With a CL place up for grabs for the winner i think Poch will take this competition as a big opportunity to qualify.

The CL place for the winner will add a different dimension to this season's EL. Very likely the EL winner will come from one of four countries; England, Spain, Italy or Germany and it may well be the least difficult route for at least the English and Spanish club to CL 2016.
I would expect the group stages to be pretty lethargic as usual but from January the knock out rounds will be hard fought. The combination of a potential European trophy, prize / gate money, and a route to the CL will give Thursday nights real drama, especially as some of the past seasons Europa league QF and SF matches have already been more exciting than their CL counterparts.
We are vulnerable to banana skin before Christmas, depending on group draw. So I would like us to prioritise the PL and EL and use the league and fa cups for the boys and squad.
