If we do get it, like we should, we need to spend big in the summer.
No, we just need to build on our current strength. We have the squad numbers with Buendia, Mings, Ramsey and Kamara coming back. We need to add couple of quality additions at fullback and a top attacking midfielder.

Yeah I'd agree with that. I think the quality is mostly there, it's really strength in depth that will be the issue next year.

Is it ok to hope Wolves draw so Man City really need to beat Tottenham?  I know I should be confident in the Villa and Liverpool both win tomorrow scenario.

Thats on the assumption mings and buendia are ready. We already know kamara wont be so for me i think w e do players desperately and money is going to need tk be spent

Especially if we want to finish in top 4 again next year

Liverpool need to win tomorrow to have any chance of winning the league.

And their chance should be gone by the time we play them.

Could do with a drubbing to make our GD more solid as they could turn over the two shite teams. Or lose to both of course.

If they lose this, and to City, we don't need another point all season.  We're 7 clear, and they have three games left after this one. If they lose today AND to City, the most they can get is 6.

I hope it doesn't come to down to who's the most Spursy or Villaesque, but it looks like it's going to.

Draw at City and it would come down to GD unless we get one more point. Our GD IS looking good right now, but if they win big at Burnley or vs Sheffield it could be close. We need a big win from Liverpool (sorry) and a couple of straight reds wouldn’t be a bad thing, but I think that is possibly hoping for too much.
