Let's all change the rules because Liverpool bitch an moan.
Surely the answer to that is already obvious?S.L.R said:How long before it's acceptable to start a "would you prefer to come fourth and get Europa League, or sixth and do without the hassle" thread?
I would agree with you IF the CL were an actual league. But it's not, it's a knock out cup competition. So it's not a direct indicator of who is the best club in Europe. For example, if you follow the logic of your post then thus far Chelsea are a better club then Barca, be we know that's not the case and if the CL were an actual league Barac would be miles ahead of them on points.WilsonJet said:I hear what you're saying, Salmon, but take a step back and look at the big picture. The competition is called the Champions League. Suggesting that 4th place in a domestic league should outrank the actual European club champion is incongruous.

We are in the Europa guaranteed already.
The top 6 are in europe now as the FA Cup Europa slot can only go to Chelsea or back in to the league should they win the CL....
