Despite 7 top-4 finalists in the last 5 years they think its something for no-hopers not a 'respectable' top-4 team.

I don't mind winning it but I don't especially care. If we won a cup with our youth team then it would be awesome, but for our first team my wishes are:
Champions League
Premiership
FA Cup
Carling Cup.
I would rather get to the Semis of the Champions League, Finish 2 in the normal league more than I would winning the Carling Cup. Every team who plays in the Champions League doesn't play their strongest team for the Carling Cup do they? Ensuring a top 4 finish is more important than the Carling Cup.
Spurs, or at least Redknapp, said pretty much the same thing.
