Europa League

With Chelsea winning the Champions League, does that mean Liverpool go straight into the Europa League at the group stage?
I assume because Chelsea are in Champions League we get their FA Cup Winners spot (FA Cup Winners enter at group stage).
Hope this is true so we don't have 2 rounds of qualifiers in July

At least it says so on wiki.

We definitely miss out on the first two qualifiers.. i believe we go straight in at the group stage, but we may have a round to play in before that.

We still go in at the third qualifying round. 2 rounds to play before the group stages.

LIverpool are in the 3rd round, Newcastle in the play-off round and Spurs are straight in the group stages.

Inter
Lyon
Bayer Leverkusen
Atletico Madrid
Napoli
CSKA

That is a strong Europa League.

Zedsdead, there will be seedings. We won't be drawn against any of the big guys. More likely to get Sigma Olomouc.

Ah, didn't think of that. Still, it's gonna be a tough, competitive competition. I look forward to it

I hope we play Arsenal in the 3rd Qual Round.

Arsenal Kiev that is.
