While the goalkeeper made a difference (didn't quite do a Karius), I think the blame on him is deflection from the fact that over the two legs Atleti walked through their defense repeatedly.

Simeone responded to comments from Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp that he didn’t “get” Atletico’s style of play.
“I respect his identity and the quality footballers they have. We try to exploit deficiencies in the opponent. That’s what we do. And we try to win.”

Simeone must be hot property in the PL now.
Everyone knows how Atletico play. It’s for Klopp to work out how to get through them. He failed.... twice.

If I am right, and the season is declared null and void (with next season essentially being a reset of this season) then we are back in the CL and there is an enormous bolt of fortune received. Would Mourinho and the squad get CL qualification bonuses???
Mental. All of it.

Well the last time Mourinho picked up CL his Inter side were helped by a volcanic eruption, so perhaps lightning will strike twice for The Special One!!

An alternative would be to expand the CL to include all teams that qualified last year, and all teams currently in CL qualification spots as well as those with a theoretical chance of qualifying. With extra qualifying rounds before the group stages.
It will be hugely impractical of course, and would include a brickload of extra games in an already messed up schedule, so I doubt this is a viable alternative.
Problem is that when it comes to deciding who qualified if the season gets aborted, you can’t overlook teams with a theoretical chance of qualifying. That's a can of worms I'm sure the FA/PL doesn’t want to open.
I have a feeling the big dilemma here if the season is called off, is to find a way to award Liverpool the PL title because they've practically won it already, while not applying a similar principle to any of the other teams.
