Ok never saw this coming

Thought after a good victory against spurs and us looking good we would just do the normal and get defeated badly by a side in or around us

Not the case (unless we implode) at the moment

3-0 , could do with letting in 1 for my both teams to score bet 😂

Here's hoping we don't score 😠😠😂😂

Bit if a rejig with the team from us. Seeing if some of the squad players warrant a place. Think the answer is clear.

If the Wolves result holds out that’s 7th secured for them, which I think is an excellent innings for them, they’ve played some good football and that position is a fair reflection of what they have achieved in the PL this season.

How many places get Europa? What are the permutations?

They'll get europa if City win the cup.

Edit to say Leicester can still top em.

So how many std places for europa, is it 5 & 6 then +1 if City win the cup?

Main reason for asking is, Watford are out of that running now whatever? So hopefully nothing to play for tomorrow 😉

EPL has three slots for Europa Lge

1 for 5th place and one each for the winners of the FA Cup and Lge Cup

Because City won the league cup that spot goes to 6th spot

The last spot will be either Watford if they win the FA Cup or who is in 7th

Okay, if Spurs win the ECL, does a spot then go to whoever finishes in 5th spot?
No - the only way there is 5 CL teams from the Prem is if someone wins it and finishes outside the top 4 or a team wins the EL and finishes outside the top 4 , can only have a maximum of 5

So with Watford not being able to achieve 7th, they’ll save themselves for the cup 🤔

😉

So, what I want is Chelsea 3rd Arsenal 4th Spurs 5th and we can make posters of White Hart Lane with the caption “the only place in London to watch the Europa League this season”

All the answers here:

Maximum CL places in any scenario is 5 and 2 EL spots.

If Watford win the Cup, they get a higher ranking than team in 6th, first qualifier for EL is 25th July which clashes with Utd’s, Arsenal’s, Chelsea’s and Spurs pre-season tour.

I’m hoping Watford fully forget about the league now and focus on the cup!!!! Then we can hopefully go for an unheard of 3 wins on the spin and finish as high as possible this season

Don’t hold up much hope

We don’t do well against Troy deeney type players

The disgraceful way our league form is going, you may well get that wish

So, Cardiff relegated, I wonder how much Brighton will now fight tomorrow away to Arsenal, I was hoping it wouldn’t be decided today, but hey ho, we’ve just got to do our job and not worry about others, but it does take the gloss off a game where a team we’re potentially fighting for survival but now going into it knowing they’re already safe.

Let’s hope Watford rest a few players for their pending cup final 😏

Shocking defending, free header, not going to watch this anymore, foregone conclusion, just a case of ‘how many’ 😟
