By winning games.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk

Twente got bad luck by drawing Fenerbahce in the playoffs and Ajax and AZ have been poor. That's it really.

And arsenal and liverpool randomly losing games they really shouldn't have to Lens and Toulouse doesn't help either.

As a French wouldn't mind us losing again to Lens in order to batter PSV

Finally the people that comment on every "top 5 league" stats post that have Ligue 1 in it can just shut up

It is top 5 and will remain so, live rankings in November in leagues and coefficients alike are about as relevant as a redditor.

To me, it was never a question of if but when. NL only had 4 clubs in europe competitions after Twente's elimination, versus France's 6. Also Ajax clearly was going to be shit looking at the first few eredivisie games.

Its fine really. Good on the French teams for putting up a good performance
