      No, you are wrong. Winning the FA cup for the 10 years in a row will mean nothing if we finsih 5th every year!!

      It will mean quite a lot actually.

      We'd have about 20 visits to Wembley!! The cockneys would be sick of us :-)

      I think if Shankly heard a fan say the FA cup is trivial at this point (position in the league & GD) he would have given you a lesson the the importance of it or any cup, times have changed but no, clubs have lost the plot.
      You'll soon understand the joy and tears that winning a cup gives you if we did, I got so emotional winning the league cup, entering the CL was like oh yeah well cool, we didn't win anything though.

      That's just as bad...don't you get that?

      This club exists to win trophies. So it IS a priority to win every trophy that we can. And winning a trophy and finishing top 4 (or 3 or 2 or 1), aren't mutually exclusive.

      One doesn't have to suffer for the other.

      At the start of any season, the priority for Liverpool football club has always been the league title and now in 2015, like or not, it’s still the league but with more emphasis on achieving a top 4 status. After this, the cups are a bonus!

      That's your opinion - you're perfectly entitled to it but I'd imagine many would disagree.  I believe in what the main man said.

      We are where we are... for the club long term, this cup means nothing IMO, for the short term and to win cup, it’s great.

      I personally would have preferred a top 4 spot but that’s the not a choice I or anyone will ever get... plus believe or not I can’t wait for tonight and the semi if we get through…

      But Can’t be arsed now…I thought I’d get a decent debate going, which I think Ive done… it loses its edge when you get called a c**t by someone you’ve never met… strong words from a feeble person!

      You didn't do yourself any favors by titling the thread "Forget the FA Cup"...especially when so many LFC supporters not only don't want to forget it, but are looking forward to winning it.

      It has nothing to do with our league standing or CL qualification...it's a competition that we should be winning and if we do, it will provide a massive boost to all of us (or at least it should).

      10 F.A.Cups in a row and 5th each season will do me, we get entry into the Europa League, win that and it's automatic entry into the Champions League without the need for players to be good enough for us to finish higher in the League.

      We're not going to to win the League this Season, that is gone for now. I agree fully with what debs said. It's all about the FA Cup from here on in. The last thing we want is the 'bottler' tag hanging around our necks so we must win the Cup to get this monkey off our back.

      Winning the Cup will get our confidence back and instil pride back into the Club. As long as we can get past Villa then it's a perfect final versus Arsenal to exact revenge and a chance for the lads to repay Brendan for their lack of guts during the last 2 league matches.

      i think winning last night might just give us that little boost we need to keep the pressure on the scum and Arsenal, lest not forget City who are flapping. There's still a small chance they will slip up and we dont, palace have proven you can give Chelsea a hard game if you get the tactics right.
      A visit to Wembley will be a great boost to the squad and if we beat Villa then a cup final and chance for new players and the younger ones to get a medal will be welcomed with open arms.
      off topic a minute but semi final should not be played at wembley also thats a joke

      You've got more chance of getting a nosh off JW Henry mate.

      The tickets have probably already been handed to a gang of corporate suits who don't even know what footy is.
