We should be at or beyond the stage of having to pay inflated wages to get players to sign for us. Being champions instead of 2nd or 3rd would have helped in that respect. Pellers will probably be giving another year, either way he's the sort of manager who will struggle to get us over the line in a league campaign. he just doesn't have that nasty streak that you need. I used to be escatic with 40 points, now the expectation is so much higher that 3rd place seems a failure. Things were so much simpler back then.
I think barring our superstars we aren't paying wages that are out of line from what I've read.
I'd rather have the count than a nasty piece of work like mourinho any day of the week. Or a shit talking cunt like Rodgers.
3rd won't make me happy but barring winning it anything in the top 4 with a genuine title challenge is what I expect.
Cheers
