I don’t think so, it would be possible to finish 4th and not qualify for the CL. If Chelsea and Arsenal win their respective European competitions and finish outside the top four, the 4th team drops out.
Markyboy-
I think the rules have been changed so that a domestic winner outside the top 4 would mean 5 prem teams in the CL, possibly 6 if arsenal won? My understanding is that the lack of places is then resolved by qualifying rounds at pre-group stage level but might be wrong.
In terms of Europa League since all FA/league cup finalists look poised to qualify for either champions or europa I assume 6th and 7th will grab those spots so Everton, spuds and the kopites to play a game of musical chairs.

And if United win the Europa League, would the sixth placed side also qualify?
(Just trying to involve the Kopites in the conversation)
