    Yes or no

    Do you want us to qualify for the European Conference League or not?

    Yes every time. A good chance of picking up a trophy and still, although a minor competition, it must help attract players we are trying to sign opposed to a club not playing in Europe.

    Yes.

    I want City to win the FA Cup. We will then be favourites for the Conference League.

    Good recruitment in the summer..let's get the first trophy and the monkey off our back.

    Yes… and all reasons assume City win the FA Cup…. I reserve the right to completely change my tune if a major upset happens 😉

    1. It’s another trophy to go for… and it’s a sh!t ton more likely we could pick that up than the CL this season.

    2. Opposition is likely to be a sh!t ton more favourable for us… which means we can add a fair chunk of European coefficient and improve our standing in future European competitions.

    3. It’s more TV money and income, all adds to the bottom line at the end of the FY

    4. It’s still a European competition, more of a reason for players to stay and players to come to us over teams not in Europe.

    5. It helps grows the brand by playing in Europe

    Agree with all of this. I'd sooner have been in the Europa League, but this is still showing that we're heading in the right direction. Also an endorsement of Eddie, despite an impossible season with injuries

    Yes..

    One because it's winnable..

    Two because if we did win it we get Europa League..

    Twitchy bum time on Saturday

    If we get there, I dont expect Howe to play our strongest side. At least not until the spring.
    Say, if our midfield is Bruno, Tonali, Joelinton, then we could play Longstaff, Willock, Miley in Europe. Saying that I hope we dont have same injury nightmare next season.

    We keep our focus on finishing top-5 and get the most out of Europe

    As a fan. Fk no.

    From the clubs perspective, co-efficient, coverage, publicity, income, brand, blah blah. Yeah go on then.

    Gotta say all of the above "benefits" will be limited as fk if it costs us top 4. You saw how Villa died on their arses at the end of the season.
