2016 Europa League Final


Recommended Posts

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

    • See that's the thing what I saw in game 2 was so embarrassing id rather they could just forfeit 
    • Are you arguing that his height deficiencies and footwork within the pocket have not been a present issue clearly seen on his game tape particularly in the games he struggled in? Because that's simply denying what everyone in this fanbase who have watched the games have seen. It's interesting how hardline BY fans here quickly and effortlessly pivot from whailing about being victimized to becoming the aggressor and hurling out allegations of bias and hatred. And at the end of the day while Bryce Young clearly improved significantly from the first two games of the season the reality of the situation is he still finished 42nd in yards per pass attempt behind Mac Jones and tied with Caleb Williams and 38th in passing yards per game behind the likes of Gardner Minshew Aidan O'Connell Drake Maye and Will Levis. Furthermore it took Bryce Young 23 games to surpass Panthers legend Kyle Allen's 13 games worth of passing yardage in 2019. So if your argument is he became a head and shoulders better passer over the course of the second half of the season the reality is we're still waiting to see that growth this season. And there is nothing controversial or vitriolic about saying so from the mind of a rational observer.
    • Cam regularly threw for less than 200 yards and nobody questioned he was elite. He averaged 219 yds per game for his career.  You seem to be way too hung up on yards as a stat.  By that definition Jameis Winston should have been MVP by now.
