Wyaaart u saiyyyyyy

i think alot of your points here lack validity. however, you're in good company. alot of posters here talk about attracting big name players etc and pretty much all of them ignore the fact that when rafa took over, we were already in a champions league position. having champions league football makes it easier to attract big names.

the fact that we don't have champos league doesn't negate the fact that we need good players but ultimately the question is, why on earth would a top european footballer want to come to us? the fact is that they don't and we will have to deal with the best of the rest until we get back into one of the top 4 slots.

we are not going to eden hazard lads and i think we all need to get over it.

Hazard will.only sign for lfc if......

Lfc have a top.manager in charge, in the summer
If lfc can sign 4/5 top top quality players in the summer.

And sign another top quality Belgium player, to make hazard settle in quick.

that would be another way of putting it nitemare, we are all probably in agreement that we are not going to sign another 4/5 top players in the summer as well as another belgian to hold hazzards hand.

i would suspect that we will sign 2 or 3 at a push. and none of us know if we will have a different manager so again...we are not getting eden hazard.

aRE.u.sURe?

I never say never drome, wen it comes to.signings players ie
Torres signed for us, cud of signed for any of the top.teams in the world,
Same goes for alonso, reina,
Sg stayed at our club, wen he cud of signed for anyone in the world.

If our manager makes some top.top.quality signings asap in.the summer, b4 and just after the euros, then players like hazard, erikson, javi martinez, etc etc might sign for us.

Never say never in.football.

we had champs league football in the bag when those players signed for us nitemare. when sg stayed we also had champs league football.

reina and torres signed after we had won the champos league.

there is no comparison in the two contexts.

could you elaborate more on how my post lack validity. and as for hazzard coming here i totally believe its a long shot but i wont say its impossible. there are couple teams in the running arsenal man u chelsea man city and lfc as the outside favourite, based off what he wants, a sure spot in the starting 11 champions league and the clubs asking price youll see we have a chance chelsea as the funds to purchase him but no champions league and no sure spot in the squad arsenal cheap and would never meet the asking price as for man u and mancity they wont guarantee him a spot with lfc we have the funds and he could choose any position he wants to play (lol), the thing about getting big names here is the potential for growth, if u got higuain or pato or a midfield myestro like granero or lucas young fresh talent these players would consider it. outside of mancity elegant salary package some players went there cause there was potential in the squad up to 2 season ago when they didnt have CL,its wishfull thinking but thats what our directors are for, plus theres alot of talent out there without CL experience example lucas from the brazilian league

that's working on the assumption of course that hazards only option is england, which of course it's not.

the point about validity was in reference to your previous point. maybe i got the wrong end of the stick but i think how it's phrased suggests that if rafa were in charge that we would automatically have the pick of the crop from spain. we did get excellent players from spain whilst he was manager but i doubt that he was the only influencing factor.

getting 4th this season is a long shot for us (not impossible but a long shot). if we don't get it though, we will be entering our 4th season in a row without being in the champs league and as it stands i think the odds against us getting a range of top class players over the summer.

i'm not doubting that we can attract foreign players but the cream of them (hazard, cavani, higuain, martinez etc) won't be coming to us. we will be competing for the pick of the rest in the hope that they adapt to the english game.

two seasons ago when players were signing for city was becuase the sheer lure of cash and the consistency with how they had been spending was a signal that they would buy the title in the near future. again, a player signing for city then or for us now would be incomparable.
