It's essential we get top at least this season. Simple as that. Couldn't give a toss who we do/don't finish above.
Going into the new stadium being in the elite competition will be massive for sponsors etc and if we are playing in our amazing new home against some Belarus Cup winners it's frankly going to be a bit embarrassing.
Would be nice for Liverpool to miss out as they clearly aren't fucking about and despite losing Coutinho, are willing to spend big to address weaknesses in their team. I'd put money on them going for Butland and with Keita coming in, will sort their midfield. They are potentially another centre back/Keeper short of an incredible first XI.
That happens, we finish above everyone.
