And the other 8 teams that were overtaken to go from 14th to 6th.

I'm just repeating what I've read. I don't think that any teams come in at the later qualifying rounds. Coefficient will help us with ceding at the group stage, not qualification.

I guarantee participation will be moaned about next season, either fans, Jose, both.
Many appear to be joyous about the achievement. Not sure if that is because we've rescued something (anything) from this season, whether Jose has says we'll go for it or they've forgotten how we hated/ridiculed the tournament in seasons past?
We need to win something BUT the EL is probably one of the hardest to win. And if you don't get over the line don't expect to turnaround and it not to have had an affect on the rest of your season.
Qualification rounds is based on country ranking.

I think that the Europa will be slightly less of a handicap next season than normal. The compressed season means that the CL group stage will be player consecutive weeks too. You still have the extra round in the Europa and obviously, avoiding the qualifying rounds would be a real bonus
2 poor teams in Arsenal and Chelsea got to the final last season - an English side should be capable of going all the way in the EL.

Seems there is Tue/wed games as well?
win the home games and send kids to away games and you go through
Exactly. Just need to mix and match - I'd like to see us only starting say 3 or 4 on the Thurs (max) who are also going to start on the Sunday

Thursdays and Saturdays to play the European equivalent of the league cup. Na not for me.
Also it detracts from the Important competition for me which is the prem

Not just the players though. If Mourinho has the spare time to prep for and attend a meaningless B team match in the arse end of nowhere then he isn't working hard enough.

Its Jose, he’ll have already compiled detailed reports on all possible opponents for the next decade.
Jose will do a better job than we are used to seeing of rotation for these games too.

This is the one saving grace about this situation because i dont feel we have ever had a manager who took it seriously.

It's a different competition to when we've previously won it. Multiple teams qualifying for the CL has completely devalued it.
I do enjoy the fact that the man who left his family at home to go and live full time at our training ground during the pandemic, is classed as not working hard enough by Scara.
Again, another wonderful insight into life as an employee of Scara inc, and why there is probably no ‘manager of the month’ or ‘Times Best places to Work’ awards heading that way anytime during a certain persons tenure!

yeah, if it didn't have the CL place it would have about as much value as the FA Cup, none whatsoever
