Allo Allo Fellow Blues

Listen carefully I will say this only once,

I thought it might be appropriate at this time to put some thought to the
myriad of questions that are bound to arise regarding Europa League
Qualification.

A few weeks ago it seemed as though all we needed to do was qualify for the
FA Cup final and it was all but guaranteed.

However recent changes in form and league position have now thrown the
proverbial fox in the hen house.

Basically it’s very confusing and while I can’t answer every “what if?” I
will try and point out the nuts and bolts of it as I understand the current
qualification criteria.

1st The obvious one - If we win the FA Cup we’re in the Europa League

2nd If we are FA Cup runners up we qualify if either Chelsea and Spurs have
already qualified for the European competitions through league position,
which currently means within the top 5

However if Chelsea win the Champions
League they will go into that
competition as cup holders and fourth place becomes our Europa League
place.

In those circumstances we need Spurs to finish in the top 4 if play them in
the final

If we’re playing Chelsea in the final then we need them to either win the
Champions League or as stated above finish in the top 5.

If we don’t make the FA Cup final then it’s down to our league position and
all of the above comes into play yet
again.

If we maintain our current position
7th the only way we will then qualify
for Europa league is for all those above us to
have already qualified for either of
the European competitions and that
means finishing behind the RS and ahead of Newcastle

Other than that we will have to finish 6th
behind Chelsea and Spurs and again ahead of Newcastle
In that situation it doesn't matter where the RS finish or if they or Spurs or Chelsea
win the FA Cup or if Chelsea win the Champions League.

Got all that, I hope so cos my head hurts

I hope it helps and if Ive got it wrong no doubt one of you will tell me.

Hopefully it won't matter because we'll win the FA Cup .

Big C

Chelsea won't win the champions league {Ed025's Note - your right..

Lets just win the cup then

Graham Sharp, Alan Hanson, Peter Reid and John Aldridge Merseyside 11.

Reina (just)

Hibbert Heitinga Skrtyl Baines

Bellamy Fellaini Gerrard Pienaar

Jelavic Suarez

What does everyone think??

You can't argue with that really! Even the goal keeper is debatable! Toss up between the two really

Would of gone for agger over skrtyl, neville over hibbert, and drenthe over bellamy

From an everton fan only baines would start and that is debatable maybe jelavic although lfc will buy a top striker in the summer possibly soldado

Weres neville southall

I reckon only Gerrard would get into our team. I'd never play that buck toothed, burnt earred cheating RS scumbag ahead of Tim. {Ed025's Note - you may have to be more specific mate...that sounds like most of their team to me!!

Grow up the manager picks theteam thank god

Daniel agger over heitinga every day. i think its pretty even duell between baines an enrique, johnson or kelly over hibbert or nev {Ed025's Note - even between baines and enrique?....cuckoo..cuckoo

To the RS fan with the 3rd comment, do you think we we're all born yesterday? that was very, very naive mate...

Gerard a couple of years ago but now rather have felli and Lucas

moyes apparent line up for tomorrow..

howard

baines
distin
jags
hibbo

gueye
gibson
felliani
drenthe

cahill
jelavic

No chance- Heitinga HAS to play before Jagielka at the moment and Neville will DEFO play, Moyes won't leave him out for this game and i can't see Drenthe getting a start!

Howard

Neville Heitinga Distin Baines

Osman Fellaini Gibson Gueye

Cahill Jelavic

Bench
Hahmenham
Hibbert
Jagielka
Coleman
Drenthe
Anichebe
Straqualersui

Rodwell injured/ Pienaar cup tied

I think Neville will play instead of Hibbert bt wouldnt be surprised if Moyes picked jagielka and Coleman instead of Heitinga and Gueye. Hope I'm wrong about the last two. {Ed025's Note - you will be mate...its got to be johnny and sylvain...with nev at right back...surely

It has to be Heitinga and Distin. No doubt that Jagielka is and will be one of the best Ebglish centre halfs, but even before his injury this season Heitinga and Distin were in better form, Jagielka played well in the games against Swansea and Sunderland but at the minute Heitinga and Distin are our form centre backs so they have to be paired!! Distin pace and Heitinga reading of the game will keep there attack quiet

Hi everyone, i was just having a think after talking to a few idiotic RS fans. I was comparing signings, and who they would rather have. Carroll or Jelly? Gibson or Adam? Downing or Drenthe? henderson or Pienaar? I cant believe the humerous responses i got to these questions. I may be a tiny bit biased but i feel that all of our players in this list have ended up to be much better signings than all of theres, and how much money did we spend. I just want to put it out there as at the start of the season there has been lots of moans about BK and how hes pulling our club down. Anyone that said that i hope you have a good look at those signings and then try to say that he isnt doing everything he can do to help our great club. BK is a legend and one of the nicest guys you can meet, ive had the pleasure of meeting him 3 times now after matches and he always takes the time to stop and talk to you and listen. Dont know many other chairmans that would do that. So this is a big shout out to BK, you are a legend and everyone should get behind him, moyes and the players. Cant wait for tomor, i will be there. COYB. Any responses would be welcome boys and girls. Yours truly, Robbymac

I think 6 of our players would get in there team and i am not being bias.
Reina only just
Hibbert Heitinga Skrtyl Baines
Drenthe Fellaini Gerrard Pienaar
Suarez Jelavic

Osman should be in that team above without a doubt.
