It's one big league table. rather than a bunch of smaller group tables. The 8 best teams move directly into the playoffs. The remaining play a qualifying round in January to round it up.

I'm usually booked up on Wednesday nights so from a completely selfish perspective I definitely prefer us playing in the EL. I can near guarantee that I can watch every Thursday.Some great potential fixtures in there. Will definetly be wanting to watch as many of these as possible. There’s not a single team there that we should be fearing. Everyone is beatable there. Levy, let’s take this comp seriously please!
And this is the same as the top two winners of each group advancing? LolIt's one big league table. rather than a bunch of smaller group tables. The 8 best teams move directly into the playoffs. The remaining play a qualifying round in January to round it up.
Need a proper summer window, as a solid squad is required.
Not with the squad as it is.
IMO it will be a crucial phase to Ange mentality building, and it has to start now. He has to drill into the team every one of the competitions is winnable. Now in his 2nd season coming, everyone should know what his expectations are. Anyone not up to the belief can leave. Weed out the weak and non-believers. At club level too.
Looks like Gallagher, Gibbs-White and the Japanese winger will be early signings. Then I am guessing we need to get a few out the door before doing anything else.
It doesn't matter what he does if we have the same injury battened season as this and have no technical players to come in and do a job.IMO it will be a crucial phase to Ange mentality building, and it has to start now.

This summer is critical.
If we get it right, we should have a chance.
Why would we be out of the Champions League early? Ridiculous prediction.Honest to god... After all the anti Spurs bollocks that's been slung our way this week...
.honestly, who in their right mind wouldn't swap early elimination from the Champions League, for going deep/having a decent CHANCE (NOT saying we will) of winning the Europa League...
I know what I'd take in a HEARTBEAT!!
The CL 'Anthem' is overrated anyway!!
. .gimme Graham Roberts holding that chunky fucker above his head ANY DAY!!
Lot of games though and Thursday nightsI genuinely don't get the hate on the Europa League... Some PROPER European clubs in there... and not all Oil funded vanity projects for Middle Eastern Gazillionaires! (Ok, I just mean PSG & City!)
Coupla good old fashioned Eastern Block teams in there...
And QARABAG are back!! Yay!!
Wednesday - Saturday or Thursday - Sunday are still the same amount of days apart...
Cos we couldn't beat or Wolves, or West Ham, or Chelsea, lost 0-3 to Fulham, and needed last minute goals to beat Sheffield Utd, Burnley and Brighton...Why would we be out of the Champions League early? Ridiculous prediction.
straight in to the league phase and likely seeded in the top potAre we straight in to the competition or do we have to qualifying round ? If we are straight in are we seeded
The whole Thursday night thing is over played(no pun intended). No real difference playing Thurs-Sun than Wed-Sat.
