Lets be honest here, unless we invest heavily in January on new players (which i cant see happening), we'll need to save our players for the league games and the FA cup to a lesser extent... Out of the CL is pretty much out of europe for a club of our stature, no need to take this 2nd rate nonsense seriously....
what are the players saving themselves for though? they are capable of so much better but have not been showing it. besides injuries and managerial faults, they do have to shoulder some blame for the spot they are in.
4th spot perhaps ?!
Knowing Rafa we'll probably see a lot more Torres & Riera & Aquilani resting because of their injuries and i'd much rather he do that in the Europa league rather than risk results in the easier league fixtures... As things stand, salvaging anything from this season means getting a top4 spot, not winning a Europa league contested by 2nd rate European sides... Wouldnt prove a thing if we did win it anyways...
