Apparently not. Only two of the hosts will from what I've heard. Not sure how they will determine that

England and Ireland

they should let everyone go in qualifying, and the two highest ranked who don't qualify automatically should get the host spots

Yeah not a bad idea.

Quite like the idea of 'home internationas' championship in 2026 or something

Just do regular qualifiers imo with no one getting in automatically. One venue shouldn’t be enough to be considered a host nation and England are guaranteed to get in anyways.

There’s a good chance at least 3 of the 5 will qualify through the normal route.

Should be all of them or none of them.

Financially, for UEFA , it would make sense for Wales to automatically qualify, perhaps they will amend the criteria now that the venues are known.

There's no way 5 teams should be automatically qualifying.

Maybe after the events on the day of the 2020 final at Wembley, England feel they have more chance of being part of a joint bid, rather than hosting themselves?

I'm not convinced 5 countries should be hosting?

I tend to agree with you on this , therefore 5 host countries should automatically qualify.

Do you think all 11 host nations of Euro 2020 should’ve automatically qualified then? Where is the cut off?

5 countries automatically qualifying in my opinion is as ridiculous as 5 countries hosting, but they don’t have to be mutual.

I suppose there has to be a cut off and you’re right ,11 is ridiculous, but 5 seems feasible especially as Wales are one of the hosts. In 2020 nobody automatically qualified, but if they are allowing it this time it should be fair for all host nations to receive an automatic place in the competition.

2 spots make the most sense - give them to the 2 lowest ranked teams
