The way we're playing at the moment, whether it be in the league or in any of the cups, I fear no one.

I just hope for a home tie.

Agree - home tie I don't care who we'd get.

joezydudek · « **Reply #3 on:** October 26, 2016, 02:45:03 pm »

From a selfish point of view, I'd be happy with either Hull or Leeds away as it would be local to me, but anyone at home would also do!

Bet we get a Rafa reunion away from home...

Mr_Shane · « **Reply #5 on:** October 26, 2016, 02:46:26 pm »

I would rather play Rafas Newcastle in the final.

Would make a great potential final!

Never play vs Rafa in a must-win game. I know he's at Newcastle now and they've forgotten what silver and gold look like but he as a manager is a trophy winning machine.

Rafa's record in finals is quite good you know.

Just want a home draw so I don't have to travel. Preferably Arsenal/United/City/Chelsea

Knowing our luck in draws, we'll get any one from Chelsea, Arsenal or City/United. But we'll beat them too

BeautifulGame91 · « **Reply #10 on:** October 26, 2016, 02:59:40 pm »

Leeds at home hopefully

Dull Tools · « **Reply #11 on:** October 26, 2016, 03:00:57 pm »

I wanted an away game as I love going to the League Cup aways but just realised I am away that week. So Leeds at home please.

DangerScouse · « **Reply #12 on:** October 26, 2016, 03:01:49 pm »

Any of the "bigger" teams at home, one less to worry about meeting us in the final.

El Denzel Pepito · « **Reply #13 on:** October 26, 2016, 03:03:27 pm »

Newcastle vs Man United (Rafa vs Mourinho) would be good to watch, and I reckon Newcastle would give them a good go at home.

Will be amazed if we don't get drawn a big team, probably away from home.

Garnier · « **Reply #14 on:** October 26, 2016, 03:08:36 pm »

it will be leeds united

TrueNorthRED · « **Reply #15 on:** October 26, 2016, 03:12:30 pm »

The black cats at home please

Hoping for a home tie against one of the stronger sides, too. Better to face one of them at home in the quarters than in a home-away tie in the semis.

I'd take any of the last three as a preference. European football would be where their priorities will lie in the cup competitions. Much like Spurs last night.
Chelsea though may well throw a decent side out given it represents a good opportunity to get some silverware.
We'll still pump them but just trying to save energy within the squad.

mattyyt · « **Reply #20 on:** October 26, 2016, 03:48:47 pm »

United/City at home please. Rather play them under the lights at Anfield, than get through and either have to play a leg in Manchester or the final at Wembley.

Hopefully Arsenal get West Ham.

LallanaInPyjamas · « **Reply #21 on:** October 26, 2016, 03:53:49 pm »

Leeds or Hull at home for me. I want us to be able to rest players again for the league.

Dench57 · « **Reply #24 on:** October 26, 2016, 04:30:50 pm »

Anyone at Anfield.

Hij · « **Reply #25 on:** October 26, 2016, 07:35:07 pm »

Leeds, Man United or Newcastle away. Or Hull away. Or Sunderland away.

Not done any of those away yet.

TheFlyingScouseman · « **Reply #26 on:** October 26, 2016, 07:45:04 pm »

Hardest tie possible, want to knock out the good teams early in the competition when they don't care. Two years in a row we've been beaten by the first quality team we've come up against, and that was late on in the competition. Chelsea semi final 14/15 and city in the final last year.

heylookitsjacob · « **Reply #27 on:** October 26, 2016, 07:46:27 pm »

Hopefully this is enough related to this thread, but holy hell look at United's line-up today. They are definitely in panic mode and really need a win.

MBL? · « **Reply #28 on:** October 26, 2016, 07:51:09 pm »

Everton at Valhalla

Another benefit to getting a hard draw next - we don't have any truly top teams left for the rest of this year! So could get a hard one out the way and in theory..

Ah who am I kidding? Klopp will make us go full bore at anyone and everyone and I love it

riismeister · « **Reply #30 on:** October 26, 2016, 07:57:42 pm »

Anyone at Anfield, please. I honestly see us as favorites against anyone even away right now.

I'd be happy with those too. Rather avoid City/United or West Ham/ Chelsea and Arsenal.

Lol @ people typing "Man City/Man Utd" - As if United are getting through tonight.

Seeing as they have just scored I will do for United away or Leeds away.

sms1986 · « **Reply #34 on:** October 26, 2016, 09:24:28 pm »

Couldn't care less who we get, we've got to beat someone to get to the semi-finals and I'm confident that we can beat any team remaining quite comfortably.
