Liverpool have been given permission to enter the first qualifying round of next season's UEFA Champions League but the third UEFA Cup spot which was held by Liverpool has not be awarded to another club.

Poor decision IMO. Liverpool didn't finish in the predefined top-4 places for qualification, so they shouldn't qualify, regardless of if they had won it the previous year. Everyone knew the rules at the start of the season, so they shouldn't complain now.
UEFA have changed the rules so from now on the winners of any future champions league get to enter the next one automatically, regardless of league position. However, this wasn't the case this year, so LFC should not be in it.
