With this cup and being back in europe the season is safe and definitely and improvement over last season although the performances weren´t that convincing so far.
But this doesn´t matter now, we should be looking forward to being back in europe, playing twice a week is important for the players and listening to Comolli lately on the interest of big players wanna join the "Liverpool-project" there doesn´t seem to be any stagnation in improving the sqaud quality wise due to missing 4th again.
If we manage to bring in a couple of top players on top of this squad we will be coming pretty strong with the likes of Kuyt, Maxi and Bellamy definitely staying.
