I'm not sure why they'd get a position. There's never been an extra spot available if a winning team does or doesn't qualify. They take someone else's place. Liverpool took Everton and Chelsea took Spurs. The only way for an English team to get a fifth place was to win the Europa League as seen last year.

So by previous rules if Liverpool win overall and finish 4th then nothing changes at all. There's no extra place on offer. If Liverpool finish outside of the top four and win, they take the place of whoever finishes 4th.

The only place that could potentially be available is the Europa League winners place. Even then I'm unsure where that goes of the winner is already qualified. I'd assume to the runner up and so forth.
