Does anyone know what you get financially for the Europa league? I know the Champions league is where the real money is but surely the Europa must have some financial reward for playing Thursday nights etc?

I just wondered if it is actually worthwhile getting in to it - although for luring bigger names Europe is a must so there is more to qualifying for it than just money.
I assume there’s a fairly big drop off between the Champions League and UEFA Cup, but read somewhere that there’s far less of a drop between the UEFA Cup and Euro Windscreens Shield or whatever it’s called. Read at the time that it was one of the things that convinced the Welsh & maybe Scottish clubs to go for it - the money for them was basically the same, but they had a sporting chance of going further.

Purslow confirming we still have business we’d like to get done in this window. I expect at least one or two in - keeper and CDM, at a stretch another CB. And then a couple out

It's been urgent for about 10 years. Almost forgotten what urgent means.

We urgently need a centre forward. Or two.

I think we’ll get two, probably three more yet. They might not all be as rock n roll we what we’ve seen this week but there’s no way we’re done yet.

If the plan is to get into Europe this season then perhaps we should be looking at a centre forward upgrade whilst we’re at it.

I wonder if Aaron Ramsey of Juve would fit. He can play all across midfield and quality in possession.
Certainly is of required calibre

The problems that it would cause commentators are only a small reason why we shouldn't do that.
