Well will Wanyama, Aurier, Dier, Dembele, Trippier and Winks all hurt or ill(with the former 5 of them to seemingly undergo late fitness tests), Poch may not have a choice.I think Poch will change very little. He wants to come third. I do too!
Dier back hopefully, Dembele back hopefully. Main change i hope we see is to give Lucas Moura a start. Probably instead of Son. Love Son, he was great for a while but has not been so effective for the past six weeks or so.
Wow so we don’t play a champions league match until the 18/19th of September, cool!
As you will see from previous posts, there were a few people who thought there was still a qualifier round. I watch a lot of sky sports etc and I hadn’t heard mention of this anywhere.No
Next season we need to work on learning the CL rules
Agreed and a Shame it won’t be on TV. I guess they reckon us and Leicester have nothing to play for so no point showing us.I would love to see Toby start in our colours for one last time. He hasn’t always acted the way we wanted but there is no doubting when on the pitch he is on par with Jan,

Anyway great bonus not having to play that early and extra games. But hopefully we will finish 3rd, hopefully you still get more money for finishing 3rd rather than 4th. Plus it would be great to finish above the bin dippers as well as ARSEnal And Chelski! That really would round off my season.
What a difference a game makes, if had lost the last game Chelski win, Liverpool win whole different ball game! Thin margins.
Probably because he was unemployed at the time.
who was unemployed?
Mourinho was their manager, and Rooney came on as a sub in the EL Final (their last match)

It’s £2m apparentlyFinishing 3rd v. 4th is worth about £5-6M between PL prize money, and 10% higher TV revenue from CL.
We should be trying to win.

Good info. Thanks for sharing. But in terms of the bump... in pound terms, a 100% bump as it’s double. Proper money as you point out.That is just PL money
CL TV revenue is split 40-30-20-10 among the top-4 finishers - so its a 10% bump for finishing third over 4th
This was the team I was about to submit. Would really love to see thisTaking into account those with injury doubts (Dier, Dembele, Aurier and perhaps Trippier) coupled with lethargic/shit performances of late (Son, Alli) i'd likely go with something like this;
Lloris
Sanchez Alderweireld Vertonghen
KWP Wanyama Eriksen Rose
Moura Kane Lamela
