    Which would you prefer?

    Your team to finish outside of the top 3, thus not qualifying for the Champions League the following season. However you win the Europa Cup.

    Or

    Your team to fail to win the Europa Cup, but finish in the top 3, thus qualifying for the Champions League the following season?

    Depends on the team.

    If it's a small club, then win the Europa League, because chances are you'll be kicked out of the CL early.

    If you're a big club, then the Champions League because you'll be able to hold your own and attract bigger players.

    Yes he does the reality is they would have a VERY hard time qualifying for the groups. Unless they are gifted someone like Standard Liege again who they only beat 1 - 0 Rolling Eyes

    Finishing in the top four = finishing 2nd, 3rd or 4th.

    (Obviously not including 1st, as everyone would vote for winning the Premier League)

    This isn't about Liverpool. Answer the question as if it was your own team in that position.

    But, 2nd and 3rd = group stages. 4th = play off.

    I think that's what he's asking.

    Exactly, you don't qualify for the Champions League if you finish 4th, you qualify for the qualifiers.

    There is no need to take it so literally. Let's just assume that your team WILL qualify for the CL, even if it means going through the qualifiers.

    What, because the poll is not going your way?

    He's just using finishing fourth as an example. Not everyone supports a Premier League team. Neutral Why do you guys need to be so nitpicky about something that really doesn't matter?

    The question in the thread title is different to the question in the poll.

    You seem to think I care about the result of the poll, I assure you I don't. Forum polls are very unreliable, there's a very large self-selection bias involved, it really doesn't mean anything.

    Few hours, Kuled brought it up earlier.

    I wonder if you'd be saying the same if the poll was in favour of winning the Europa League.

    The question in the OP and the thread title are exactly the same.

    And no the questions aren't the same. When Tottenham played Young Boys nearly a year ago, they were playing them in a Champions League QUALIFIER, after finishing in the top 4 the previous season. They would not need to play a qualifier if they had already qualified.

    You're talking about the OP. The title and poll question are the same. He's just used an example in the poll.

    Did I say 4th? No. I said top 4.

    No need to be pedantic about it, but then again, that's what people do as an escape when they've been proved wrong.

    How have I been proved wrong?? I expressed a preference and found it strange that people would prefer to finish 4th in one competition over winning another. You need to grow up and stop all this trying to prove people wrong on the internet lark, you're in your 20s for fucks sake.

    I would rather watch Arsenal in a Champions League knockout stage than a Europa League final.
