      Bring on those manc tw*ts!!

      Every time we've played City at Anfield with the crowd up for it, they've crumbled.

      Let's do it again boys and girls.

      Yes, it is a difficult round but we are Liverpool and we can beat anyone on our day so let's make it one from both the team and the fans.

      We need to support them and play our part!

      Well, personally don’t think it gets any harder than City. Looking beyond this round, providing we win, there isn’t anyone left that makes me think it’s going to be a gruelling 2 legs of football like City.
      We win, then we’ve put out this seasons faourites IMO.

      Not surprised in the slightest. City just don't win at Anfield.

      Meanwhile, the mancs will probably watch the rest of the competition on a red button. While us and City slug it out, they need more time to prepare for their own mouth watering tie against West Brom.

      I agree, it will give us massive confidence and the other teams will be watching :)

      Come on Reds, give us something to dream about!

      Fair to say they will be as happy about the draw as we are! Regardless of the team I think that most prefer to play a European team in European competition. I remember feeling a bit gutted when we drew Arsenal and Chelsea in consecutive knock out rounds in 07 and those two matches are my best ever experiences at Anfield with the most incredible atmosphere. Would prefer to play the 2nd leg at home but there you have it. Bring it on. Fool the derby and play the kids/readies at the bitters.

      sh*t draw. Wanted Roma or Sevilla. Sterling will dive around 5 times and probably get a penalty at Anfield. I'd rather have played quality than cheaters.

      Well i suppose if i said to you  United were still in the CL and we drew Everton what would you say?  :D Its generally not a easy answer i suppose. However, ive classed Liverpool as out biggest rivals for as long as i can remember so yes i would prefer City to win.. I don't have the hate relationship like so many fans do when you mention our respected teams. Its simply because your our biggest rivals.

      I really don't want to hear 6 times.  ;D

      For me its the tie of the rounds as i can see plenty of goals in both legs. My heart says City and my head says City despite the great performance when you beat them few months back.

      Well at least it will be one hell of a game. City like to push high and attack aswell as we.all already know. We beat them once and if Mane didn't get sent off in the first game we played them this season we would of give them a game then aswell so over 2 legs I'd say we had a better than average chance of getting to the semis. They will be up for it as I think their owners want the CL more than the league so bring it on. My prediction is whoever wins this over 2 legs will go on to win the trophy.

      I’m convinced we can beat these in both legs. What’s more, they also know we are capable of it.
      The only doubt for me is Jürgen game managment.
      Timeand again, when we are beating sides, he makes defensive substitutions and we let teams come on to us. Often leaking goals. Our strength is attack, if there’s signs of tired legs, yes make changes, but like for like and keep the presure on the opposition, or at least the opportunity for a swift counter.
      We don’t seem to have mastered that yet!

      I have a feeling the difference between the teams could be the our defence. I hope I'm wrong, but it's clear we're going to need to score a few a w can't rely on keeping a clean sheet.

      Pep and their players there are deffo under more pressure to win it. After ALL the money ploughed in, they would've been looking to go a lot further if not all the way in the CL this year.

      Media seem to be saying its 50/50, but think majority of people would expect City to go thro over the 2 legs. We were the favourites going into the Manure match, look how that went - don't think being the underdog is a bad thing at all.

      Can't wait already :)
      But we have Watford tomorrow...

      Last time at this stage, we got an English team at home first, and went out.
      The year before in the knockouts, we got an English team at home first, and went out.
      It has to be third time lucky now.

      We certainly can win, but we'll need to win the home game and go from there. Unlike the last time we went to that neck of the woods in "Europe", we have no issue with their fans, they've no issue with us, both endured the 20 years of oppression from the common enemy down the road after all. Same goes for the coaches. It will be a clean contest off the pitch, and played in excellent spirit on the pitch. Assuming it stays 11 a side, it will be everything football at this level should be.

      Good post, but wouldn't be to disappointed with a draw at home. Think that would be a good result (Apart from a win), as the pressure is on them to go for forward in the return leg,  and there is not a better team to play that game than us.
      Was disappointed in the draw, but the more I think about it, the more I think we can do this.

      C'mon you Reds, six times yes, get in !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Not the draw I wanted. We can beat them, but I'd rather have had continental opponents rather than a team we've played twice already this season.

      Them having the home draw second gives them a slight advantage, but I don't think they'll be too chuffed about drawing us either. Jürgen has a good record against Guardiola too. Definitely winnable, but I'd rather have had Roma or Real Madrid.
