Belgium National Team is looking real good heading into Euro 16. I was very proud of how tough the US played you guys in the WC. Also that's cool as hell some one from Belgium is a Panthers fan. Usually you never hear of a European NFL fan outside a handful in the UK

Yeah, you guys did a great job. I do expect some great things from the US team next World Cup, I have a feeling that soccer is becoming more and more popular over there?

after football, baseball, basketball, soccer is still a 4th-rate sport at best along with tennis, golf, hockey, volleyball, NASCAR, and so on. Put in this way: a lot of our major colleges don't even field a men's soccer team while they field like ten other men's sports teams. But at least we don't wet the bed like England has been doing for what seems like forever now. lol

ManU officially 4th place. #2 spot is still in play between City and Arsenal.

sucks. UCL was so nice this year without having to hear about them.

Oh I do agree. Manchester United = Dallas Cowboys

Quite honestly, I do find the threads annoying to go through with useless twitter posts spammed for an entire page.

Tell me about it. Most of us know useless information when we see it. Go thru pages of garbage to find something substantial is sometimes just not worth it.

Looks like Top 4 is pretty much set. I can't see Manchester City losing to Southy at home. At worst, I see a draw.

 

1) Chelsea

2) City

3) Arsenal

4) ManUre

 

Liverpool could very well lose 5th place, and probably should have already by now. I think we get Europa regardless, due to Fair Play.

Rodgers showed this year he doesn't give a poo about Europa anyways.... decided to focus on FA cup and finishing top 4 (boy that turned out to be a good decision huh).  Dumb on Rodgers part, Europa offers a direct route to the champions league now

BR's European record is poo, that's definitely true. If he's still manager next year, he better learn to love it. Because like it or not, that's additional TV and match-day revenue and, like you said, a chance to qualify for UCL.

The Europa rules changed - if a cup winner qualifies for the CL, then the Europa spot goes to the next spot down the league standings and not cup runner-up. Since Chelsea won, now 5 and 6 qualify for Europa. Arsenal winning the FA cup would bring 7th place in the mix.

So Liverpool, Spurs and Saints go to Europa? Well, Europa league just got interesting! Saints definitely deserved Europa!

Ah, I thought one of those spots would go to Fair Play recipient, but apparently it just adds another spot. Prem could get 4 clubs into Europa.
