if we won the the EL I'd take escaping relegation on goal difference
not sure my old ticker would tho
The idea that the league should be a priority over this competition, at this juncture especially, is absurd.
There's practically no chance we can qualify for the CL via the league. The EL can provide ±£20M in additional winnings, a CL spot, and a little thing called a trophy.
Entering the Champions League as champions of something instead of the 4th loser of the PL is a hell of a lot more appealing.

its shit or bust
we either hit the jackpot with an EL win or the season is the worst since escaping relegation in 1997
What are you even fucking on about? Give your head a wobble mate FFS.
Thats all well and good, but looking at our form we will probably lose to Frankfurt. Hope Im wrong and we can put in a performance.
Over half of the forum think we're winning this?!
You've obviously got some ITK about the world class manager who's coming in to replace Skippy
and the 4-5 world class incoming players
do tell
I won’t be as unnecessarily rude as some but tbh I’m not sure we will ‘cruise’’ top four next year mate!
Is my mind failing me or could you buy orange and green tictacs mixed together in the 80’s?

In which league is that then?
Nobody is suggesting we prioritise PL over EL.
The benefits of winning EL are obvious. Crashing out in semi finals or otherwise not winning give some happy memories ..... but no europe next season etc
With the squad we should have back fir in about 2 weeks we should be able to move up PL whilst winning as much as we can in PL, rotating the 20 odd players we have, so we have a potential alternate way back into europe next season if we di not win EL.
BTW moneywise, if we go on to win EL from here we earn about an extra 20m euros or circa £16.5m - each improved place in PL is worth £3m so improving by more than 5 places gives us more cash ! Sad but true ! Spurs need to be in Europe - if we win EL everything good !
Post moved to Clutter.
I don’t get why people think we need to choose which one to prioritize?
We are in 2 competitions, there’s no reason the players can’t stay fresh
There are airports at San Sebastián, Vitoria/Gasteiz and Santander, all pretty near though I don't know if you can get flights there from the UK. Also Asturias (near Gijón) which is not that much further away and used to get Easyjet fights.
We'd have to outperform Newcastle and 4 other clubs by 12 points in 13 matches to improve by 5 places, however, which won't happen.
Best we'll realistically do is 8th, but my money is on 9th.
