Doesn't matter what you call them but they have to be able to compete and deal with the messi's ronaldo's etc etc call them star players or quality players but we will need them if we want to be competitive in the CL or we could be back out of the comp as quick as we get in ,if we can get that type of proven player for 10 to 12 mil great but I can't see it !
we have to be in for players in the 18 to 25 mil bracket , can't see the point of qualifying only to be knocked out early ?
Plus I believe we are likely to be put in with seeded teams so it won't be a walk in the park and the extra travel and games will take it's toll as it does on all teams that we know for sure ! so quality in depth will be needed in my opinion
Compete with Ronaldo and Messi? I wonder how many players really can, are available and within our means. We are not yet in the CL and some wants us to win it already...I would say one step at a time, again.
