Kanji Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 32 minutes ago, Doctor Zaius said: 5th and 6th goes to EL and 7th to ECL then... Unless Chelsea turnover city and it's 5th in EL and 6th ECL We could well end up finishing 7th and not qualifying for Europe, which would be a massive shame but we’d have more leeway in summer with PSR? Or is that the 24/25 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Spurs missed out on CL that season when we fluked fifth under Pardew thanks to an English team winning the CL, now they'll miss out on CL thanks to English teams being shite in Europe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GideonShandy Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 If Italy and Germany get the two 5th place slots, is that forever, or do the coefficients get recalculated at some interval? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 (edited) How have Italy done so well in getting the extra spot? Just their progress in the Europa League? They have 1 team in the quarters of the Conference and none in the quarters of the Champions League, which should surely count for much more than the other two competitions. England had 5 teams reach the quarters across all competitions and may yet have 3 in the semis depending on results later today but are pretty much out of the running now? I genuinely wouldn't count Liverpool out by the way. Where does it stand if Liverpool and Villa go through? Edited April 18 by Decky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the points are weighted by competition, so a win in the CL is the same as a win in the ECL. Unless two of Liverpool/WHU/Villa get through tomorrow night it's pretty much over for the 5th CL spot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer it this way, the top elite teams will qualify to CL every year in any case. Taking into account the 5-7 placed teams in Europa and Conference almost equally makes a lot of sense considering they are usually the ones taking that potential extra spot.

Ginola14 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 just seen that Villa have two very winnable home games (v Bournemouth and Chelsea) before Spurs play again (v Arsenal at home) assuming Villa win those games, they'll be 9 points clear of Spurs - the pressure on them to then beat Arsenal would be massive if they don't beat Arsenal, I can see them throwing the towel in completely - even more so for the season with 5th not getting CL I would be delighted with 6th/7th but 5th would be epic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
