Pep Guardiola has highlighted the potential importance of playing in Europe's top competitions after a tough season for the defending champions.
With Manchester City missing out on the second place, the second move to the level at Arsenal, a devastating raffle at Southampton, a serious slip that opened the door for those who closed the gap.

May 25: Fulham (A)
Points: 63 (play 35)
Eddie Howe's side flew high after he won the Calaba Cup and won Manchester United and Palace, but they were quickly brought to the planet with a 4-1 record over Aston Villa.
Their response was to beat Ipswich, but if Hippies were to return to the Champions League for the second time in three seasons as they faced Arsenal and Chelsea for the second time in a row before ending Everton's season as they were to return to the Champions League for the second time.
It remains to be seen if Alexander Isak's late penalty in Brighton's 1-1 draw was discarded one or two.
Remaining fixtures
May 11: Chelsea (H)
May 18: Arsenal (a)
May 25: Everton (H)
Points: 63 (play 35)
While Chelsea still has a good spot to make the top five, some of their fans will wonder how this ends after the second time in December. But they were the biggest winners of a home defeat against Brentford last Thursday night, as their hopes were in their hands.
Everton and newly crowned champion Liverpool then won a huge victory to restore some faith.
Of course, the Blues certainly don’t have a direct game, with the top five chasers Newcastle and Forest and family fixed cars against Manchester United being difficult. This will boil down to the last three fixtures of Enzo Maresca and his younger side.
Chelsea's remaining fixtures are as follows:
May 11: Newcastle (A)
May 16: Manchester United (H)
May 25: Nottingham Forest (A)
Points: 63 (play 36)
At Bournemouth, a brave victory is crucial to Aston Villa as Ollie Watkins once again demonstrates his worth. It's also a pleasant enough ending for the season for Unai Emery, with their last two matches against Tottenham and Manchester United - their focus is likely elsewhere.
The rest of Villa's fixtures are as follows:
May 18: Tottenham (H)
May 25: Manchester United (A)
Points: 61 (play 35)
Four losses in five games, a 2-0 loss to Brentford house loss on city ground, was a real downturn in Nottingham Forest, which also included a frustrating FA FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City.
A draw against Crystal Palace only partially prevented the decay, but it was a rather kind finish: both Leicester and West Ham appeared in despair. The final day meeting with Chelsea could be key.
"We have to find ourselves in ourselves. But I don't see (pressure), I see faith, desire and commitment," said boss Nuno Espirito Santo. "But the reality is that we are struggling with certain aspects of the game - focus and determination to be practical and to solve simple solutions."
The rest of the fixtures in the forest are as follows:
May 11: Leicester (H)
May 18: West Ham (A)
May 25: Chelsea (H)
