Liverpool in Pot 2 in next season's CL, Where do we go?

Really glad we made pot 2 this year as it looks stronger than ever with Dortmund, Juventus, and PSG all being in it.

6th June seems late?

Just had a quick search but couldn't find much on it...

Seems a few reasons that are being said is : No major tournament that year, German Cup final is scheduled for the week before and Uefa had no other viable City to hold it so had no other choice than to hold it June 6th.

As I say couldn't find anything conclusive and Wembley had to bend over backwards to accomodate them the other year so not sure how true this is!

Surely the most simplistic solution is for City to become more consistent to earn the right to be a top seed. Yes it is a way for Uefa to ensure that the 'prestigious' clubs are guaranteed a supposedly easier route to the latter rounds but City will be up there in a few years anyway. Last season they only just missed out narrowly on finishing top of the group containing the champions of Europe so it can be done and the mould can be broken.

It's nothing to do with being consistent. We just need to qualify for 5 years in a row, and the fact that we're English virtually guarantees us top seeding. Obviously doing well would make it come quicker.

Okay well hopefully City will inconsistently qualify for it 5 years in a row haha

Anniversary of D Day (but 69th anniversary and Normandy a long way from Berlin so not that interesting).
 
This is about as good as it gets from me

Although November 9th 1989 is recognised as the date of the fall of the Berlin Wall, official demolition of it didn't start until June 13th 1990.

Therefore 24 years and 51 weeks to the fall of the Berlin wall.

That's what I thought he was getting at, but it seemed rather tenuous.

And for the record, most Germans are actually pleased that the Allies won WW II.
 
It looks like the Rags could make the EL afterall with Everton going into the Champs Leage if the below is to believed. (It has been taken from a spanish newspaper and was posted on the general forum, sorry I cant find the link).

This would be good for us as it will be a lot eaiser for the rags to get Champs League qualification next season with no european football next season. I would also love to see their atterndance playing against a team of Romainan waiters whilst paying £48 a ticket!

Seville are one point & one place behind us in this years final coeficent seeding so they will not take our Pot 2 place.


Everton and Manchester United reportedly could be given bonus places in the Champions League and Europa League respectively due to the on-going crisis in Ukraine.

According to this article by a Spanish journalist, the escalating tensions in the country due its dispute with Russia could see the five teams who qualified for Europe excluded from their respective competitions

The article claims UEFA regulations forbid teams from taking part in UEFA competitions when their country has issues of civil order.

Shakhtar Donestk and Dnipro finished first and second, therefore earning Champions League spots while Metalist Kharkiv, Dynamo Kiev and Chornomorets finished in the top five and gaining a Europa League place.

Should all five be kicked out then the places could be offered to the countries with the highest UEFA coefficient – currently Spain and England.

That in theory would see Sevilla and Everton – sides who finished just outside the Champions League places – promoted to the competition while Valencia and Man Utd would take their places in the Europa League.

Back in February Dynamo Kiev were forced to play a Europa League tie in Nicosia due to anti-government protests in Ukraine. However, Tottenham still played their tie in Dnipro as the situation there was not considered as dangerous at the time.

Despite that I would not get your hopes up about a bonus Champions League place for Everton, even if UEFA have changed the rules before they are keen to avoid having more than four teams from one country in the competition and such actions would also open up a legal minefield.

UEFA are unlikely to be happy with the possibility of a whole season’s worth of European games being played at a different stadium or even country due to safety concerns either, but that is probably the most likely outcome of any investigation rather than any bonus places elsewhere.
