Yeah, definitely seems more of a priority for teams this season.

Going to be some big clashes in the next round. Impossible for all of the big teams to avoid each other...

You hear that all the time but lets be honest, its always been a priority for a number of top clubs... aside form a small period aroudn the turn of the century (sound all 1900s there lol) the finals have generally been contensted between 1 or 2 of the top teams, the fact of the matter being that there are only 3 or 4 competitiosn that any team can win so its always beneficial to try and do well... see the list of finals goign back to 96
1996 Aston Villa vs. Leeds United
1997 Leicester City vs. Middlesbrough
1998 Chelsea vs. Middlesbrough
1999 Tottenham Hotspur vs. Leicester City
2000 Leicester City vs. Tranmere Rovers
2001 Liverpool vs. Birmingham City
2002 Blackburn Rovers vs. Tottenham Hotspur
2003 Liverpool vs. Manchester United
2004 Middlesbrough vs. Bolton Wanderers
2005 Chelsea vs. Liverpool
2006 Manchester United vs. Wigan Athletic
