Rather a strange thing to say, you're always going to want to win the league over a cup, but that doesn't devalue the cup.If you ask any fan one simple question; "would you rather win the league or the FA Cup?", Then the entire thing falls apart because it just highlights how little the cup means anymore.
At least with the Champions League there's a feeling of your status being elevated somewhat. You did well in the league and now you're in the Promised Land filled with pixies and orcs and shithead Turkish referees who give Nani a red card but let that feckhead Ramos get away with murder.
But the cup? It's just window dressing. To me, anyway.
The only reason the CL gets so much prioroty nowadays is because of the $. Oh to have the days of the CL being for actual champions back again.
