In a way we've also been very lucky. This is actually the last season where the weakest English qualifier will still make the Europa League. From next year, they will instead get a place in the Playoff round of the new third-tier tournament, the Europa Conference League. Which features a group stage full of teams nobody's ever heard of, likely very little prize money, just as many games as the Europa League, and if you win the whole thing you only get a spot in the proper Europa League the season after for your efforts rather than the Champions League. UEFA's very own version of the Carabao Worthington's Milk Cup.
