How will the current squad do in the CL?

I'm sure i heard somewhere that as long as Shalke don't win the Champs League, we would go straight into 3rd round of qualifying?

But back to your question, I think we would do a lot better than last year!

 

Yeah we are gonna enter in the 3rd round considering Schalke are as good as eliminated.

 

New keeper, CB & maybe a striker and i think were good to go

 

Would like to finish 3rd in the champions league and get a run in the europa league.

I think if we get a solid keeper, a new center back and one more decent striker i think we could have a run to the semis and maybe final in the europa league.

 

We 'maybe' would have finished 3rd in our group & entered Europa League.

PS: 4 good players GK, CB, Striker & maybe a Midfielder & we could do some damage in next seasons CL !!!!

Hail Hail

 

bit optimistic there. i would be delighted with a Europa League quarter final place.

 

Not sure we need a midfielder, only if they were top quality and went straight in. Maybe a right winger?

 

optimistic? the huns managed it

 

i think our centre backs would get tore apart to be honest maj is good but is slow and i think that mulgrew makes some very basic errors which will cost you in the CL however i wouldnt sell them they are fine in our league just feel we could do with a class centre back and an better goalie

 

Huns only made it to the last 16 but I see where you're coming from.

 

He means in 08 I think ..

 

We don't need a midfielder. IMO a goalie and a CB we'll be fine, if we can get a cheap striker then that would be good aswell.

 

aye i mean their uefa cup run

 

couple of defenders in and maybe a striker or 2 and we'd do fine and dandy

 

and since then UEFA have changed the rules of qualifying for the CL and Europa League making the Europa League a lot more competitive.

i like your optimism that you think we're going to get past the quarters however deluded it may be.

 

Once we've actually won the SPL and qualify for the group stages, i wouldn't mind finishing 3rd in the CL group and having a nice run in the Europa League.

 

This is the best we can realistically hope for until such times we have added to the current squad of great players we have right now and gotten rid of the crap like Loovens, McGinn and dare I say it, Samaras.

 

we need a keeper for next season if we don't buy foster then get westwood in on a free

a really good CB even though we are getting wilson in we could do with getting a 3m-4m rated CB in who is around 25-28 who plays in a better standered than the SPL and championship ie ligue 1 or bundesliga or a lower league spanish side

lennon may add to the midfield

and another forward is a must a target man who can score goals

then i think we will be fine and do well

 

without 2 good new CHs and a quality goalie we have no chance in the CL. With those and preferably a good striker too we could maybe dare to dream of a return to the last 16 glory days of Strachan's reign.
