When Blanchflower said “The great fallacy is that the game is first and last about winning. It is nothing of the kind. The game is about glory, it is about doing things in style and with a flourish.”. I don't think he's saying it's ok just to be a stylish team, or that winning trophies doesn't matter, he is saying you must be successful and win trophies in the right way.
Interesting how different people interpret things because to me that's exactly what he's saying and what people in this thread have been saying, of course we want to win trophies but is it THE most important thing? In my opinion no, it's about the glory which entails doing things the right way.
Wigan, Arsenal and man united in recent years have all won trophies without a process and we've won nothing but with one. I know which team I'd rather be at the moment.
