Inter got to the final last season.So do you get the same amount of co-ef points for a win in the EL as you do in the CL?
Italy getting an extra CL spot whilst doing fuck all of note in the CL would be a massive fail and indictment of this process.
Not sure that’s correct at all. Last nights results were shit, but there is a lot of football still to be played.

2pts for a win, one for draw in all comps.
I don't like this thread tbh.
I think our focus should be on finishing 4th and leaving our destiny in our own hands.
Inter are a decent team. City look miles better than anybody but nobody else outstanding.I did mean in terms of this year, but sure............ (They're probably benefiting disproportionately from Jose winning the conference league a couple of years ago too.)
Anyone expecting an Italian CL finalist this season?
We usually walk it. Blame United and Newcastle for being crap.Of course... And I'm sure at the club end of things it will be.
Where I do concur wholly though is that this little 4th or 5th side-saga every season is gonna get fucking tedious very quickly.

That's not a bad idea at all.Rewarding mediocrity. What a mess......
Here's a simple idea... Give an extra spot to whatever league generates the CL winner that season and drop all the bullshit.
Looking at that new format I don't even really want to be part of it. Come 5th in the league qualify. Then come 9th to 24th in your group and play a play off and still get through to the knock out stages. What about any of that is champions. Diabolical.
It makes some people a lot of money though. Football just getting sold down the river at this point.It's shit.
Perhaps worth looking at european results by country - as that's Spurs interest in seeing if PL gets a 5th place or not.
CL Results on Tuesday/Wednesday (round of 16) this week and last week :
Germany beat Italy
Spain beat France
England beat Denmark
Spain beat Germany
England beat Portugal
Spain beat Italy
Spain beat Italy
Germany beat Netherlands
Italy were way ahead in pole position to get an extra CL place, maybe this makes them less ahead
Germany were ahead of England to get an extra CL place, maybe these results narrow the gap a little.
Spain were a long way out of the running, hopefully these results don't help them too much !
Europa League and Europa Conference League tonight, which includes Liverpool, Brighton, Wham and Villa - key England v Germany match is West Ham v Freiberg where Freiberg start 2nd leg with a one goal advantage (gulp ..... )

.....And being left rallying behind other English clubs because of co-eff. points is so cringingly modern football. Fucking gross.

I bet the new layout lasts a max of 3 seasons before they revert to the one that’s existed for decades. It’s a fudge to combat the super league. That’s what it will spurn actually. A uefa super league of divisions.

Based on the results so far, England are now down to a 61% chance of getting an extra CL place.
Tonight is very important.
