I appreciate the FA Cups recently won.
In turn, for us, I'd appreciate EVERY SINGLE domestic trophy won (MLSCup, Shield, USOC), and CCL if we ever get deep in that tournament. Seattle, Chicago and SKC are 3/4/5 in domestic trophies won based SOLELY on how many USOCs they've won (four each).
All Liverpool fans want to win the league and they haven't done so recently. Do Liverpool fans discount the treble they won in ~2003 or whatever? The Champions League win? Thought so. You gladly accept any trophy won. To think otherwise reeks of idiocy.
As a Liverpool fan, until we win the Prem, I don't give a rat's ass about anything other than the Prem and CL. "Gladly accept," sure, but winning or losing those smaller cups are no big deal at all. We could win both the FA Cup and the League Cup, but if we drop out of CL, the season would be a total failure.
