Personally, I feel like a team's first priority should be its domestic league, then the European Championship.


You're in the massive minority. CL >>> Domestic league and it's not really close. The only possible exceptions are situations like Liverpool who have gone so long without winning a domestic title but have recently won in Europe.

I can certainly understand the sentiment. I recently caught up on the Men in Blazers podcast and they would disagree with you. I know they certainly aren't an authority on a matter of opinion, but for the sake of spirited conversation they ranked it as:

1) Premier League
2) UCL
3) Qualification for UCL
4) FA Cup
5) Carling Cup

This obviously varies league to league, as Ajax winning the UCL would be much more prestigious than their winning the Eredivisie.

As Liverpool and Chelsea fans, we obviously prioritize that which is most attainable. For Chelsea, both are attainable. Which is why I would question the supposed decision to field a weakened squad. I think Mourinho is being the special one and playing mind games.
