Was listening to Five Live and they were discussing an interesting scenario that could develop in the premier league. Spurs have complained about Stoke playing Man City 4 days after the cup final. Only one Europa league place is available via the FA cup, so if Stoke win they will qualify automatically for it. If however Man City win the cup Stoke will only qualify for the Europa League if City qualify for the Champions League through getting into fourth place in the Premiership. This leads to the scenario of Stoke possibly benefitting from losing to City in the league game, thus helping City get 4th and them getting into Europe via the FA cup place. I know there's a lot of permutations before this happens but will be interesting to see how it pans out.
