Liverpool should not be called Premier League champions because there is a possibility they could "lose every game" once matches resume, according to ex-football star Alan Smith.
"It's impossible I think to do it in a fair way. Liverpool fans will obviously say 'we're going to win the title, you could give us the trophy now' but at the end of the day, mathematically they haven't. Theoretically, the wheels could come off, they could lose every game. Of course, it's not going to happen but we have to go along with the maths really", he noted.

Last week, chairman of the English Football Association Greg Clarke noted that the 2019/2020 season of the English Premier League may not be completed due to the pandemic. At the moment, the fixtures are suspended until at least 30 April, however, some reports suggested there are plans to wrap up the season before 30 June, when standard contracts for multiple players are set to expire.
