This was the latest sign to me of how little Eddie trusts ASM. 2-1 up, tired legs everywhere, literally no options to improve the midfield, their possession starting to move higher up the pitch, and counter attacking opportunities that were screaming for Saint Maximin. But he persists with what we have until the game is won. I'm pretty certain he'll be sold this summer if anyone will pay a figure close to whatever our valuation is.

Yeah, assuming we don't do something insane like go on a CL run then finishing 3rd in the group* and going as far as possible in the EL is the most realistic scenario to boost both £ and our coefficient. '

The UEFA coefficient portion is awarded based on a ranking of the 32 clubs in the group stage. Each share is worth roughly £1M. The 32nd ranked club gets one share. The first ranked club gets 32 shares. If I'm following this properly (and I might not be because it's kind of insane) our coefficient will be 20% of the country's (England) coefficient from the last 5 year period since that will be higher than our club coefficient. Based on this current season only Maccabi Haifa would have had a lower coefficient, so we're probably looking at only getting a couple million from the coefficient portion.

That's the prize money allocation. But 30% of the payment is based on a UEFA coefficient, which takes into account the prior 10 years of European performance.

I just learned part of the CL payout is based on UEFA coefficient. They really have created a self-perpetuating system in as many ways as possible. West Ham have basically gotten themselves Europa League level earnings by getting to the Conference final.

If the club put together a season long highlights video I'm going to watch it at least 100 times this summer.

Think you’re alone on an island with that. We got fucking robbed at Anfield, their fans are somehow more annoying, and most importantly I think no CL football could have an impact on them. Don’t think it will change much of anything for Man United.

Anderson to clinch CL football with his first goal. The cherry on top of a dream season.

Now we’re wanting Liverpool to win so we can clinch it in style. This fucking forum

Look at how much everyone loves him. This fucking team man.

My son's favorite player is Bruno. We celebrated that 4th goal like two fucking maniacs. This season has had everything.

Outstanding. The only reason that game was even close is because of a couple great saves / misses and one counter attack. That will happen sometimes of course, but I can't imagine what a performance like that could look like next season with some more talent and also some higher quality fresh legs to bring on in the second half.

That was thoroughly deserved. And the possession stats flatter them. 70% of their completed passes were in their own half.

Go read the pre-match thread starting this morning. It's the new way of coping with nerves.

I was wrong...

I hope everyone can live with the 97%+ that 538 is going to give us.

It is so, so fucking close now.

holy mother of god

Our composure is fine. We have no legs left.

He must have said something very offensive for MIggy to act like that.

We are, IMO, 20 minutes from the Champions League. This is fucking agony.

Would like to see Maxi.

In agony and borderline tears. Looks like a bad one.

That's Willock done for the season.

Really feels like next goal wins now.
