      That’s actually crazy. It’s one thing for a team like us or city to crash out cause we were unprepared and/or didn’t play well, but for teams like that to be guaranteed to not qualify just cause of the way the system works is insane

        It’s cuz this is Man United’s first season in Europe. Tbf I’m down with them getting knocked out cuz fuck 'em, but either way the system is very harsh. Paris have been consistently quite decent in France for a while as well, so for them it sucks as well that they’re unseeded, but again makes some sense considering their European record.

          Alternatively we should get a Women’s Europa League, which tbh I’d prefer to expanding the UCL, cuz it would give more spotlight to teams that can’t quite make the UCL cut
