Izakaya Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Reckon we'll almost certainly be back in for Pulisic. Especially with the upcoming US tour too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes on how our teams do in Europe next season. Ideally we want West Ham to win their final and to get out of the group stages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawalls Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 23 hours ago, SteV said: Additional two teams in the revamped version of the ‘group stage’. One each to the countries with the best coefficients, of which we’re very likely to be one. Not sure whether you’d have to go through the qualifiers if you finish 5th, but will definitely get you in a some entry point. So a quarter of the league will qualify for the CL - at which point do we just rebrand it as it’s no longer the champions league. Let’s just call it something around a league that has the super teams in it, can’t think of a name just yet though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 The issue with the super league wasn't about the elite teams playing in it but about it being a closed shop. The idea or reward/jeopardy is fundamental to our game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ourselves and Italy have a fairly healthy lead over Spain and Germany, so for that to change there’s going to have to be a pretty ropey European season had by the majority of English teams next season, coupled with a very good one for Spanish or German teams.

That’s why I’m so excited by this top 4 finish this year. We get to step up our commercial development which hopefully leads to a better quality of player being brought in. And then there’s a better chance we can make it two years in a row given the extra place Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right actually, which is a bit strange (that they’ve decided to only use one year, not you being right ?).
