This is the only way we have a chance to get into UCL next year, so suck it bitches... this one's ours!!

 

 

 

 

(I can dream, right?)

 

It can definitely be done. There is some quality in Europa this year though. If Liverpool can get healthy, we could make a decent run as well. I expect Spurs to go far.

If the UCL winner does not qualify domestically then they have a playoff with the Europa champion correct?

 

  • If the Champions League title holders have qualified for the group stage through domestic performance while the Europa League title holders have not, the Europa League title holders enter the group stage through the berth vacated by the Champions League title holders. If the Europa League title holders have qualified for any of the qualifying rounds or play-off round through domestic performance, their berth is vacated, and teams of the highest-ranked associations are moved to a later round accordingly.
  • If the Champions League title holders have not qualified for the group stage through domestic performance, there are two sets of changes that may need to be made:
    1. If the Champions League title holders have qualified for any of the qualifying rounds or play-off round through domestic performance, their berth is vacated, and teams of the highest-ranked associations are moved to a later round accordingly. Similar team movements are possible as well, if the Europa League title holders have entered in force the play-off round of a certain Route while qualified for any round of another Route,[3] thereby vacating their berth in the last one.
    2. If the Europa League title holders have not qualified for the group stage through domestic performance, they enter the play-off round, where the section (Champions Route or League Route) they enter depends on whether the Champions League title holders are league champions of Association 13-54[3] or not. Unless the Europa League title holders have entered and qualified for the play-off round (League Route) through domestic performance, teams of the lowest-ranked associations are moved to an earlier round accordingly. For example (examples below do not take into account the possible moves due to the berth vacated by the Champions League title holders in the League Route and by the Europa League title holders in the Champions Route):
      • If the Europa League title holders have entered the play-off round (League Route) and not qualified for the Champions League through domestic performance, the third-placed teams of associations 4 and 5 are moved from the play-off round to the third qualifying round.
      • If the Europa League title holders have entered the play-off round (League Route) and qualified for the third qualifying round (League Route) through domestic performance, the third-placed team of association 5 are moved from the play-off round to the third qualifying round.
      • If the Europa League title holders have entered the play-off round (Champions Route), only 9 winners of the third qualifying round (Champions Route) advance to the play-off round. While the exact changes that need to be made are to be defined by UEFA as there is no similar precedent, a few possible scenarios are given below for the least unlikely case where the Champions League title holders have qualified for the third qualifying round (Champions Route): a) Two champions of associations 13–15 (except the Champions League title holders) are moved from the third qualifying round to the second qualifying round. B) The champions of association 15 (or the champions of association 14 if the Champions League title holders are from association 15) are moved from the third qualifying round to the second qualifying round, and the champions of associations 44 and 45 are moved from the second qualifying round to the first qualifying round. c) The champions of associations 42–45 are moved from the second qualifying round to the first qualifying round.

He better make top 4 now. No CL footy will be very disappointing next year.

I like Rodgers just saying. Also he hates Balotelli and I want a logical reason as to why

 

He set Balo up to fail yesterday and I'm not sure why. There was no link up play from the holding mids to the forwards. Can and Allen were forced to play the ball to the feet of stationary attackers, because we had no control over the middle third. Bad formation.

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
