I dont understand this. Finishing 4th is no different than fans being ecstatic about their team not being relegated.
Not being in that group is essentially being relegated out of Europe. Its a huge difference in competitions and as such available funds.
On top of which wouldnt it be even sweeter to see your direct rival have their destiny in their hands and then fumble the ball right to their worst enemies?
I dont know, it makes total sense to me.
Especially when you look at the vast gulf in quality in the PL. It really doesnt look like anyone is going to be closing that 1-2 gap anytime soon so playing for European honours looks far more enticing.
