That's my view too.We could sneak into them. Unlikely but we could. No chance of winning them though.
I'm more concerned about next season now. I assume we're looking to buy in the summer but who of our squad will be here next year .
Ayling, McNair, Greenwood, O'Brien, Thomas and Howson all out of contract.
I'd be flabbergasted if we hang on to Hackney. McGree and Jones with just a year left on theirs so they may be sold as well.
Big rebuild and a hit and hope that the new players gel quickly and are good enough.
I can understand why the club didn't throw money at players in this window, the odds of us reaching the playoffs are fairly long, even less likely we'd win them.
But I do think the club has organised itself better now than ever before when it comes to recruitment, so I have some confidence we'll bring in decent signings.
One aside though, we need to understand why we've picked up so many injuries this season, it's had a huge impact on us.
