Is it like but six wingers, get the seventh one free? I mean they already have Kuyt, Babel, Benyoun, Maxi, Rieira that can play out wide. I'm sure some others could too. I would have thought priority spending would be an additional striker to fill the gap when Torres doesn't play. Ngog is not good enough really. Also a left back to replace Insua and another centre back would be my priorities.
Also I'm wondering as the Champions League seems a forlorn hope at this stage, do we really want to be in the Europa League next season. I mean there is a lot more games, a lot more travelling to destinations throughout the arseholes of Europe that seem to be only gotten to by Ryanair. This is on top of no real rest in the summer becuase of the World Cup so most players will not be rested or maybe injured and the priority next season would be to get back into the Champions League. Maybe being out of Europe altogether would give the players rest to focus on the league for one season at least. Or is the finanical benefits from the Europa League enough so that they must compete in the Europa League?
I suppose if they get to the Europa League final next season, it will be played in Dublin so maybe that's something for us irish supporters out of this entire mess.
