England will have an additional club in next season's Uefa Cup after topping Europe's fair play rankings.

The place will be awarded to the best-behaved Premier League team that does not automatically qualify for European competition next term.
Manchester City are the side who would qualify in the current Premier League fair play standings.
The entire Premiership season counts towards the standings so the qualifier will be decided after Sunday's games.
City, whose final game is at Middlesbrough on Sunday, qualified for the Uefa Cup on the same basis in 2003.
Sven-Goran Eriksson's side currently stand fifth in the fair play table, behind Tottenham, Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool - who are all already guaranteed a place in continental competition.
Everton and Fulham are the other teams in contention to qualify, although David Moyes' side will enter the Uefa Cup automatically if they get a point against Newcastle at Goodison Park on Sunday.

Either that or we have a team of soft fuckers.

We don't have any nasty players really do we?

Good.

Despite his pint size, Modric is reputedly strong in the tackle. One more, to galvanize the spine of the team and watch us go ! !!
