Think we`ll do well to finish above Villa this year.
Chelsea will be a worth a shout for the title with no European Football if Pochetino manages to turn them around.
They won it with Conte last time they failed to qualify for Europe and it makes a big difference.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

The idea that the top 7 will always take 1-7 is flawed.
I can understand that Spurs and Chelsea not having European football should mean they will be well placed to get back.
But the gap between the least strong of the Big 7 and the rest of the league, is not that big.

In my view there will definitely be at least 1 of the other 13 in the Euro places.
(I suspect it won't be us though)

I feel we might still finish above spurs.

Doesn't matter, we'll get Champions League football by winning the Europa League...

 

[Djmiles]

I personally think Liverpool will have a super season. Their starting XI is as good as any.

Transfer window isn't even open and they're predicting the table already?

For the purposes of encouraging betting.

I'd bite your hand of for 8th, personally. That would be a successful season, especially if we can get through to the latter stages of one or two of the cup competitions.

Does 8th get Conference League, next season? ( assuming cups are won by a top 6 team)

Me too, as it seems certain other traditionally strong sides will be better next year than last.

 

[The Fits]

Absolutely impossible to say. If Spurs lose Kane they're a mid table team.

It should do as the PL is predicted to get a 5th Champions League place on merit but it’s not guaranteed and a disastrous campaign across Europe for PL clubs could affect that. Unlikely to happen but there are more unknowns this coming season for European competition qualification.

Winning the Europa League gets us into the Champions League...

 

[A1X]

More likely to get relegated than win the title?

BOO!!

So a quarter of the PL clubs would qualify for the Champions League ? That would be bonkers. Can't see UEFA offering us that.

Yes. A very safe prediction*. There's always more surprises than that

*OK yes not a prediction, a way of getting you betting on their site.

These are based on betting odds, you can probably bet on who will win the 24/25 PL, and form a table on that basis.

From the 24-25 season they CL is expanding and places will be given to 2 teams from associations with the highest 1-year country coefficient. There is a very good chance England could be one of associations. This would be in addition to the 4 places already awarded to the PL.

I don’t know if things would be further complicated if the Champions League or Europa League winners were PL sides who didn’t qualify for the following season through League Places. In theory giving even more spots to English sides.

This means during the season we may not be entirely sure where the cut off for minor European competitions is as it could depend on the performances of all of the sides in Europe, and could change from season to season for those reasons.
