Thread: Would the Europa League be that bad?

The Europa League is already more exciting than the UEFA cup, already people are talking about it -having one of the Sky Four in there helps, but everyone talks about Fulham's exploits too.

With a squad like ours we really have to go for it, dream high but don't be disapointed if we only get Europa because we all love the European nights.

It also, believe it or not, gives us some bonus points if a player is wondering whether to come here because lots of players in the last few years have said they want to come because we're 'in Europe'.

I won't be disapointed, we're having such a fantastic season. Who'd have thought we'd be here with five games to go?! Brilliant time to be a Tottenham fan.

Would the Europa League be that bad?

yes.....its a bit like when you were 15 and had to go to work experience = ONLY GOOD THING was u missed school for a week = but ULTIMATELY there was NO POINT.....<or if it helps further - think of anything else methaphorically that ultimately leads to the same conclusion = NO POINT>....

the europa league will be just a waste of energy and focus on the CL.

sorry but if this club wants to be a top one has to evolve. Im proud of the clubs history as well but we need to get to that next step and that is CL. We cant hide in our past if we do it we will never go forward

after todays performance i really dont think we will get forth place so i would be happy with europa cup we need to bounce back and get something of the next three games three of the hardest games we are going to play this season

In summary, lets have this discussion when 4th is no longer a mathematical possibility...it still is. When did losing an FA Cup game somehow affects where we finish in the league? Bring on Wednesday...Come on you Spurs...

All this negativity is doing my head in...I'm logging off...

Europa League ain't so bad. Those complaining about it being a drain on our efforts in the league need to recall that right now we're playing with near full strength squads in both FA Cup and Carling Cup competitions. I think we can sacrifice one or both those competitions for a good outing in Europe.

I recall Man City was given about 5 million quid just for reaching the quarter finals of the 2008/2009 UEFA Cup. Better money then the Carling cup surely.
