If Arsenal win the ECL but finish outside the top 5 then they still enter the ECL next season as a 6th team. It would indeed move everything down one spot meaning it could go to 9th.
If Man Utd or Spurs win the UEL then they too go into the UCL meaning 7 teams from England. Neither of these...
6th placed teams set for the Conference.
Our best bet for Europe right now is the Conference League which involves one play off match before the full league.

5 UCL places are now guaranteed.
So here's the latest 'can we do it' stats.

in 2024/5 Villa have been to Bern (Switzerland), Brugge, RB Leipzig & Monaco but also entertained Bayern, Bologna, Juventus &...
Well put, but where are Man City?
Presuming Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City, Forest & Chelsea are top 5, that leaves Us with Bournemouth, Villa, Fulham and Newcastle chasing 3 spots, which is as you said.
Quite handily, we play all 4 at home.
My worry is Newcastle winning the EFL Cup and stealing a...

I watched an exciting game PSV v Juve where another Italian club bit the dust. Italy are now 4 from 8
BBC note that Bayern Munich & Dortmund are...
