Settling for Europa League??  Source: Liverpoollfc.tv

Liverpool’s season spirals downward as they have now drew 2 out of the 6 games. According to Benitez, they needed to win 5 games and draw 1 to have any chance of claiming the 4th spot. So what now Mr. Benitez? Do you have any bright ideas? Liverpool are now looking at the high probability that they will most likely be playing Europa league or worst……. 

With the last Champions league spot now being occupied by Manchester City, Liverpool really need a miracle as the fate of qualifying for Champions league is no longer in their hands. Here is the reason why: 

Manchester City 6 points ahead with a game in hand.
Tottenham Hotspur 2 points ahead with 2 games in hand 
Aston Villa 2 points away with 2 games in hand


End of the season possibility :
Man City       77 pts
Tottenham     76 pts
Aston Villa    72 pts
LIverpool     68 pts




Liverpool is in a very dangerous spot here with a chance that they might not even make it to the Europa League. If everyone wins their games (discounting them playing against each other in those last fixtures), then Liverpool might just miss out on the Europe all together and that shows how badly Liverpool’s season has been. For a club like Liverpool, it should never even come close this type of situation. Liverpool may be mathematically still able to qualify, but with their other competitors having games in hand still to play, it looks highly unlikely that we will be seeing Liverpool playing in the Europe’s elite competition next season. That will definitely put a dent in their wish to bring in world class players.


Most world class players would prefer to play in the Champions League than to settle in the 2nd class Europa League. I wouldn’t be surprise if any of the star performers for Liverpool  wanted to leave the club for the lack of the investment that is put into the club. Gerrard’s frustration was evident when Torres was taken off during the Birmingham game, that shows how much Liverpool needed more world class players that can support the spine of the team. Torres also stated his feeling towards the current Liverpool squad, stating that they need a few more world class players if they were to challenge the top 4 next season. With only Gerrard and Torres to carry the team, it is just too much for them to bear. If they want to challenge for honors next year, the owners are going to need to invest big. Its only a matter if those 2 yanks are willing to fork out the money to finally help Liverpool which they have failed to do over the course of their ownership.
