Hi Ed

Can you please clarify the Champ league rule for me having read different articles.

Now 4 prem team go straight into group no qualifying stages. CL winner get a place and EL winner gets a place.

But I've read that if TWO English teams outside of the top four win the Europa or CL then 4th will drop out.

BUT ALSO READ THAT IF either Arsenal or Chelsea win (other fails) 4th drop into Europa and no 5th team As Manu will be added

so is it both Ars and Che will have to win for the 4th team to drop out or just 1 of the two.

Cant see Chelsea winning but Arsenal have a chance as the quality is low.

this will make a very nervy 3/ 4 place battle.

{Ed002's Note - a. If no CL or EL winners then four sides in no qual. b. If two sides out of top four winCL and EL then fourth goes to EL. c. Two clubs outside of top four need to win, not one.}

So, does that mean if 5th place finish wins Champions league and 6th place wins Europa league, that 6th place get in and 5th doesn't?

🙈😳 If 5th AND 6th (or lower) BOTH win the CL and EL, 4th drops out.
