Steve Earle Posted 25 January 2020 Posted 25 January 2020 Assuming the favourites win the remaining ties, we’ll have a 40% chance of being drawn against lower tier opposition. The odds may of course improve. At quarterfinal stage I don’t think you can grumble about any draw, but for the 5th round, any non-PL side would do nicely, home or away.
Farrington fox Posted 25 January 2020 Posted 25 January 2020 Any bugger at home. Well maybe not Man citeh or Liverpool.
StanSP Posted 25 January 2020 Posted 25 January 2020 As before, easy game at home. Let's get as far as possible in this competition too!

As usual i would prefer the weakest team left in the competition at home. It would be wonderful if we're plain sailing in the league with a Carabao Cup win behind us and then in the position to rotate players in the league to go all out for the FA Cup. Agree entirely, although this is tempting fate. The thing is that Rodgers clearly wants to win everything, which is fine by us, after years of having managers who didn't give a flying one about any of the cups.

HybridFox Posted 25 January 2020 Posted 25 January 2020 Midweek midlands trip if is to be away...or a home tie
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 25 January 2020 Posted 25 January 2020 Any lower league team at home please. Last sixteen so want to be looking to get to the semis. Probably be Newcastle away for third time in a season
Bayfox Posted 25 January 2020 Posted 25 January 2020 1 hour ago, Gerard said: There was an official "winter break"? When was that supposed to be? Feb. If you check the fixtures all teams get 2 weeks free. Theres a weekend with only 5 games in the premier league on consecutive weeks. Meaning you either play on the weekend of the 8th then not again until the 22nd or play on the 1st and not again until the 15th We play norwich or the cup final then don't play until we meet wolves we actually end up hard done too because our game at wolves is the friday. Fine if we play Norwich we get our 2 weeks. If we make the cup final our break is shorter than everyone else.

Unless I am giving @Claudiofox more credit than due, I believe his comment was meant to be humorous.. >
Realjimbo Posted 25 January 2020 Posted 25 January 2020 In the past I've always thought "anyone but a home draw please" now our away form is so good I think "anyone but Liverpool or Man City"- home or away!

Bumped into a few on our way back from london at the station.
Wymsey Posted 25 January 2020 Posted 25 January 2020 Want Coventry or Sheffield United/Wednesday away. But will probably be someone like Newcastle away.
