Miggys First Goal Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Would love for Man Utd to drop off, Tottenham to fall away completely and for Villa to make up the top 4. Change is good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the only way we move up to pot 3 is if there is more teams who qualify for the Champions League pot 4 who haven’t been in Europe for the last 10 seasons than there is places.

But seeing as you mention it.. Our group would be a fucking nightmare for us presumably? I assume we'd be one of, if not the worst seeded team in the tournament if we make it this year? If we got there we'd be the 4th seed the others want to avoid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagMal Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 The push for third is on for me, both Brighton and Man U will be knackered after that game and Brighton will be beat up emotionally as well. Spurs will draw their way to the end of the season and Man U will hopefully have one eye on the final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) Doubt they will catch us but the only “serious” threat I see now is Liverpool. Mostly because of their fixture list. Having said that it would take a collaps for us too. Tottenham look wrong in many ways and have tough games. Brighton have tough games too. Wouldn’t surprise me if we end up in 3rd either.

Whole point of being in Europe is to see us playing against the best sides, travel to historic grounds etc. It’s not like we’re realistically aiming to win the CL next year so bring them all on I say.

timeEd32 Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Is there any benefit for finishing 3rd vs 4th in terms of CL seeding or is it purely based on recent European performance? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTFY While it wouldn’t be our first CL rodeo - and with our ownership, it won’t be the last - I would always want a group of big names. It must be depressing to be a Blackburn Rovers supporter, having only experienced one year of it, yet finding themselves in a group with Rosenberg, Spartak Moscow and Legia Warsaw. And finishing bottom of it. Edited April 23, 2023 by TheBrownBottle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 2 bigger names and one weaker one from pot 3 (like say Shakhtar or Salzburg this season) would be absolutely perfect. Probably should finish at least 3rd and extend the Euro journey, and have a shot at the Europa, and a chance to test ourselves against the very best. I still reference our wins over Juventus and Barcelona, far more than the Leverkusen's, Kiev's, Feyenoords etc. (even though that one was amazing).
