Spurs embarrass the PL again

What is the new qualification process now ?

Points system
1. Each team gets two points for a win and one point for a draw (points are halved for matches in the qualifying and play-off rounds).
2. Clubs that reach the round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals or final of the UEFA Champions League, or the quarter-finals, semi-finals or final of the UEFA Europa League, are awarded an extra point for each round.
3. In addition, four points are awarded for participation in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League and four points for qualifying for the round of 16.

Coefficient Calculation
The coefficient is calculated by working out an average score: dividing the number of points obtained, by the total number of clubs representing a league in that season’s two club competitions. The resulting figure is then tallied with the results of the previous four seasons to calculate the coefficient. Where two associations have the same coefficient, the association with the higher coefficient in the most recent season is placed first.
These rankings will be updated after each round of UEFA club competition matches.

The coefiecient is calculated

See the league ranking in the link, EPL ranked 3rd, Seria A 4th, only a small gap seperates the two leagues .

It's really simple

Yeah that's not up to date. The top four leagues will have four places in the CL starting from 2018/19.

We are miles ahead of France who are in 5th.

There's not much of a worry that the prem will lose its four CL places any time soon. Uefa have ensured this.

After the Ranieri sacking, Spurs manage to cheer up the evening.

Thanks Darren

Wasn't aware of the new changes.

No worries, surprised you weren't. It's done Serie A a massice favour too. Especially as all four go straight into the group stages, where you get bonus coefficent points just for being there.

Uefa are trying to make it a closed shop for the big four leagues. United, Liverpool, Milan and Inter being really shiiiiit is hurting their brand as well.

For the record I'm fine with other fans taking the pišš when we lose to a mid table belgium team, but don't pull this patriotic buļļshiț out your aršê pls.

I support the English teams in Europe brostopher

Indeed, Seria A is the biggest benefactor here

Yes, thanks for that info, Zlatan. I thought we were still competing with Italy to be the 3rd (and final) country to have 4 clubs enter the CL - and we were losing that race. This new rule allows me to laugh more easily at Spurs' disastrous European campaign.

No worries.

We are actually winning that race with Italy, albeit not by much.
