I think they will be actively spending through the summer, more for depth than anything else. Dalglish has to put a bit more of his influence on the squad and we need capable replacements for the oft injured.
I disagree, I think there will be plenty of spending this summer. The new owners were always going to put money into our squad, and so far our players sales equal our purchases. Also, judging by the quality of players that they have been rumored to be monitoring, I think we will have some quality signings.

It sounds as though Ashley Young and Charlie Adam are very likely to sign, as well as Sylvain Marveaux who is out of contract in the summer. Other targets appear to be Benzema, as well as another winger or two.

I also don't think that qualifying for Europa league will have any difference on our chances to sign players. Players don't care about Europa league, at least the top players don't anyway. I think it is going to be a very exciting summer window.
