Relying on an Enzo dull as dishwater masterclass on the final day then.

in what way?

90+13: IT'S KICKING OFF!! Still we wait for the whistle. And it's getting very tetchy out there. Paqueta and Murillo engage in a bit of wrestling and everyone piles in.

Morato shoves Bowen in the face and perhaps is lucky not to walk. 

Referee Sam Barrott has a lot to sort out here. 

YELLOWS! Soler, Murillo and Morata are all booked.

The VAR are also taking a look. And still we wait the final whistle.

It’s looking annoyingly good for Forest again isn’t it?

 

Free hit against Chelsea now as its looked like they were destined for just the Intertoto in the last few weeks.

 

Chelsea are just as average as them and I have no faith whatsoever that all of Villa, Man City and Newcastle will get the job done next weekend.

since when was it this confusing to work out who got what, even the official premier league website where the below information is from is quoting an reporter 

 

UEFA Europa League

English football receives two Europa League places.

One is traditionally awarded to the fifth-placed finisher in the Premier League, but this season it will go to the sixth-placed team because England have received an additional fifth Champions League spot.

The other Europa League place goes to the winners of the FA Cup, Crystal Palace, after they beat Man City 1-0 in the final at Wembley Stadium.


UEFA Conference League

The winners of the EFL Cup qualify for the Conference League.

This season, Newcastle secured a European spot when they triumphed over Liverpool at Wembley, ending their 56-year wait for a trophy in the process.


How else can clubs make it to Europe?

So far, so simple. But things rarely play out as such. 
 

In addition to booking European berths by virtue of domestic performances, clubs can also do so through their showings in Europe. 
The performance of Chelsea in the Conference League, coupled with their final league position, could benefit another team.

 

Chelsea are fourth in the Premier League, one point ahead of seventh-placed Forest, with the two sides facing each other on the final day. Chelsea will then play Real Betis in the final of the UEFA Conference League in Wroclaw, Poland on 28 May.

 

Depending on where Chelsea finish in the league, their performance in the final could directly influence eighth place.

By rights, the winners of the Conference League get a place in the Europa League. If Chelsea beat Betis and finish inside the top five, there will be no change to the English allocation. Chelsea will qualify for the Champions League and no other Premier League team will get their Europa League place for winning the Conference League.

UCL - PL top five, UEL winner
UEL - PL sixth, Crystal Palace (FAC)
UCoL - N/A


But if Chelsea win the Conference League and finish sixth and Newcastle finish in seventh, or Chelsea win the Conference League and Chelsea finish seventh, the Premier League gets an extra team in the Europa League, and 10 in Europe, according to ESPN's Dale Johnson.

This would also mean that HALF the Premier League would be playing in Europe next season. 

UCL - PL top five, UEL winner
UEL - PL seventh, Crystal Palace (FAC), Chelsea (UCoL)
UCoL - PL eighth


For the clubs looking to finish eighth - Bournemouth, Brentford and Brighton & Hove Albion and Fulham - the performance of Chelsea is now their only chance of playing in Europe next season. They are the only team who could win a European title and finish in a position to cause this drop down.

In this scenario, we also need to assume Newcastle have finished inside the top six to allow their UCoL place from winning the EFL Cup to drop down to the eighth-placed team.


So the teams vying for eighth still have some work to do as they head into their remaining Premier League matches.

Why? They’re all playing teams on the beach.

Used be so much simpler when the Champions went to the European cup and second the uefa.

I've said for a couple of weeks now that it'll be a shootout for sixth but that both would be UEL. Palace winning the cup changes the complexion. If Forest beat Chelsea, the other games go as you predict and Chelsea win the UECL, then Forest and Chelsea are in the UEL with there being a dogfight between Brentford, Brighton, Fulham and Bournemouth for UECL.

lets be right tho, 1-1 into injury time, forest pushing on for a winner then get caught on the break:ph34r:

Man City and Newcastle will win their games. I'm not sure about Villa. They've surrendered a few leads this season against absolute dross.
