Tbf, it was 99.99% guaranteed already. It didn’t really need Arsenal to do that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I still don't like Villa, I know longer hate them. Still can't bring myself to want them to win the CL mind. Or any other English club. These are our rivals really. Hate Villa. Hope they beat Arsenal in the final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted Wednesday at 06:51 Share Posted Wednesday at 06:51 As much as I’m glad they won because it confirms England’s 5th place, even though it was happening in anyway, I want them to lose. I want all the English teams to lose and go out. The Champions League I don’t want any other English team to win because of jealousy, the Europa League, or Conference League I’m less concerned about, but the clubs left are Man Utd, Spurs, and Chelsea, so fuck them.

PRL Posted Wednesday at 08:03 Share Posted Wednesday at 08:03 To be honest I think I’d be more frustrated with Spurs or Mancs winning Europa and parachuting into Champions League after season they have had. It doesn’t guarantee a turnaround next season by any means, but it gives them more of a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tisd09 Posted Wednesday at 08:07 Share Posted Wednesday at 08:07 I was having this debate with a mate the other day, he was wondering why I didn't want an English club to win the CL. Now I wouldn't begrudge Villa so much as it would be a big fingers up at the elite clubs but I have no real like for any of the remaining CL clubs, Dortmund would probably be my number one pick from here. As mentioned in the other competitions with the remaining clubs I have no desire for them to win. I didn't mind West Ham taking the Conference a few years back.

SUPERTOON Posted Wednesday at 08:33 Share Posted Wednesday at 08:33 Apologies if already asked and answered, but if we finish 7th I’m assuming that’s conference league ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be Europa League if a team above us were to win the FA Cup - so given Villa would be likely above us in that scenario, we'd need the cup winners to be anyone but Palace for Europa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think that'll depend on who wins the FA Cup, so if the table stays as is if Forest Win the FA Cup, that Europa League spot will go into the League as they'd have qualified for the Champions League so it'd look like: 5th: Champions League 6th: Europa League 7th: Europa League 8th: Conference League But if Palace win the FA Cup it'll be: 5th: Champions League 6th: Europa League 7th: Conference League Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harveys Barn Posted Wednesday at 10:21 Share Posted Wednesday at 10:21 It's a shame Forest have such a cruisy set of fixtures remaining. We'd catch them otherwise. It's going to be all about passing Chelsea and holding off Villa. Expect City to be fourth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about 5 teams going for 3 places to get to the CL (most likely). Having said that, things can change. Edited Wednesday at 10:23 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
