The so called "Big Six" or "Sinister 6" as I call them, have ducked the Premier League Owners charter, which would have insisted that any qualification for European competition be through league position or winning the domestic cups.
This is because Uefa have a plan in place, that when the Champions League expands to 36 teams in the 24/25 season, if there are "big teams" that finish outside of the top 4, but still within the 7 european places, they will be bumped up to the champions league.
I feel like this is almost certain to happen, so we will see most of the Sinister 6 in the Champions League each year, its what they want and its what Uefa want for their revenues and their sponsors.

The Premier League's 'big six' have been successful in fighting off an owners' charter after the league were unsuccessful in securing a majority approval.
Following the failed attempt from Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and the two Manchester clubs to breakaway and join the European Super League, the Premier League looked to implement an owners' charter which would force clubs to commit to only qualifying for the Champions League via “current sporting merit.”
However as per The Times, the 'big six' were reluctant to sign up to the proposal as they wanted to see if UEFA follow through with a move which would enable two clubs each season to qualify via their European ranking - or coefficient - based on recent performances in European competition.
The league has already bought in new measures to prevent a similar crisis by threatening clubs with a 30-point deduction should they join a breakaway competition.
Some Premier League clubs now believe that the idea of the owners' charter has been abandoned since it hasn't been brought up at the past two shareholders' meetings - but others think that the conversation may resurface in the summer.
The new owners' charter did also have other elements which appealed to other members of the top flight, including an annual commitment to support the England national team, as well as promote diversity and fight discrimination, player welfare and ensure clubs are actively trying to remain financially stable.
There is now also the possibility that the league may look to include some of the ideas in it's official response to the independent fan-led review being conducted by former sports minister, Tracey Crouch.
Whilst most Premier League clubs are opposed to Crouch's main idea, which is to introduce an independent regulator for football, they are prepared to adopt other recommended changes.
