With Manchester City and Arsenal out of the Champions League round of 8 knockout rounds last night, the four Champions League representatives of the Premier League this season were "wiped out", and it was also the first time in nearly 4 years that there was no Premier League team in the top 4 of the Champions League. As for the Premier League and the Bundesliga for the "fifth place in the Champions League" next season, the advantage of the Bundesliga is very obvious, and the chances of the Premier League climbing the hill are slim.
The Premier League has 4 Champions League teams this season, Manchester United and Newcastle United have "graduated" early even if they are at the bottom of the group stage, Manchester City and Arsenal are also fighting out of the knockout stage of the top 8, the last time no team in the Premier League broke into the top 4 of the Champions League, it has been until the 2019/20 season, and there are only 7 seasons in the entire 21st century that no Premier League team has advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
After the Champions League restructuring next season, there will be two new places for the two leagues with the highest Champions League points this season, Serie A has definitely got one more chance, and the other place will be contested by the Bundesliga and the Premier League. Before the second leg of the Champions League round of 8, the Bundesliga was slightly ahead, and the Premier League had the advantage of the number of participating teams, but as a result, Manchester City and Arsenal were out of the quarterfinals together, but the Bundesliga had Bayern Munich and Dortmund to advance to the Champions League semifinals, and now the Bundesliga has 17.642 points, which is 16.875 points away from the Premier League.
