well, it depends..
last season, this was the only cup MUFC got.
We got booted from UCL ,and "lose" the EPL when Chelsea got a big
lead.
So humbly, this is an impt cup.
For this season, while we are mounting a strong challenge in UCL
and title, I would expect SAF to give the 2nd team to take part in
these features, and keep the complacency or cob-webs out of their
mind.
Who knows who may turn out to be a gem? We got one in last game,
maybe, these pressure can turn out more.
