Man U won the League Cup, Man U qualify for CL in top 4.
Mancs will win the FA Cup, Both in CL.
I believe the protocol then reverts to League places.

I did the maths.
CL teams will be the top 4.
City, Arse, Newcs, ManU

EL team will be the 5th team , Liverpool
and also the FACUP winner (but since Man U /city win fa cup , the 6th team Brighton get Europa League too)
Also the winner of the conference league possibly Westham get in here.

Conference League will be the League cup winner, but since ManU won that, it goes to the 7th team (Villa currently)

8th team gets nothing.

Are you drunk? There are 7 places that it. 5 to the league. 2 to the cups.

They both won the cup so places 6 and 7 get the places.

There are only 7 places in total.

So how do you get to 8?!

I'm amazed there's people who don't just use apps/sites which tell you the European places. E.g. livescore

This is not, strictly, true anymore though. Those who qualify through European victory but not league finish no longer take the league finish positions. So, theoretically, in a given season 10 English clubs could qualify, right?

Not applicable to this year, of course. But it's not a hard and fast limit of 7.

Nah, man..... It's capped.

If 5 get CL any season then afaik it's one less EL spot.

Top 4 CL
5th CL via the new UEFA loophole
6th EL (right?)
FA Cup winner EL
League Cup winner ECL (right?)
CL Winner CL
EL Winner CL
ECL winner EL

I think that's 11, right? In the wildly unrealistic scenario that all those cup winners aren't top 6?

But I thought 5 was a hard cap on per-country CL? This is confusing!

The 5 club limit on the CL is still in place, so if the CL and EL winners aren't in the top 4, then 4th goes into the EL.

This will happen to us soon, no doubt.
