I'm no expert either. That isn't the only criteria, if it was then Textor's 25% voting rights wouldn't be an issue
We wouldn't be "taking" Brondby's spot - we'd be swapping with Forest, and that would then cause another conflict between us and Brondby
Possibly. Maybe.

Hi Matt, UEFA's rules (5.02a) seem to suggest Palace are guaranteed to get the Conference league spot at worst at the expense of Brondy
Did you see this when writing the article? Not 100% I've understood it correctly, but it seems pretty clear!

Great insight from Danny Mills that Arsenal have dropped a lot of points from red cards this season
Terrible insight not to mention that 3/5 of them were really inconsistent decisions from the referee involved #motd #arsenal

What is the PL obsession with reverting to the "on field decision" when replays and multiple camera angles have demonstrated the decision is too close to call?
If VAR can't prove an offside or ball out of play situation it should default to onside or in-play. Instead it goes to the lineman's guess

Yeah he can usually keep the ball pretty well!
He did also fail to play anyone in for at least three really good attacks by taking too many touches. Which is the point I'm making, he doesn't seem to be enough of an attacker to start in the 10s - and won't replace Hughes/Lerma/Cheick at DM!

Franca was only on the pitch for a few minutes, but he got one real possession of the ball and instantly tried to beat his man and get into the box
It wasn't successful.. but I love the attitude regardless #cpfc

I still struggle to see where Kamada fits. He was fine today - but he's not direct enough to be the second striker, not creative enough to be the playmaker, and not defensively strong enough to play as one of the two DMs.
I guess he's decent to bring on if we're a couple of goals ahead? #cpfc

Every time Gundogan misses a shot for Man City I think "he'd have scored that if it would deny Liverpool a title"
And I'm sure every Liverpool fan thinks the same thing too #lfc #mcfc #leymnc

"Still trying to get Guehi done". Haven't heard a single thing about that from any Palace sources all window
Can't imagine anyone thinks it's realistic to sign him now if we rejected Β£70m in the summer #cpfc

We could have had a great title race this season if it weren't for those 4 or 5 really *bizarre* refereeing decisions Arsenal have had
Instead a team who've dropped 13 points all season have a 9 point cushion

I love the way Eze puts in those deep central free kicks. Stabs it forward with so much backspin to kill the flight of the ball and make it easy to attack #cpfc

I don't see an issue with getting those players on loan!
It's not like they've been blocking a young players development, if we were loaning Chilwell all it would prevent it Clyne getting minutes at LWB

Derby County results with and without David Ozoh.

Is that entirely because of Ozoh? Who cares. I'm saying yes. #cpfc #dcfc

Ipswich in 18th have scored 16 points in 22 games (0.73 points per game)
They are 11 points behind us. At their current rate would take 11 / 0.73 = 15 games.
There are 16 games remaining this season. #cpfc

At the start of the season I couldn't believe a guy with Kamada's credentials was playing as badly as he was..
Really hope this isn't just a patch, and instead it's the start of his transformation into a really strong player #cpfc

2G 3A is not bad for a player who's pretty clearly in a slump..
