No,


You finish bottom you are out of all European Competition.


Conference League
Prior to the first knockout round, an additional play-off round will be contested between the eight group runners-up and the teams who finished in third-place in the Europa League groups. The winners will progress to the last 16 of the Europa Conference League.
A pile of steaming turd after dropping off the wooden spoon

But if you win the Conference League you qualify for the Europa league, so you can play an under strength team and get yourself knocked out at the group stage again next season.

All whilst the fans think the season is a failure if we don't qualify for Europa football and then when we do the same fans are pissed off that we aren't playing the reserves to concentrate on winning league games to qualify for.... Oh you get the point
 
All this talk of the Conference League.
The 'Conference League' makes me think of a completly different level of football.
 
It's all a load of steaming old ****.

Progress isn't always progressIVE

The classic system of European Cup for champions, UEFA Cup for everyone else (I wouldn't bring back the cup winners cup though) was actually perfect in a footballing sense.

Elite competition for champions. Quality competition for others. Major trophies both.

But money ****ing talks.

I will go to my grave denying that Man U ever won a ****ing "treble"

"Champions" League my arse.

Didn't Man U win it in exactly the format you describe?
 
Oh no. No Lookman. Or Benkovic. What will we do?
Such a shame, Lookman is exactly the kind of player you need for a big European game with a tasty crowd.
 
So we could go:

Schmeichel
Castagne Evans Soyuncu Thomas
Ndidi Tielemans
Albrighton Maddison Barnes
Vardy

Subs: Ward, Jakupovic, Bertrand, Choudhury, Dewsbury-Hall, Soumare, Daka

Not a lot of defensive cover unless we're taking some kids.
 

As an aside, I think this is the 4th time this season that Perez has missed a game(s) due to 'illness',

Six of those seven spent some time sitting together on the bench on Sunday. It could possibly have been spread there or in a training session on Monday for those that didn't play the full match.
 
Dugouts might have to be changed. On a different note- if we progress to the next round of either competition can we get loans in that have already participated in a UEFA competition, or is it trophy specific?

Can we take one of the kids as CB cover? The lad that played some pre season games? Can’t remember his name… Ben Nelson?

Nelson is traveling

If I remember correctly, Wilf joined after playing in the Europa League for Genk then played in the Champions League for us in the same season.
