Correct. If you win it all, you are auto in it the next season.

Quote:

An exception to the usual European qualification system happened in 2005, after Liverpool won the Champions League the year before, but did not finish in a Champions League qualification place in the Premier League that season. UEFA gave special dispensation for Liverpool to enter the Champions League, giving England five qualifiers.[47] UEFA subsequently ruled that the defending champions qualify for the competition the following year regardless of their domestic league placing. However, for those leagues with four entrants in the Champions League, this meant that, if the Champions League winner fell outside of its domestic league's top four, it would qualify at the expense of the fourth-placed team in the league. Until 2015–16, no association could have more than four entrants in the Champions League.

Yeah, you are. I just didn't (and still don't) understand what you said they got rid of.

I'm probably going to freak out if we lose tomorrow.

I'm OK with that. Let's see what he has before we throw him into the fire in a must-get-a-result match vs Arsenal.

Yeah but what if Bane can't snap out of it? At this point I'd say starting Bran is just as much of a risk as giving Baba a trial by fire. There's almost no way Baba could be any worse than Ivanovic has been.
