      Home draw though mate. All you can really ask for is a home game. Confident we can beat them anyway.

      I think we'll field a stronger team than Spurs. They have West Brom (15th), Leverkusen away (18th), Bournemouth (22nd), Liverpool (25th/26th), Leicester (29th) and then Leverkusen again (2nd Nov).

      Rotation is going to be a huge thing for them during that spell of games.

      Spuds. Bring them on. Some decent ties in there with the manc derby and West Ham v Chelsea too.

      Some big sides will fall away in the next round, and Spurs; D

      We can and will do them over at home.

      Might as well get the top teams out of the way.

      Agreed, still at this stage in the competition I'm surprised at the ties.

      Nice bit of research there mate, yeah I'd agree that given the circumstances that should give us a nice edge.

      Hopefully Spurs will have been sick of playing at Wembley by then and won't want to go all the way in the cup and have to play there again!

      Relatively optimistic that we'll beat them.  Looking forward to it.  I think the team that we put out against Derby are more than capable of getting the result as well.

      On the ball as usual mcarz if only our scouting staff were so diligent in researching potential players over the last decade or so we might have a title or two...  :roll:
      No really... it can only be a bonus for us, that plus Kane's injury

      Should be a good game against Spurs, at home. Not an easy tie, although should progress to the next round of the competition. Spurs will be more interested in Europe.

      Spurs must be shaking their head think....funk...not Liverpool & Klopp.

      I think it's going to be an exciting game with us as winners...

      Potentally a tough game but we have all the tools to beat them, plus when we get past them then plenty of other strong teams will have been knocked out

      Not an easy tie but I more than confident that we will progress with Anfield behind the players.

      We will field a strong team and they will rotate or have tired players :D

      Will be on the Kop for this one, my first game of the season. Really fancy us to do them comfortably given their European commitments and their best striker being injured.

      At home, Spurs have Champions League to focus on and Kane will still be out. It'll still be tough because they have good depth, but we should be close to full strength.
      Frankly, Mr Shankly

      Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the last time we played Tottenham in the league cup was that quarter final in 2004 at White Hart Lane when Rafa started one of the weakest sides I can remember...and we won on penalties! Needless to say the likes of David Raven, John Welsh and Zak Whitbread didn't make the biggest of impacts in English football. In fact, last time I looked Raven was playing with Inverness!

      Good chance for Cou to banish the memory of that miss. At home. They have Europe. We can do them.
