Robertson out for them. 

 

Salah looked knackered today. Wonder if they'll play a vastly changed squad. 

They will anyway, Klopp generally plays his youths and back up players in this cup

If the 28th dec game is cancelled tomorrow then klopp may feel he can go stronger on wed ….mane and salah would be off to AFCON after Boxing Day anyway …..

Thats a good point to be fair

 

My guess is something like

 

Kelleher

 

Williams

Gomez

Phillips

Tsimikas

 

Moreton

Ox

Milner

 

Minamino

Origi

Jones

I think Milner played his first 90 for a good while today. Doubt he will start wed 

 

if the 28 dec games are not cancelled then you may not be far from correct.

Any chance of this going ahead?

Depends on the outcome of the PL meeting today I think now 

 

I know they’re separate entities but whatever the outcome of the meeting today will impact other fixtures

Gun for these. I'd have sooner gone for this than the Spurs/Everton games as our league campaign is essentially dead in the water already anyway. The fact we've been forced to is a blessing in disguise.

SPOT ON!

I think this will go ahead, it's in neither Klopp or Rodgers interests for this to be postponed so they won't kick up a fuss about it. Unless either of us have significantly more Covid cases in the next couple days and it forces the training grounds to close.

[Reg Vardy]

Very difficult to reschedule ahead of planned semi final dates........knock on effect of that takes Semi finals into into European fixtures......Final date February 27th......

[SemperEadem]

Think this one will sneak through and be played.

[supernuk]

Surprised this isn't on the telebox

[Collymore]

Well my hotel is past refund stage. I'm all in on this now.

 

Hoping so much it doesn't get cancelled 🤞

[Pliskin]

Klopp will 100% put a weakened squad out. Probably see 11 changes and kids on the bench and in the starting 11. It’s a great opportunity for him to rest key players and potentially keep them away from the covid front line. 
 

Could be a golden ticket for us.

It's a good place to be for having to drink the evening away instead

I've got my 16 year old lad in tow and 24 hours in the city. What is there to do that isn't based around The Beatles?

The Tate is worth a visit. Plus the viewing gallery tower.

There's been numerous trips to Everton/ Liverpool where I've genuinely considered just carrying on boozing rather than go the game!

Buy him a fake moustache and go on the lash!

[FoxinNotts]

will there be a press conference ahead of this one (albeit by Zoom/Teams!), and if so, when is it scheduled for?

[Guest Manini]

Just had a text saying from my mate saying noise coming from Liverpool side is that this is on. Something about plan B guidance and electronic ticket distribution. 

[K1FOX]

Hopefully this is on got a good feeling about this one. Not played for a while everyone should be up for this.

I doubt it.

 

After today's FA meeting, the FA will cancel the match and award us the win because Liverpool have more players out with covid, and therefore will lose the match, Leicester having the strongest team and the wind behind their backs.

[Ian Nacho]

Something tells me this will be on.
