2016 Europa League Final


Recommended Posts

ChuK9UaWMAAv-77.jpg:large

 

Liverpool are in the Europa league final against Sevilla (current back-to-back champs) on May 18th. This year, a spot in the Champions League is up for grabs. Seeing as neither team are on pace to qualify domestically, they will both fight extremely hard to win this trophy. It will be more exciting than another Madrid UCL final!

I love that they give a UCL spot to the winner of Europa now.

I have a question though.  Does the winner mean that country will possibly have five spots?  Or does the team finishing fourth in that league just go to Europa next season?

In the case of the Premier League, they would take the 5 spots place. Top 4 would still be safe.

If someone that is top four is in does the country get a fifth?  For example, if Dortmund had won, they already qualify top four in Bundesliga, would the fifth team get their spot?

In that case I think nothing changes and they get their Champions League spot from both winning the Europa League and their domestic performance. I don't think a 5th team gets a spot.

Just realized that winning Europa League places you directly into the UCL group stages. You do not have to go through the play-off round. Which puts it a notch above finishing 4th domestically.

So if you are fourth it gets you an auto then.

If a team that is already in gets the UEL slot then what nation gets the extra slot?

I don't think any extra slots are given out if the UEL winner qualifies domestically as well. Probably just sorted in early qualifying round or something.

La Liga had 5 this year, since Sevilla didn't qualify through standing. A

As long as the UCL Title Holders qualify for groups through league standing, otherwise they go to the final playoff round. Had Man City won UCL and not finished Top 4 in BPL then the EL winner has to play in the final playoff leg. And the 4th place BPL team would be the biggest Villareal fans since their spot would hang in the balance. If both title holders don't qualify through domestic league, then 4th place gets sent to Europa. This would've been gutting for West Ham fans had they been the 4th place team and kinda funny if it had been Man U

    • I think a lot of wrs are going to go in the second round before we pick.  There are a lot of wr needy teams.  I think there will be a big run on them in the late 30s and 40s.
    • Interesting that they met with Walker three times and Cam Jackson twice.
