Re: The Race for Europa League
We need to win this thing, doubt we'll make top 4 next season so this is our ticket into the CL. We should be able to beat all the teams currently in it. The CL dropouts may pose a challenge especially if teams like Liverpool, Roma, Juve, etc are among them, but still this competition needs to be our #1 priority.

I like the idea, but realistically we shouldn't have a priority competition until after Christmas. That's when we'll know how our top four challenge is going and we should easily qualify for the Europa knockouts without too much hassle.
The Christmas period of games is brutal, and is usually when you know how your season is going to end up looking.

The EL is not an easy competition to win, especially from the start.

Re: The Race for Europa League
I don't think the start needs to make a great deal of difference. Our fringe players should be enough to see us through, maybe a few top seniors for the last home game if needed.
But we so need to take it seriously by the last 16. None of this playing Brad Friedel - or even Vorm. If Lloris is first choice, play Lloris.
Yes, it will need a good hard think about priority against the league. And it's also a bit more about luck. But we need I take it seriously first.

I like playing 'old school' European names
My preferred choices would be ST Etienne, Grasshoppers Zurich or Hajduk Split

Re: The Race for Europa League - Playoff Draw Friday at 12
I'd rather have a slightly easier qualifying game than St Etienne, to be honest. Potential banana skin there. We wouldn't be able to rest too many players.
I'm with AdamB - St Johnstone would be a nice draw. Short and easy away trip to Perth and a tie that we should be able to win comfortably with a largely second string team.

I'd prefer us to get those sort of teams once we're through the group stages and into the knock-out rounds

Re: The Race for Europa League - Playoff Draw Friday at 12
Does winning plenty of group games every year against some half-decent but not great sides still push up our coefficient much or can we only really improve it by beating better ranked teams like Lyon etc. in the later stages?
I'm just thinking about the day when we get back in the CL
