Would be very nice if we managed it. Euro footie is needed to help put us back onthe map.

It’s hard to guess with no fans, they add Urgency and adrenaline to players, the games a lot more tactical then passion.What league placing gets you into the Europa league this season ?
Assuming that City are banned next season and either Man U , Leicester , Chelsea or City ( all of whom should be in the top 6 ) win ithe FA Cup does the qualification go down to 8th place ?
So that would be top 5 ( minus City as they are banned ) CL
6-8 - Europa
Cup Winners already qualified or banned.
If that assumption is correct I think we have a fighting chance of making 8th place.
Based on the remaining fixtures here's my prediction for the top half of the table
RS
City
Chelsea 69
Leicester 67
Man U 66
Wolves 62
Spurs 58
Everton 54
Arsenal 52
Sheff U 52
Palace 48.
This may be an optimistic prediction from an Everton point of view and assumes that we beat Leicester , lose to Spurs and draw at Wolves and Sheff U.
I didn't bother with the points predictions for the RS and City .
With the win over Norwich we still have a chance of getting in to the Europa league but do we want to?
Yes the extra money alright and it raises the profile of the club
However we have a paper thin squad and there taking about starting next season at the end of September and finishing in May as normal.
Which means fitting 38 games in to 32 weeks, plus Fa cup and League cup. Then you add in the Europa league and that’s at least another 10-15 games(if we do well)
Something like 50 odd games in 32 weeks.
I think we be better out of Europe and used the congestion of other clubs to get ourselves in to the top 4/6
I want it but these players just arnt up to it.I want it, doubt we will get it though. Europe is great, not sure why you wouldn't want to be in it really.
My old man always against it, says if you're not in the Champions League then don't bother with Europe as it's just a hindrance. Has a team ever had a strong league finish during a season of playing in the Europa League? Not sure. I quite like it though either way, European nights are class and if you go the whole way there's a big reward.
