We have enough depth in our squad to fight in Europe and in the league. Why do we keep blaming that tournament when Champions League teams have enough in them to fight on both fronts?we need to do the following things to nail down a top 4 finish
1) exit the europa league (might ruffle the feathers of europa league apologists)
2)Keep Adebayor injury free and motivated ( do not risk him when necessary)
3)Keep eriksen injury free too (Another vital goal scorer and creator)
4)Patch up the crack in our defence,Bring in a decent central defender ( lescott?)
5) Bring in a decent left back (Ekotto back?)
6)Do not reduce our depth, we have returned to one striker and rightfully so, means our attacking midfielders will get a shout
7) Reintroduce Lamela ,this could be our ace under the sleeve

BAE probably won't come back. I think that I remember Sherwood saying something like that in a press conference.
No one will come in either. Maybe a striker on loan, but otherwise it will be more yoof that will be promoted I think.
Well the majority of the shit sides who play on the other side of the world are out now, which leaves us with the ones who play in France, Spain, Germany, etc. Kane will probably get thrown in at the deep end for EL games in the style of Bentaleb, so we have some cover for up front. Plus we have Defoe until March. We have the potential to fight on both fronts.Rubbish, we do not have enough depth to rotate the squad completely. Our long haul trips to Russia,Modolva and Norway has disrupted the preparation of weekend games, not to mention the fans are negative because they have to watch all the other teams win on saturday. Playing wednesday night in italy/spain is not the same as playing thursday nights in some brothel on the other side of europe.
Bring back @ Randomitable 's line!Oh god, not these threads again, please.
Agreed on the competitive side of things - what I don't get is why some people think that it will require more points to get one of the top slots, if there are more clubs taking the points, then there are less to be had. Or is it that the belief is that the gap between the top 6 or7 and everyone else is getting bigger?Utd and Liverpool are similar in that they each have outstanding front pairs and a hell of a lot depends on that.
If Suarez/Sturridge or RVP/Rooney get injured I expect their team to fall away, if they dont I expect them to be favourites for 4th.
Ive fully expected Everton to fall away and yet they havent. They have lost only 2 all season, remarkable, and have strengthened smartly so far.
McGeady and Traore (assuming he signs) are very good players who can help Everton to results - so while I dont think it likely they will be there come the end of the season I think it would be wrong to rule them out.
We have some serious competition.

16 wins from 16, it's the only way to be sure.Oh god, not these threads again, please.
