The new season starting in a month?Let's not bother winning a trophy to rest the first team players for... what exactly?

Fair point.This will be like a much better pre-season.
No, Chelsea won it last season and finished 3rd Arsenal still got Europa league footballIf we win Europa cup then Liecester will qualify for champions league?
You play football to win trophies. This club should try to win every competition its in. Every trophy adds to the history of the club.People talking about "winning a trophy". Didn't do Mourinho any good did it? His time here is still remembered as an utter failure by most. Small time trophies like the Europa League is irrelevant whilst we are good enough to get in CL.
No, only applies if EL winner was not qualified already.If we win Europa cup then Liecester will qualify for champions league?
Only the PL & CL matter these days. Few people seem to even remotely care about the Europa league, FA Cup and League Cup.Amazing how many fans don't want to win trophies.
It’s still the same glorified second trophy. Nobody remembers winning it.Different times, that was a long, long time ago.
Seeding still matters. Remember when City were new to Europe and couldn't qualify from their group because of 3rd and 4th seed?Only the PL & CL matter these days. Few people seem to even remotely care about the Europa league, FA Cup and League Cup.
Getting better draw in the CL would be a help.Only the PL & CL matter these days. Few people seem to even remotely care about the Europa league, FA Cup and League Cup.
This.Yep. Play the kids for LASK and then it's just 3 games to another trophy.
Precisely!Yep. Play the kids for LASK and then it's just 3 games to another trophy.
Great and then that season we can rest players for the following seasonThe new season starting in a month?
I’ll fight youNow that champions league is secured.
Don’t think we should bother with the Europa league. Yeah it’s another trophy, but we over used our starting 11 and they all need a break.
Would give some of the young and fringe players a go.
2 weeks rest is plenty. We've been playing every 3 days for the last 2 months so 2 weeks rest will be huge for the team. It'd be very different if we hadn't won the first leg 5-0 mind. Wolves for example will struggle.It’s still the same glorified second trophy. Nobody remembers winning it.
And have you seen our team last few weeks? Some of them need a long time off because we barely used the squad. Rashford and Pogba came back from serious injuries. Bruno was on his last legs.
Go into next season without recovery time?Next game, for sure play all the bench players, keep them fresh, fit and sharp.
From there, the Prem season is not too far away when the Europa concludes. If Ole is clever he will use them as good quality pre season games. We are three games away from a final, may as well give a good go. Just playing the kids will not benefit anyone in my opinion.
Sickening really isn't it. Wanting us to write an FA cup semi final off, and now write off a superb chance to win this Europa in the reduced format!Amazing how many fans don't want to win trophies.
People who aren't morons remember that we've won the Europa League trophy, against Ajax precisely. You saying that doesn't make it true.It’s still the same glorified second trophy. Nobody remembers winning it.
