Unless they've changed it the spot goes to Chelsea, unless they qualify for Europe through other means, in which case the spot goes to the next best placed team in the league that didn't qualify for a bigger European competition.

This is incorrect.

Liverpool winning the league cup effectively means that European place will pass to the league and 6th spot. At the start of the season, the top 4 qualify for CL, 5th qualified for the Europa and the 2 other spots are reserved for the cup winners.

Liverpool winning - and bar a miracle, qualifying for Europe via the league, now means that top 4 still get CL, 5th still get Europa and 6th now gets conference league.

If one of the top 6 wins the FA cup and England get one of the extra CL spots - which is likely, then it will be:

1-5 = CL
6&7 = Europa
8 = Conference league

Within 5 years I suspect the top 10 will qualify for Europe

Don't think 16th place gets Europa this season

But on a serious note, isn't the rule that in the FA Cup the runner up gets a European spot if the winner qualified for the CL. Where as only the winner gets a European spot in the League Cup and if the winner qualifies for the CL then their Europa spot goes to the league?

posted on 26/2/24

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the losing finalist of the League Cup doesn't get in Europe. It's never been that way. It's always passed over to the league positions. FA Cup I think might be different but not entirely sure.

5th place gets top 4 this season doesn't it?

It’s not, think back to the 2019 FA cup final, Man City vs Watford. Man City won and Watford didn’t play in Europe. You have to actually win it or it goes to league position

Top 4 always gets CL yeah. Well since like 10 years ago anyway, they don't need to qualify. Seems excessive that 5th place now also gets top 4.

More the merrier I guess!

I just want us to qualify for the CL or at the very least Europa League proper (not that crappy Europa Conference thing though)

posted on 26/2/24

What happens if:

Brighton win the Europa League and end say 7th, and the PL is one of the top 2 ranked leagues in Europe, thus qualifying them for a 5th spot.

BHA would qualify for UCL as winners of Europa, top 4 get UCL as per usual, does 5th place still give a UCL spot or is 5 entries the maximum one league can have?
