timeEd32 Posted April 11, 2024 Share Posted April 11, 2024 I hate that the current setup made me feel anything but joy at Liverpool losing 3-0 at Anfield on a famous European night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it could be injury time on the last day with 6th to play for I'll read "season's over" cos we've conceded a throw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will drop to 8th if all of this happens and England get a 5th spot in the CL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad they got Man City and not Coventry! Expand Chelsea would have to win it for it to affect the league. If they finished 8th but lost to Man Utd in the final who finished 6th, and we finished 7th, we would get Conference football and Chelsea would miss out altogether if they finished outside the top 7 (this is assuming England doesn't get the 5th CL spot). Just thinking, I would be vexed if we did pip Man U to 6th, but they ended up winning the FA Cup and taking the Europa spot and we ended up in the Conference. I'd certainly take Conference football if offered right now, but it would still be annoying if this scenario happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted April 11, 2024 Share Posted April 11, 2024 It is nice this lot now starting to worry about Atl Madrid vs Dortmund out of nowhere when it looked nailed on they would be playing Champions League football a few weeks ago for the first time in their history (note I specified CL, not EC). https://www.villatalk.com/topic/24158-race-for-champions-league-20232024/page/419/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted April 12, 2024 Share Posted April 12, 2024 Only narrowly behind Germany, then. Hmm, I'm torn between what's best for Newcastle and the hilariousness of bad things happening to Villa, Spurs, Liverpool and Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Posted April 12, 2024 Share Posted April 12, 2024 I know it's down to wins/draws/losses for points but is it weighted by competition? i.e. do wins in the CL count more than in the EL/ECL? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaj Posted April 12, 2024 Share Posted April 12, 2024 Part of me kind of wants to get into the Conference League over the Europa League. We would have a decent chance of winning it and will be good fun potentially playing some very random teams. It is probably only the fact that the Europa League is another potential route to the Champions League that makes me want that one instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand If we are fully fit next season, or have an average of 3 injuries per game rather than 11, there is a lot of players with not a lot of minutes. Especially in CM.

Lish007 Posted April 12, 2024 Share Posted April 12, 2024 If Aston Villa win the conference league and get into the europa league but also get into the europa league via their Premier league position, do we get another EL spot? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Posted April 12, 2024 Share Posted April 12, 2024 I'd rather no european football than the ECL next season. Most will disagree. Buy the key players we need at CB, RW and ST in the summer, playing one game a week and a bit of luck with injuries the squad should be strong enough to challenge for 4th/5th and CL football for 25/26.
