We are champions of Europe until the next club wins the competition, I’m glad that’s cleared up.
You were champions of the champions league until you were eliminated from the competition this season.
I’m glad that’s cleared up.

You’ve been deposed. (Is that the right word?)
The throne is open. Waiting for someone to claim it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah that's great. However we're current champions.
I knew you were a bit thick but this is embarrassing stuff.
I've used Google for you, to help you understand what's obvious to everybody else and yet you still don't get it. You're beyond help.
I've lost a few IQ points having read your comments here and on that note, I'm out.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can you defend your title currently?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So man city aren't the PL champions?
So Wahl, if a team wins the Europa cup and qualifies for the CL, are u saying they immediately stop being Europa champions as they are are now in the CL? ๐

That game against Atlético was virtually pointless anyway. They won’t complete the champions league.
We will be reigning Super World European Premier League Champions by the start of next season, mark my words.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yup it’s irrelevant that it won’t get completed.
But it’s not irrelevant in the fact you were knocked out fair and square. And perhaps because the records won’t hold it complete you can claim it’s still yours, everyone else however, knows that in reality, atletico ended your reign.
What do we say at the start of a season?
We say the champion is defending their title
if you get knocked out, your defence has failed and thus you've lost your title. That's it.

The final is the "title fight". If a boxer wins the title fight he becomes the champion. If he subsequently loses a non-title fight he is still the champion.
Liverpool are the current champions and title-holders and will be until a new champion is crowned.
How can you be champions of a competition you were eliminated from? It makes no sense.
I feel like I'm going crazy You're all mugs.

All this covid disruption to the season would have been way worse had you beaten atletico, I guess small mercies that they won fairly comfortably in the end. Be worse if you could still win the CL too....a lot of fans are laughing at the situation, but I genuinely do feel sorry for the way it’s turned out so far, you guys should have been celebrating around now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So you're feeling sorry for the World champions, European Champions, Super Duper cup champions and soon to be Premier League champions? A team managed by an Asgardian god while your team is scraping through the Ropey league and managed by Lole?
Makes complete sense.

Naah, we say the reigning and defending champion is defending their title.
If we lose then the defending goes out and we become the reigning champions.

According to Wahls rules, if you are presently not in the competition to be able to defend it, Then you’re not reigning champions.
Europa league will never have a reigning champion ever again.

I’m feeling sorry for the fact that theyve waited 30 very long years for this, played an outstanding season (minus losing their european crown- dress it up however you won’t, but they got knocked out, so it’s gone) and then the season being cancelled because of a pandemic, with the possibility of it not getting completed. That’s harsh in my book, no matter who it is...
FFS, it really is as simple as 'the person/team/club currently holding the title of champions in their specific sport shall be deigned to be champions until the title is awarded to another person/team/club'
This simple fact means Liverpool remain Super European Champions of the world until one or more of those titles are claimed by another club.
We have had a couple of months of City fans claiming to still be PL champions because nobody has taken the title from them yet. Same goes for Liverpool, nobody has WON the CL yet this season so Liverpool are still champions.
Anybody who thinks otherwise is just a brainless ัunt.

No because that team never got eliminated from the Europa League.
Once you've LOST, been BEATEN, you're no longer Champions. That's it.
Jesus. This sums this site up at times. The OP is about Liverpool winning against Spurs 340 days ago. I comment, as a Spurs fan around my honest experience at the game. 0 comments. (P. S yet all spurs fans are wums apparently on here).
Then other posters mentions they are not champions and it attracts 40+ comments.
Sometimes I wonder if people come on here for an arguement rather than discussing football. Chasing arguments and ignoring proper football chat.

Beaten home and away. Convincingly is the word to use.
However on paper the pool fans are correct, they are still champs until that trophy is claimed. However, most fans consider that in reality that ended when atletico dumped them out, and on paper means nothing really.
