When is the last time Liverpool have played Munich in a competitive game ?

[Geoff Tipps]

Schalke - City
Atletico - Juve
United - PSG
Spurs - Dortmund
Lyon - Barca
Roma - Porto
Ajax - Madrid
Liverpool - Bayern

Good draw for the oil teams. Schalke and United are probably the 2 worst teams left in the competition.

Super Cup in 2001

Munich is an ok draw. Would be confident of Liverpool beating them over two legs. VVD will be a huge loss for the first leg though.

That'll do.  Shaquiri, what a little gem he is turning out to be. Apart from 15 mins after the goal against the run of play Liverpool played Man U off the pitch.  The squandered chances is a trait this season.  36 attempts in a game of football against your rivals is a weird stat.  Should really have reaped more than 3 goals. 

More pressure heaped on Mourinho. Couldn't wish it more on a classless git.

That would be my only gripe about Liverpool this season, they have to create a lot of chances and sometimes a bit of luck to close out games.
Biggest plus yesterday was Fubhino, he seems to be getting into his stride.

Sounds grim. I wish him well in his battle. Those asymptomatic (until its too late) cancers are a f**king nightmare. Any of us could be sitting with it brewing silently inside us. Next thing you know your body has just said "f**k you".

Was a decent player for Liverpool, but unfortunately for him it was back in the days of one substitute and he had the small matter of Rush and Dalglish ahead of him in the line-up.

Tough draw for Liverpool. At least we avoided Barcelona. The only easy draw would have been Porto but we got them last year.

Speaking of classless gits Collymore on some roll tonight turning Souness's dislike of Pogba into something racial

Where's he saying this at? Haven't heard much from him since he got the boot from talksport and blocked me on twitter

He didn't get the boot. As an ex Liverpool player he left in protest at The Sun newspaper becoming involved with the station

City get Burton in Carling Cup semi final, they can afford to put out the younglads against them.Those extra games not so difficult now.

It's still 3 more games to win the thing, no matter how soft the draw. Back up players who could end up injured and you see how important they are at the moment.

''League Cup winners receive £100,000 prize money (awarded by the Football League) with the runners-up receiving £50,000, considered relatively insignificant to top-flight teams, compared to the £2 million prize money of the FA Cup''

Nervous about this game tonight. Spurs the only top six side whom Wolves have NOT taken points off this season. Going to be a hard- fought game.

[Gabriel_Hurl]

That was scrappy - but well worth the 3 points.

A great Christmas present.

[AZOffaly]

That's a good win. Salah very lively again. Van Dijk is some operator though. That lad Traore was very fast but VVD never dived in or looked in trouble. He just took a good angle and stayed goal side.
