Does anyone think we've given up on the league?
We aren't winning it (we've known that for months).
But have we de-prioritised it to such an extent that we throw in a half arsed performance in the derby, with poor tactics and personnel deployed?
Is our focus so much on the Champions League that everything else should be forgotten?

It's what usually happens to the players I would think. They dont want to pick up Injuries in a competition we should finish 2nd in. The sharpness is down to 90% and though they would never give up as professionals the mental focus is just not there

Yes I fully expect Arsenal to get something this week as Arteta will be so up for it. Doesn't really matter though. Looking forward to the dippers getting dumped out tonight, I think Athletico will just do enough.

Imo, we shouuld concentrate on the FA Cup, then The CL...but I'm sure Pep will focus on CL above all all else.
Thst said, we'll still beat the Arse tomorrow night

Re: Does anyone think we've given up on the league?
I think we should now do all we can to win the champions league. That is the one the owners we are repeatedly led to believe covet over all else. Pep also will supposedly in his own words be judged on his champions league results. It would also leave UEFA with egg on their faces should we win it in the face of all the crap they have thrown at us. Then FA Cup in my opinion. We do need to win the FA cup though to defend our Community Shield.....

Re: Does anyone think we've given up on the league?
There is definitely one eye on the CL when it comes to league games, and that makes perfect sense to me. However I don’t think Pep and the players will ease up in selection and intensity in the FA cup. It is still a very prestigious competition despite what some say.
It will say a hell of a lot about our standing as a club if it is deemed to be a disastrous season if we ‘only’ manage to win both domestic cups, come second to an extremely fortunate Liverpool team in the league and get past Real Madrid to reach the latter stages of the Champions League.

Re: Does anyone think we've given up on the league?
Yes we've definitely given up on the league and rightly so. We still need to guarantee top 4 though and our second string should still be capable of seeing us to that goal. Priority is CL and FA Cup. Obviously be great if we can win the CL but my worry is Pep will leave once he's achieved that. I'll be more than happy with a FA Cup final win over the rags and a SF spot in CL.

Just need them to cancel the league now

Brilliant stuff
Dunno about cancelling the league but there’s a very good chance it will be suspended. Having said that the CL could also be cancelled or suspended too & maybe the FA Cup.

I think everything has to be suspended. I can see Spain and France following Italy's lead and closing borders.
20 days ago, Italy had 200 confirmed cases a day. Now it has 200 deaths a day.
