Status of the qualifying path of Villarreal in 2021–22 UEFA Champions League

I find it is absolutely impossible that the edit conflict could be handled so I take this issue to here. The issue about the qualifying path of the Europa League title holders Villarreal. They should haven't qualify to the UEFA Champions League if they did not win the Europa League. I think in this circumstance, Villarreal should not be make the league position last season. As it also happened in 2012–13, 2016–17 and 2017–18 season, so I removed the league position. However, @Island92: keeps reverting this idea. As it would go to 3RR I decide to take this issue to here.

My point is that in the table each team features the league position, whether they qualified via other cup win or not. To match with it, should not Villarreal include the league position as well? Some previous editions show it, other don't. Island92 (talk) 11:40, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

The current format for the reigning champion guarantee starts from 2005 when Liverpool failed to qualify for the Champions League via league position and they didn't get the green light from The FA. I know you are pointing out the example for Real Madrid last decade. But afaik since 2005 non-league qualifier did not show the league position. Besides they are really not qualify to the tournament via league position. KyleRGiggs (talk) 11:47, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

I'm totally aware that they did not qualify via league position. Indeed we read ^EL, but, personal opinion, the league position should be kept anyway. The winner of the 20-21 Champions League (Chelsea) got the right to qualify directly for the group stage of the 21-22 edition (no matter which position they finished in the league), so why do we read 4th^TH for them and cannot we read 7th^EL for Villarreal? Island92 (talk) 12:03, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

(4th)^TH means, they obtained two qualifying spots - 4th of the league and title holders, but only one spot could be exercised. In contrast, Villarreal just has one spot which is Europa League. That makes the difference. For last season, both Bayern Munich and Sevilla obtained two qualifying spots, same to Liverpool and Chelsea two editions ago. But this time, Villarreal didn't. KyleRGiggs (talk) 19:40, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

Ok. What had Chelsea finished (10th)^TH for instance? Wouldn't have we included the position?--Island92 (talk) 21:21, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

We didn't. KyleRGiggs (talk) 19:09, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

Okay it made worsen right now. Thank to Frankfurt. New instruction to be negotiate now. KyleRGiggs (talk) 16:20, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

I would have kept the league position anyway. Island92 (talk) 01:00, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

I totally opposite to your stance. But seems no one in the discussion. If the league position being kept, then UEFA Europa League and Conference League would be a big problem. CW should not be used in my opinion. All clubs need to include league position. KyleRGiggs (talk) 03:55, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

"The labels in the parentheses show how each team qualified for the place of its starting round." very explicitly isn't it? We don't need to include the league position at the very first plan. Title holder is title holder, they qualified as title holder isn't it? Why we included is just because they always have already get the qualification by league position. However, in these years, Europa League winners sometimes cannot make the Champions League qualification, and Chelsea as the title holder failed to do so once.

template

Hello. I have been struggling to create a template which shows the position of a club on the log for the 2024–25 South African Premiership. An example of the template i'm struggling with is:

Pos	Team	Pld	W	D	L	GF	GA	GD	Pts	Qualification or relegation
1	Mamelodi Sundowns (C)	30	17	8	5	42	22	+20	59	Qualification for Champions League
2	Kaizer Chiefs	30	17	6	7	48	27	+21	57
3	Orlando Pirates	30	14	10	6	40	29	+11	52	Qualification for Confederation Cup
4	Bidvest Wits	30	14	10	6	33	22	+11	52
5	SuperSport United	30	14	8	8	43	26	+17	50

Updated to match(es) played on 2 July 2020. Source: Premier Soccer League
Rules for classification: 1) Points; 2) Goal difference; 3) Goals scored; 4) Head-to-head points; 5) Head-to-Head goal difference; 6) Head-to-Head goals scored; 7) Playoff; 8) Relegated (R); 9) Qualified to the next round (T)

How do i create it? can someone help me with a step-by-step explanation on how to do so. GREG (talk) 19:51, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
