Would you rather Wales win the World Cup or City win the Champion's League

"Liverpool could finish 7th or 8th this season but still be in it next year because of previous performances."

Is this true?

Under the new system, proposed by Edwin Van Der Sar, clubs who finish outside the national league qualification (top 4) but have the highest co-efficient will take one of two wild card places in the Champions league. I think that's the jist anyway.

It is part of the Champions League expansion, there is the possibility of the League Cup being scrapped as a result.

It doesn't get any bigger than the World Cup. I'd even take winning the Euro's over the Champions League.

Ask the players which one they'd prefer and I bet they'd all say the World Cup.

Doesn't sound like it's going to help Liverpool next season.

The League Cup needs to become the EFL Cup.

Weird, I edited my post and it doubled up...

Heart and mind dilemma here. Heart says City as I would be walking on air for months.
Mind says World cup for the good it would do for the whole country and would knock rugger off the front pages for a long time.

Who would be getting the highest coefficient spots?

I don't know but it won't be in place for 21/22 qualification.

Ask all the players who play for Cardiff, to choose between City and Wales and at most 6 out of 40 would choose Wales.

Wales World Cup for me. I'd hate City to become a mega club throwing billions around which is the only way to win the Champions League

As lardy points out, the World Cup is timeless, England still bang on about 1966 but nobody really cares that Forest & Villa were European champions

Re: Would you rather Wales win the World Cup or City win the Champion's League

Wales without doubt, although there’s more chance of the City option happening. Once upon a time it may have been City but I’ve lost interest in the Champions League in recent years . I don’t think that will ever happen with the World Cup

Forest and Villa fans do.

A lot of other fans would disagree about Forest. Incredible achievement by them and Clough and Taylor.

A big deal to them, but no one else.

If Wales won the world cup, it would be mentioned during the opponent's build up for every match for years.

The English rarely mention 1966
