If Wet Spam win the Conference League does that mean that 6th spot drops from Europa to Conference spot?

Don't think so. I believe 6th only drops from Europa to Conference if Sheffield Utd win the FA Cup, or Brighton win it having finished outside the top 6 in the league.

EDIT: Yup!

The winner of UEFA Europa Conference League is guaranteed a place in UEFA Europa League group stages. If a Premier League club win the UEFA Europa Conference League and do not qualify for the UEFA Europa League via the Premier League or the FA Cup, then they enter the UEFA Europa League group stages as an additional club.

If we can get a point this second half, beat United and smash liverpool at anfield I reckon we’ve got hope.

So far? Nothing will change.
I know it! I just wanted to underline, that thinking that something would change was mental. Today has been proposed another formation without 3 at the back. Oh, it has aged so well.

Just change it to “Spurs in the Premier League” and it will stop everyone asking to change it at various points in the season… Unless it gets really bad and we have to change it to “Spurs in the Championship”.

Need to hope that somehow everyone below us falls off a cliff so we can get an EL spot. But in reality we will be scraping a top half finish

Quite happy to completely give Europe a miss next season. Won't have as many games so can cut the squad and spend time on the training pitch instead of preparing for European games. We just about got out of a pretty average group in the CL and did nothing in the knock out stage and would just make up the numbers. Yes miss out on the revenue but not like we are going to see any of it anyway so let it hurt Levy in the pocket. Rather that than embarrass ourselves against top tier teams in the CL.

I'm 50/50

We have a lot of younger players now. If we go to 1 game a week the likes of Sarr spence and skipp literally won't see any game time.

I wouldn't be averse to Europa and treating it like Arsenal have done. Someone made a good point on a pod that although they didn't win it Martinelli and Saka almost certainly wouldn't be as good as they are now without all the Europa minutes and development they got.

It's a hard one to call tbh.

In all seriousness the club has to get the next 2/3 calls right otherwise this squad has a relegation battle on its hands next season
