Same-ish.
I thought 3-5 years when they took over.
When the Premier League started enforcing PSR and creating new rules, I thought it would be 10 years.
In all honesty I thought that the League Cup was a cup that we should be looking to win, but would always face a difficult fixture somewhere along the lines. I thought our best hope for a cup would have came through the FA Cup, or the Europa League/Conference League.
