Brad Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 As usual, I feel bad for all the teams that were relegated, like Cardiff. Huddersfield gave it all they got against Man U even though there was nothing to play for and Manchester played like relegation was on the line for them.

Dmitry Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 ManU still has a theoretical shot at the Champions League. They thought they'd roll over Huddersfield, but good on H. for keeping them at bay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erwbol Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) Dutch football magazine VI has an article on their website where they claim the eight minutes where a replacement corner flag was sought were the most exciting of the match. Ziggo Sports tv analyst Wim Kieft* didn't feel like analysing at half time, and they joke he was right and that Ziggo should have cancelled the broadcast by turning the channel to black. The match was godawful, of course. *Remember Euro 88? https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xyr2ux Edited May 6, 2019 by erwbol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong: PL is allowed 5 teams in the CL. Right now ManU is in the 6th spot, one point behind Arsenal, with both clubs having one match to play. The Europa Cup winner will automatically go into the next CL. Could be either Chelsea(3) or Arsenal(5). Won't it give ManU a shot at the CL, if they bump Arsenal off the 5th berth?

Dmitry Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) https://www.premierleague.com/news/671047 *If the winners of the FA Cup finish in the top five, their UEL spot goes to the next-placed team in the PL yet to qualify **If the winners of the EFL Cup finish in the top five, their UEL spot goes to the next-placed team in the PL yet to qualify Should a Premier League club win the UEFA Champions League they will automatically qualify for the group stage of next season’s competition regardless of their league finishing position. A maximum of five Premier League teams are eligible for UEFA Champions League qualification. I'm still confused on that.

erwbol Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) If Liverpool win, wouldn't their top four spot go to a team from a certain country on the UEFA coefficients list? There was a lot of talk over here about the Netherlands rising three spots (so far) on the list to climb above Austria this season. It's a confusing business. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_coefficient Edited May 6, 2019 by erwbol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 I’d like to see Ajax win today and I think they will; Spurs have not played well lately. Moreover, if Spurs prevail, Liverpool will surely win and that is the last thing I’d want to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Spurs, my local team, two miles away. COYS!! However who as a serious football fan hasn't got a soft spot for Ajax. Great history, great legacy throughout Europe and a classic home strip too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
