Feels like you need to beat dragons, orcs and wizards to claim this trophy.The German Cup looks like something that must have been looted out of Charlemagne's tomb.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.
Something something cup magic
Looks like a prison toilet seat
I do like the FA Cup.
Not too big, not too small. It's got handles and also that top bit you can take off and feck about with.

Image isn't loading for me. I assume it's a picture of a hubcap.
Liverpool liked getting their hands on this in the 80s
I think the World Cup is a thing of beauty.
I like the Giro d’Italia trophy and I hate that I do.
Champions league is the best imo. Not a fan of the Europa league trophy, or the FA cup really.
Magnificent
Trophies with lids are just asking to be dropped and damaged.I do like the FA Cup.

I'm shocked that dingy looking Premier League trophy is considered anything but hideous by so many people. Silver trophy with golden tacky lions and crown, plus BarclaysBarclaysBarclaysBarclaysBarclays...

I really like this one, looks luxurious and far better than the league trophy.
The style (ornaments etc) is actually very similar to the "Meisterschale", only it's golden, and a cup.
You can also bet on which member of the winning team will be the first to put it on his headI do like the FA Cup.

I love this.It isn't football but Korean baseball has the right idea...
It would be great if a league somewhere went a step further and made an even more massive FF7 style sword trophy.
I think the Premier League one looks cheap and nasty. The different coloured metals don't go together at all, and the royalist symbols are incredibly tacky.
The Europa League (ex-UEFA Cup) trophy is very classy. I'm surprised it only dates from 1972; it has an almost Art Deco look. Its predecessor the ICFC's was just weird.

Most beautiful one for me. It's simple and nice with craftmanship and history in it. Its humble in looks compared to the others, which makes the meaning of it stand out more. Sort of like the Holy Grail scene in Indiana Jones
Yeah, the World Cup will always be the number one trophy for me.
The Stanley Cup is beautiful, the fact that they have engraved teams and players who won the championship since 1893 is something special.
Football wise the current Premier league trophy and World Cup are magnificent
It’s extinct now but I can’t decide if this trophy is awesome or shite...
the french league cup or coupe de Ligue.

MLS isn't bad looking.
The World Cup is just a piece of art.
The likes of PL trophy, just look like a blow up cheap tin cup you get on every god damn amateur competitions.

Amazed at the suggestions for the PL trophy as it’s truly awful.
The European Cup & UEFA Cups are perfect. The former is properly magical.
The Calcutta Cup is one I’ve always had a soft spot for. It’s not pretty, but is somehow appealing.

Great shout. It’s fabulous.
Cup winners cup, with the great Sir Bobby Robson.
Nice one.
FIFA World Cup trophy is my favourite by a country mile. A pure magnificent masterpiece.
Rugby World Cup trophy is pretty nice too.

Those handles look awkward.MLS isn't bad looking.
So do they keep adding tiers to the base so they can keep adding names? Are they going to do that indefinitely?? It already seems mostly base rather than cup...
Yes. It's a tiny silver bowl on an ever growing plinth.
1. World Cup. Every gram worth of what it represents - planet’s biggest trophy.

Same. However, the greatest trophy in cycling is the Paris-Roubaix one. Perfectly encapsulates the race.
Very good shout the King as wellI've always liked the Wimbledon one. I have no idea why it has a pineapple on top though.
The Champions League hands down.
Having finally seen Liverpool lift it, I actually don't really like the PL trophy. Looks too gaudy and reeks of the marketing of the league.

No chance. The PL trophy's tacky.
The one with the least developed pre frontal cortexYou can also bet on which member of the winning team will be the first to put it on his head
To be fair, it said Barclays on it for about 10 years, but hasn't been on the trophy for the last 5.
MLS isn't bad looking.
