swisso Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 2012, i took over as Everton manager half way through the season. Man Utd - Champions League winners and FA Cup winners. Man City - UEFA Cup winners. Middlesborough - Carling Cup winners. Liverpool - losing FA Cup finalists. 9 clubs qualified for Europe! Anyone better that? EDIT: could have been 10 clubs, but the UEFA sporting draw went to Italy and Russia instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTwice Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 In the Swiss Super League, with me managing Vaduz, 7 out of 10 sides qualified for Europe quite often because I managed to finish in the top 5 several years. E.g., most recently: Vaduz top, and UEFA Cup (automatic each year due to being considered Liechtensteiner, not Swiss) Zurich 2nd and ECC Young Boys 3rd and ECC Basel 4th and UEFA Cup Aarau 5th and UEFA Cup Grasshopper 6th and UEFA Cup through Swiss Cup Luzern 7th and Intertoto Don't have a SS though, started the next season. Of course, that many from England is nothing special. They regularly get 8 each year and you had defending UEFA Cup champions as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin_ Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Spurs get in the top 4 and still miss out on the champions league... brilliant! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Shanahan Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Isn't that irrelevant? They got in on league position- and if they hadn't, they'd only get the UEFA Cup, not the Champions League! Even then they wouldnt as the place reverts back to the league if the winners qualify through the league, they changed it after Milwall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
