Yeah i agree but sometimes buying just back up to rotate doesn't work you could end up with to much quantity and not enough quality, imo in Jan if we add 1 or 2 players without sales we have every chance of getting 4th but we have to start by beating Villa and Fulham at home. I'd love Ba, Walcott and Michu in Jan just a pipe dream but Ba and Walcott would cost only maybe 15 or 16 million these 3 players would get us 4th. But I dont honestly think FSG are gonna give us much if anything.

Maybe a little misunderstood. I don't mean just back up players for the sake of it but quality to the first team so some of the kids we have playing at the moment aren't relied to play every week or full games like they are now.

Sure we do need to invest up front but if our squad wasn't so thin, we would be in a better place and be able to rotate. I honestly believe now that we are a chance to get fourth spot,(admitedly a few weeks ago i thought we couldn't) so if we do, then we will be in a stronger position to attract better players. LFC will be more attractive because players will see they will actaully play and not just sit on the bench and the players we have now will want to stay because they are the ones who will have earned us a CL spot.
The race for 4th, even possibly 3rd, is wide open at the moment and i think there are 6 sides who could fill both those positions.


I would agree with you and would add that our overall squad is not that bad, sure we do not have a top 4 squad but 6th definitely +-1. Our main problem though is striking position, we are very very thin there. Nothing new, we all know about this for at least a year now and not sorting this out last summer was a major cock up to say the least. Hopefully it will be sorted I hope first week of Jan.
