Liverpool icon John Barnes says they can win the league - if the board invests in the squad.
Barnes believes the onus is now on Fenway Group to carry on the momentum.
"Kenny's (Dalglish) had a fantastic start but now they have to build on that," Barnes said.
"The only way to build on that is to invest in the club to get better players, a better squad, a bigger squad, because I don't want the fans all of a sudden to look at this season and think next year we're going to win the league.
"We can win the league if there's investment but if that doesn't happen and we see Manchester City threatening, Chelsea threatening, Liverpool will then maximise the full potential of the squad to finish in the top five.
"We want to push on, and for us to push on, even with Kenny, we still need more investment in the club to get better players."
