I know everyone gets fed up of not buying players and improving the squad, but this is the best first eleven we've had for ages. Add to this some of the promising youngsters that should get a game this season, our team spirit and fight, and we should be able to maintain our position this season.
TBH, I'd much prefer to stabilise the club, pay back loans for a few seasons and secure our future, which includes keeping hold of our best players.
As has been said before I think, 5m a season is no longer going to keep progressing the club if spent on transfers and is probably the equivalent of 2 or 3 youth players making a breakthrough as a first team squad player, so why not pay money back if we can.
Today's game couldn't be much more important. Win, and it takes the pressure off another spendless summer. Lose, and well....I dread to think, I really do. I'm confident a Moyes rallying call and some good, vocal support will get us a 2-0 win. COYB.
