Europa league this season = no champions league next

[nav007_2000]

Straight after a Thursday game, we at awful on Sunday. Most of the time we lose the winnable game.
Liverpool are now 6 points ahead and united are creeping up on us.

We need to get out of this ASAP.

Look at Liverpool, only competition is premier league and they are doing well at it

We have to throw this comp, trouble is, think this year is too late.

Levys let us down - again

Ah but if we go out of it we will have no excuse. I see Swansea had a good go at Liverpool today, but then again the swans have a huge squad unlike our paltry resources

We need 7 points to get into 4th place. We're not qualifying for the CL this season. I would rather see us go for it in the EL. I would love to see us win a trophy.

so does Champions league next year mean no champions league the following year? If you cant manage a mid-week competition and the league you dont belong in the champions league.

During the 2011-12, Redknapp played the youngsters in the Europa League games so that the competition didn't affect the first team. Yet the team didn't perform at the end of the season and even though we finished 4th, Chelsea won the CL and we all cried...

With the squad we have we should be able to compete on 2 fronts. Swansea didn't do badly today and they played Napoli on Thursday. Arsenal and Man City both played CL games on Wednesday and won yesterday. Today was just poor management and a team who appeared totally uninterested.

If we finish fourth, Man U would find some strange way to win the champions league and confine us to the EL like Chelsea did!

 

[gerishep]

By next w/end our season will be well and truly over.

 

[vicbob]

Rubbish, we have a good enough squad to compete in both comps. No one complained when we played champions league.
This is just an excuse......
Until we get a manager that uses the squad properly there is no point in playing in any euro competition

 

[AssaTM]

Had nothing to do with EL, misplaced passes and all sorts are not the cause of the EL, bad play and insistence on playing certain players is

In fairness Swansea played at home on Thursday so didnt have to do the same travelling as Spurs who probably lost about a day in amongst all of that. I just think the players looked fucking knackered from the getgo and weren't rotated enough between those games, its a crime Eriksen didnt feature today.

More importantly they don't lose to shit like we do and turn up for game's regularly something we could learn.
Oh and they hold their nerve and don't bottle it.

I'll certainly be rooting for united to win it now, it would be soooooo funking funny for pool to miss out that way

Yes !
Agree entirely !
I'd love to see us go all out now to win the Europa, I'm sick to death of finishing each season just out of the CL and with nothing else to show for it.
A trophy would be special, finishing 5th yet again zzzzzzzzzzzzz

I'm sure they changed the rules to stop this from happening.

No the rule change was to stop there being 5 teams from the same country. If united win it Liverpool lose out

Moot point anyway, David Moyes isn't winning anything.

We all said the same thing about Rdm.

Exactly, would love us to win it. Trophies are what the best football memories are made of and we have had only 3 in the last 25 years which isn't good enough for a club of our stature.
