CL Quarter Final Draw - Liverpool A Apr 4th - H Apr 10th

[citytill1die84]

A chance we go 12:30 sat scouse derby 5:30 or Scouse derby 12:30 sat, but doubt owt will change as scouse derby is early KO Sun

Dippers would cry if only 48 hours between 2 big games haha

Imagine what a 10 days this could be. 3 huge games and what a time to be a blue. This could be one of the greatest few weeks in our history.

Could be the kind of fortnight that makes this team go down in history. Actually this team will already go down in history, but this would be one of the crowning moments that people think of when they look back at the season.

Beating the rest of the top 4, Liverpool twice, and a derby to become the quickest team in history to win the league, and get through to a Champions League semi-final.

better getting boo

if that definite?

a fully fit squad ederson kompany otamendi walker mendy fernandinho sterling sane KDB silva jesus or aguero
and the bench is all so very strong so why not feel its a good draw

 

[cibaman]

Playing the first leg at anfield is a massive plus for us. We seem to have something of a mental block playing there. If we were playing the first leg at home the risk would be that we would try too hard to finish the tie off, risk getting caught on the break. And, almost whatever the score, Liverpool would be confident playing the second leg at anfield. Now the anfield game is unlikely to be decisive (unless in our favour). We can play our normal game, perhaps dialled down a tad. Given the pressure on them to get a lead, I think we could end up turning them over there.

It would seem odd to move both matches rather than just one. Is there a reason the Merseyside match can't be at Saturday lunchtime?

 

[citytill1die84]

It's not as if they are flying a 8000 mile round trip for it.

I agree but if it was us I'd be pretty pissed off.

 

[blue by birth]

EUFA have confirmed the referee for both legs of the Liverpool v Manchester City games will be reffed by Pietro Waltoni.
The times of the Liverpool penalties are yet to be confirmed.

 

[Fame Monster]

Good point. Should be £30 and no more.

We need to create a Hamburg atmosphere for this. If the grounds full of tourists who can pay £50 a ticket, it won’t happen.

 

[MillionMilesAway]

Maybe they'll postpone the Merseyside match due to police request!

Roberto Madli

In Italian it translates as Fat Bob............lol

 

[Breadsnapper]

They beat us 4 -3 nd played out of their skins and we underperformed. It also highlighted Fernas importance in the team. That will not happen again that they play so well and us so poorly. One all at their place and 3 goals to the good at ours.

 

[Kundaliniyogi]

We won't lose another game this season

 

[sentoffangrywalking]

We will win this if we do everything right and keep focused and that means not listening to the media sucking up to their preferred team, it's as though the 5-0 never happened and the only time we have played them this season was the 4-3 where we let in 3 very poor goals. Pundit after pundit not even giving us a shout when it comes to winning this thing

I can't wait for us to shove it down their collective throats.

 

[Silva_Spell]

Away leg we have to show some respect.

Out of possession:

Ederson
Kompany Otamendi Laporte
Walker ---De Bruyne Fernandinho ---Delph
Silva ------ Sane
G.Jesus

In possession:

Ederson
Kompany Otamendi Laporte
Fernandinho Delph
Walker ----- De Bruyne ---Silva ---------- Sane
G.Jesus
​

Home leg we play our usual

 

[oakiecokie]

You got your wish Oaty.........
Can 'Pool be described as - any English club . ? - I know it rankles with all the Rags that 'Pool have been in 6 finals - IIRC - lost the Heysel one.
If we get a fair 'crack o' the whip' from the refs. we should/could get into the semis...........

Its should be two cracking games and at least we know neither team will be parking the bus.
I feel very comfortable with the draw.

no

 

[ancoats]

Considering our abysmal record against Liverpool and Klopp’s tendency to get the better of Guardiola’s sides, this is near enough the worst draw we could have pictured. Thankfully the second leg will be at home.

let me just drop this here


so we can beat liverpool

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

We haven't entertained the prospect that we could put it to bed in the first game, that would certainly help the United game!

 

[mat]

So......


Juventus v Liverpool in Kiev then.


*Hides*
