be hated again, teams will be scared coming to us again.
So yeah. I'd take the CL, we coming back next season to widen the gap.

So hating Liverpool is more important to you than Manchester United?
Hell yes! You don't get to win the cl often so that's easy.
Yep. But the build up to that final would be fecking unbearable. The glory of a possible CL title - or the horror of them doing the double. feck!
I'd take any 'what if' scenario about this season if it meant United winning the CL. I wouldn't care one bit what anyone else does.
Yes. What type of question is this?
Embrace the dark side, my new apprentice!
I'd take beating if it stopped those 'would you rather aids or hiv' threads.
Yes, I suppose we can crow over beating them in the CL and raining on their parade when they win the PL.
Preferably take our parade bus and ram it against theirs when we both do it simultaneously as well.

Or course.
I worry for anyone that says no.

Would not because I fully excpect them to bottle both now that they are in the QF. I said it before if they got knocked out yesterday they could put a full effort in the league with no distractions and aldo their first 11 is great they don't have a strong squad like City.
Definitely for CL, i wouldn't for an FA Cup though.
Oh God no! The FA Cup will be zero consolation if Liverpool win the league.
I would say no too.
Winning CL is our back door to playing CL next season, among other things. And it is the biggest trophy in club football, too. If we manage to win this tournament, it will be a great achievement.
Absolutely yes, to stop them getting 6 European cups and we get our 4th in the process, it would be one of the best moments in our history imo.
Please.
Enough with these threads already
So basically what you are asking - is our success more important that Liverpools failure ?
Anyone not answering "YES" to do that qustion, surely isnt a fan!

I think the ones who'd prefer a City quadruple over Liverpool winning the PL would be on their knees instantly infront of Stevie Sliphard!- Status
