this season null n void start the new season with the same positions as the end of the 2018/19 (last season) same champion/Europe league groups and go again. out of contract players can leave and you can have a summer transfer window. Just start as a normal season would.How would a season starting in 10-12 months be structured?

I appreciate no one knows how this pandemic will pan out over the months ahead, but to write off another season just to complete this one which is a mess isnt the right thingThe Euro’s?
If the closure goes beyond autumn then it would be impossible to have a meaningful 20/21 season.I appreciate no one knows how this pandemic will pan out over the months ahead, but to write off another season just to complete this one which is a mess isnt the right thing
A full new season starting in 10-12 months time? UEFA seem fairly determined that the Euros will take place in summer 2021. But even if they don’t there would have to be a summer break if the PL is ever to return to its usual calendar.this season null n void start the new season with the same positions as the end of the 2018/19 (last season) same champion/Europe league groups and go again. out of contract players can leave and you can have a summer transfer window.

The financial imperative to finish this season by July 31st is that the PL will have to repay hundreds of millions to Sky, BT & rights holders globally if it isn't. This directly impacts all clubs (including us) and it will be the main driver in getting it over the line as even PL clubs could go under without their main source of income.
Liverpool winning the title isn't the main consideration in this case. The manner in which they would win it is terrible anyway so maybe everyone should relax a bit about this as if we are being honest they were on the way to winning it at a canter.

wouldn't the next season start after the euros in august/september 2021 like normal ? that would seem logical. If we are going 12 months without football than waiting to start after the euros wouldn't be that much of a problem ?A full new season starting in 10-12 months time?

The thing is too as much as I’ve been thinking the one good thing coming from this disaster is the chance to laugh at Liverpool. From our point of view we’ve got so much left to play for and with Laporte and Sané back could end up having another truly amazing season.
