Carabao Cup 4th Round Draw | Liverpool (H) | 8pm, Thurs 22nd December

[chaddblue]

Fixture is listed on the City app down as Tuesday 20th December 19:45

Probably all listed as Tuesday at the moment and then they will be spread out over Tue, wed and Thu like this week when Sky get their grubby mitts on them

I hope GMP limit the Scousers to 3000 using the coach attack as a reason.

this might be a nothing game, in the grand scheme of things anyway. Its four days aftyer the world cup, we play in the league straight after that. I think Pep might use this to rest players. Hence same with Klopp. Whoever wins then whatever, its the end of the season that matters, and who manages the bigger picture better.

Better off splitting them over three tiers otherwise there’ll be all sorts raining down.

Great suggestion

They certainly won't have ourselves and United at home the same night. The scousers would be in for a night of hell if every lad in Manchester was in town.

Pity Liverpool play on the following Monday and not Wednesday like us or it would have made sense to have it on the Saturday.

I’ve just noticed that United and Burnley both don’t play until the 27th so there’s no reason I can think of why they couldn’t have that on the Saturday and spread the games out all week for TV if they wanted.

Given its the tie of the round, decent chance we play on the thursday 22nd with the draw after it so a couple more days rest but more importantly that's also a few days closer to the dippers boxing day game whereas we don't play until the 28th. Would influence Klopp's decision to go strong if it were the case.

Good point well made

Fire hoses trained on the jibbers, please.

Chelsea, followed by Liverpool. Well at least the conspirators of most of our rivals can shut up about us getting easy draws in the domestic cups.

No complaints, want us to win it against this year if it's our last chance for a while and the FA Cup too because we haven't won enough of those.

They won’t though, the mantra is Liverpool got a hard draw in the CL and they got another hard draw in the carabao

Oh god if that happens imagine how much pissing and moaning he will do.
