The Europeometer™ (2024/25) - NUFC Qualify for Conference League (at least)


Recommended Posts

I don’t see any reason why we can’t finish ahead of Chelsea and City aren’t exactly firing on all cylinders. Forest look like they’ll keep going but it only takes a small swing for us to close the gap to them.

Hope we can still get into Europa or the CL. Not really fond of the Conference League as a competition, think it lacks prestige for the number of extra games it’s going to give us

Good place to blood younger players coming through though, which we’re going to have a fair few of going into next season

Very true. Hopefully the squad is much bigger next season also

Really really want the CL but if we do end up in the Europa League or the Conference then we'll win either of them imo. The Cup win yesterday was the first and hardest one to win, now that's done we can move forward and deal with any club on this level, we'll have the odd hiccup but over 2 legs we'll put 98% of European teams away

Conference League is the best thing UEFA has done in ages, I absolutely love it. But saying that, you're right, we don't sign Tonali if we're in the Conference League that season, getting Champions League would be absolutely huge for the club.

One other thing with being in the conference league: it does give the club, and particularly management, more experience of dealing with the extra european workload over a season. Eddie's only had one 6 game European run in his career. Given how it looks like our previous finals experience helped us a lot with the League cup this year, just getting the extra experience would be a good thing. Whether it would be worth it I dunno, but experience is one thing you can't get for nothing.

Yeah, but it's experience against the likes of Shamrock Rovers and Borac.

True, but it's also experience preparing for premier league games and less familiar foreign teams with limited time and extra travelling and fatigue.

Don't see how it's even up for debate. We don't need to go for "easier cups" now that we have broken that hoodoo. 

 

Get in the champions league and it opens up the opportunity to get Tonali, Isak level players again, plus keeping the ones we have. All the while building the revenue streams and growing the global reputation. 

 

In no way will I be gutted if we miss out. But being greedy, I want the boys to go all out in this last ten as we have a great chance of securing top 5 again.
