Looks about right. I was trying to figure out what happens if Chelsea wins the Conference and finishes in the top 6 in the PL. I don't think their Europa place drops to another English club. UEFA does some kind of 'redistribution' across the qualifying clubs.

That makes their cup win redundant in terms of qualifying for Europa as they would either have qualified for CL or Europa though league placings.
This would be an extreme example but I wonder what would have happened in this scenario:
Top 5 in PL qualify for CL through coefficient
PL team wins CL from 10th position (CL qualification)
PL team wins Europa from 17th position (CL qualification)
PL team wins FA Cup form 14th position (Europa qualification)
PL team wins Conf from 11th position (Europa qualification)
PL team wins League Cup from 13th (Conference qualification)
In that instance you have 7 PL teams in the CL (although I am not sure if the 5th place is removed in this scenario).
4 teams in Europa (6th/7th & FA Cup / Conference winner)
3 teams in Conference (8th/9th & League Cup winner)
14 PL teams playing European football. Guess if this highly absurd scenario ever happened the majority of PL teams couldn't complain about fatigue from mid week European fixtures.

Champions League is just a marketing term. Only around 20% of qualifying teams have won their league ie been champions. When it comes to the main stages of the competition it's a cup not a league.

Tottenham had the better season than Arsenal. Not even a debate.
No one cares about a semi final. A second in the league.
No. One. Injuries? So what. Buy better players
Arsenal fans are the most annoying, mind numbing base. Topped up with Arsene Wenger having a whinge.

Comparing Liverpool to Arsenal is that not?

To me second in the PL is a greater achievement than Europa league in its new weakened format. By far

Arsenal had a better season but at the end of the day Spurs were more successful.
I’m not a fan of this sort of crap though. Like why is Arteta being asked who had a better season in his press conference? The journalist even sounded embarrassed asking it. It’s just cheap, boring content intended to feed the cesspit online banter brigade.

I can’t stand it. Even on the 5 live coverage they had a debate about who had the better season literally 10 minutes after the game just so they can have a dig at Arsenal. It’s so childish.

Tuchel won't last. Henderson, Jones, Gallagher, Toney, Madueke should not be near the squad.

I agree, and I hope that wasn't what came across as my intention.
Was just showing he's quite hypocritical when it suits, depending on whether or not he can spin an angle or excuse.

There'll be a few drop out. I would have gone for Bowen over Madueke and Wharton over Henderson.
