I have also read something about 3 additional spots going to the Countries who have the highest ranking in the financial fair play rules (or something like that), so England could possibly be awarded another spot.
Heard on the guardian podcast today that it's just winners, if a team from the top 5 wins a cup than the 6th place team gets in, if two win than 7th (won't happen this year cause Brum won the League cup)
