Euro Vase


Recommended Posts

A small point I guess, but just curious about the mechanics. It's March 15th in the game, and I've been offered entry to the Euro Vase, which I accepted. However, the minimum EPL place I could mathematically fall to is third. Therefore, there is no chance I'll be in contention for it, whether I wanted to or not. So, why does the game offer?

Only thing i can suggest

Just the top divisions in Europe I think.

And it will exclude teams that are already assured of a place in Europe next season.

Plus if the winner of the national cup were to finish just below the team who are in the UEFA Cup slot say 6th in the Premiership, then the Euro Vase place willl got to the team in 7th I think.

If this is not correct then someone please correct me.

That's my point, i.e. it didn't do the above. I'm guessing Stevenage must have got it right.

True. Even the reigning Champions League winner will be offered a Toto Cup (Euro Vase) spot. And every European top tier league is offered one spot to the highest positioned team not already qualified to either the UEFA Cup or CL, regardless of the standard of their league.

Logic should dictate that direct qualification to Europe will supersede any Euro Vase commitments.

In Iceland it isn't an application for, so I expect some leagues are the same, its either a reward for finishing fourth or winning the domestic cup (the season I got in I finished fourth and won the domestic cup lol) so whilst in the premiership anyone can apply in other leagues is qualification only.

But yea, in leagues like the premiership, it is offered to every team, some apply, some don't.

in real life I think Reading (after 06-07 - obviously now they don't have to worry about it!) said they would play a team of youth players if they qualified for the UEFA Cup, because they didn't want to tire out their first teamers.
