I'd be happy with a top team because we need to prove we can win the big one at Champions League level. You can only do that given the opportunity. If we can get over that psychological barrier and beat a top team over 2 legs, not only will we believe we can go all the way but it sets us up for more trophies going forward.
Each season under Poch has seen us grow more and more. From beating the top teams at home in the Premier League, beating top teams away in the Premier League, beating top teams home in the CL, drawing away at top teams in the CL. If we can continue that and draw away and win at home over 2 legs we're nearly there. Once we get to that point the next step is to win away at places like the Nou Camp.
These are all steps towards a champions mentality.
