Europa League 2025-26

Do people think that Unai will really go for this competition and if necessary drop off the Premier League?  By winning this we would get Champions League next season by only having fewer important games than League games. He could keep the top players fully available to win this and get us back to where they want to be.

We still need to aim for top 6. Although I can't see it.

Palace have submitted an appeal to UEFA against their demotion. Whoda funk it?

Decision expected by the 11th of August.

Three ring bullshit circus sideshow.

Which will then have an impact on our game v palace. Cause if they are In Europa conf then the newly moved Friday night game end of August will have to move again as they would have a conf game the day before

We'll definitely be aiming for top 6. You only focus on Europa when you're in the quarter/semi finals and it's almost impossible to qualify through your league position.

They’d still manage to turn us over 😂

Just reading that each time we play on a Sunday it will be televised and each time we will get nearly a million pounds in TV money. That’s nice compensation for the faff of Thursday-Sunday each week.

And yet we pay more for the privilege of the disruption. It stinks.

Yes, it makes me feel lots better.

After this weeks 1st leg matches, it looks like Hamrun, RFS, Zerinjski, Breiðablik, Brann and Shlebourne are dropping to Europa. Might be Panathinaikos as well. In Europa qualifying, only Utrecht and Shaktar Donetsk seem to be through to the next round.

I'd look forward to seeing Max from Villa On Tour's vlog of an away leg in Donetsk.

Don't they play their "home" games at Schalke? (Sorry to be boring)

Though they seem to be on tour for their qualifiers as they've been at home in Ljubljana and Krakow so far.

yes because this gives us a second way into the Champions League.

He’ll be well prepared for Donetsk then.

Risky strategy but a good concept and idea. We won't be competing top 5 this season based on whats happened so far this window.
