5 of top 8 in champ league. Even Tottenham. Is that how poor the rest of Europe is?
Shows you the quality of the prem.
Any other league in Europe Leeds would be qualifying for Europe. For ambitious players that why the poorer European leagues are attractive. Less money but more chance of European football.

Correct, just shows how far ahead the PL is of the rest of Europe. One handy bonus for us is that all those teams still in the Champions League, Europa League, or Conference League have now got at least 2 more matches to fit in with their PL programme.

More midweek travel to far flung destinations, more tiring additional games, more potential for injuries etc. Particularly Spuds and Palace, both just 2 points above us and Florists 1 point behind.

It's definitely had a negative impact on Palace and Florists this year.

I was really hoping Spurs and City ended up in the play-offs; we really needed them resting players against us!
