But would any 2 of those be happy with not playing many CL/PL games and only getting cup games?

I think if anyone of them are on form then Lamps has a job to do but that's hardly the case anymore. Players form comes and goes not to mention niggles and injuries come into play towards the business end of the season. As I see it, it's up to the players to perform and deliver. The club and board should always go for the best targets available.

I've had enough of going for average players for the sake of finding subs.

Definitely agree with you there, we have had far too many years of signing players based on a little bit of potential or the types that will come good in several years time (which they don't even end up reaching those heights) We need to sign world class players if we need to upgrade a position. Not sign players on the level of Zappacosta for example. Sure he's a good back up player, but we need to sign players who will slot straight into the 1st team

 

If we do quite well this season, say top 4 and we have money to spend next season it could become a dilemma.

Currently youth is being given a chance and it is delivering, if you bring in big names you risk breaking the dressing room harmony and the disrupting the hopes of the youngsters. 

I would be tempted if a world class keeper becomes available............
