pleatout Posted 26 February 2016 Posted 26 February 2016 Ok, sit down and strap in. I think I've got this.......... Normally we get 1,2,3 in Prem go to Champions Group stage 4th Champions league qualifiers Europa League 5th Prem League FA Cup and Carling Cup winners The UEFA Champions League titleholder is guaranteed a place in the group stage even if it does not qualify for the competition through its domestic championship. If an English team wins it then 3rd place goes into the qualifiers If the UEFA Champions League titleholder qualifies for the UEFA Europa League through one of its domestic competitions, the number of places to which its association is entitled in the UEFA Europa League is decreased by one. If Man City win the Carling Cup & the Champions League we lose a europa league place The UEFA Europa League titleholder is guaranteed a place in the competition as a minimum in the play-offs. It will have priority filling a vacancy created in the group stage or in the play-offs by the UEFA Champions League titleholder. If Man Ure or Liverpool win it they go into Champions League qualifiers If the UEFA Europa League titleholder qualifies for the group stage through its domestic championship, this does not require any changes to the access list. If the UEFA Europa League titleholder qualifies for the play-offs through its domestic championship and there is no vacancy in the group stage, this does not require any changes to the access list. If Spurs win it they are likely to be in anyway through their league place and no one cares. Exceptionally, an association may be represented by five clubs in the competition if the UEFA Champions League and/or UEFA Europa League titleholder does not also qualify through its domestic championship. If the UEFA Champions League titleholder and the UEFA Europa League titleholder come from the same association and do not qualify for the competition through their domestic championship, one of the following scenarios applies: a. If the association is entitled to four places in the competition and both titleholders qualify for the UEFA Europa League through their domestic championship, the lowest-placed of the association’s UEFA Champions League representatives is automatically transferred to the UEFA Europa League (into the UEFA Europa League group stage where a vacancy is created). In this case, the association of the titleholders is entitled to one additional place (total of five) in the UEFA Champions League, but the combined number of places to which it is entitled in the two competitions does not change. b. If the association is entitled to four places in the competition and only one titleholder qualifies for the UEFA Europa League through its domestic championship, the lowest-placed of the association’s UEFA Champions League representatives is automatically transferred to the UEFA Europa League (into the UEFA Europa League group stage and the access list will be rebalanced accordingly). In this case, the association of the titleholders is entitled to one additional place (total of five) in the UEFA Champions League, but the number of places to which it is entitled in the UEFA Europa League does not change. c. If the association is entitled to four places in the UEFA Champions League and neither titleholder qualifies for the UEFA Europa League through its domestic championship, the lowest-placed of the association’s UEFA Champions League representatives is automatically transferred to the UEFA Europa League (into the UEFA Europa League group stage and the access list will be rebalanced accordingly). In this case, the association of the titleholders is entitled to one additional place (total of five) in the UEFA Champions League and one additional place (total of four) in the UEFA Europa League. If Chelsea and Liverpool/man ure win champions league and europa league then 4th to gets bounced to Europa League Worst case - 4th goes to Europa League and 3rd goes to qualifiers for CL.
