Yes it is worth the hassle for a club that has won sod all since 2008.
We need to be realistic and this isn't the premier League when both us and Leicester were going for it. Utd were in disarray, Pepe had just arrived. Klopp was building his team. This is the premier League where Liverpool are setting new records, City will come firing back next season with a couple defensive additions, Utd are two players away from being back up there, Chelsea have a very good team. Wolves are only going get better. Apart from our front three and Lo Celso the rest of our 11 are miles off the quality we had back in 2016/17.
We need to be realistic as to the level we are currently at and what is achievable. I generally believe unless we win something next season, Kane is going to hand in a transfer request and end up a Utd and then we start all over again. Just by finishing top four isn't going to keep him. He needs to see progression by winning a trophy not by finishng fourth again and even then we do not spend the levels.of money compared to our rivals which has happened every year we have been in the champions League.
So we're not going to improve compared to our rivals? Our players aren't going to get better nor will we add any reinforcements that will make us a stronger outfit whist our rivals are all going to simultaneously pull away from us? If this is the level you expect us to maintain then I can understand why we're having this debate, you're not thinking big enough.
Again we have 2 chances to win domestic trophies, that means not playing a Thursday/Sunday schedule thus allowing us to maintain focus on the league, less travel and far less rounds and matches to play. You make it seen like we're set in stone to win the Europa, if it was that easy we would have made a dent in the competition and come a lot more closer to QF appearances and I think Jose will get a lot more working with the squad during the week whilst our rivals are playing European football next season.
Your entire argument falls on us winning the competition like it's an absolute guarantee, as I mentioned before we have a better chance of winning a domestic trophy why are we discounting them like they don't exist?
