The eight group winners progress automatically to the round of 16. There will be additional knockout round play-offs prior to the round of 16; these will be between the eight UEFA Europa League group runners-up and the eight third-ranked teams of the UEFA Champions League groups. Not much chance for us then mate getting to the round of 16 the way we’re playing. TheFamousPigeon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers mate, I did think my suggestion was pointless, just couldn't fathom out how we got to a last 16 from the group stages, so 3rd in the group sees you in a play off in the conference.....fuck me, it used to be if you lost the first leg by a couple of goal you were more or less out on your arse.....this format more or less guarantees European football into February Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Europa League will be very difficult this time round, a much stiffer ask to finish in the top two as the 3rd & 4th pot teams are all decent, even finishing 2nd means you get a champions league drop out Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I'd ask, as you're the go to man when it comes to all things Europe. How much money (roughly) will we make if we qualify for the europa league group stage?

A victory in the group pays €630,000 and a draw €210,000. Also, each group winner earns €1,100,000 and each runner-up €550,000. We also get TV money, unsure the value of that. It's increased if the scum go out. Between 3-6m Euros I think. Coefficient value as well. Getting there will be worth a minium of £10m I would guess with ticket sales.

Siam69 26,874 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 So we'll be in Pot 2 then. Was reading in London paper last night the taigs and West Ham will be in Pot 2 as well, if AZ don't beat them. Can't wait for the draw. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
