REDS TO DEFEND CROWN

Liverpool have been told they can defend their Champions League crown next season.


UEFA has awarded the Reds a place in the competition's first qualifying round.

It means Liverpool will have to play six matches in order to qualify for the group phase and it could interfere with their pre-season tour of Japan.

Liverpool, who failed to finish in a qualifying place in the Premiership, will become the fifth English side in the competition.

Former captain Phil Thompson told Sky News the decision was a great one for the fans.

"I think it's a fantastic decision. It's a right decision," he said

Liverpool will have to start from the bottom. Their first qualifier is against some Welsh team. If a team do lose their place to Liverpool it'll only be because they lost to Liverpool. So it's all nice and fair Smile

The unfair bit is that the other 4 english clubs will have to share revenue in 5 parts.

Tv revenue yes.... why would a tv company pay extra when they cant possibly show all the matches anyway?

The hatred comes from 13 defeats in the league last year.
