what a great response.
agree with you TC, the "engine" MF in particular. de Jong can't really be faulted for the lack of creativity, but we are crying out for an alonso type player who can keep us motoring.
trouble is, where do we find him?

We haven't got a clue what our best team is compared with more established challengers. That's the negative bit. We will make UEFA and with the money available next pre season can have a damn good time and win it next year. I'm happy with that. I think it will be the next step, really challenge for the UEFA, top 4 and domestic cups next year. Learn the talk, learn the walk and then run off with it. Slowly comes the revolution.

I did in FM.
Seriously though, he slated us some time ago, didn't he? I don't think he'd come...maybe xavi or Iniesta?

I would take both if we could get them.Those 2 make Barca tick but i rate Iniesta the better of the 2.

Part of that process is to attract those players we need to fullfill that ambition. The CL is the only competition that will interest those top players.
We also have to satisfy the financial criteria that could be set by UeFA on CL qualification and the CL is the only competition that will bring in the money to help us do this.
The Europa League is a 2nd tier competition and brings little or nothing to the club.
