If Alonso hadn't played for us, think a lot of people on social media etc wouldn't have reacted the way they have at the news. 

Feels to me he is going to do another year at Leverkusen trying to retain the league and Champions League football whilst waiting for the Madrid job. 

Looks like we'll turn our attention to Amorim or De Zerbi.

Love these types of games when they're on. Always fun to go to and just seeing load of players when you're growing up playing again. 

Still find it mad that out of those who played you're got Skrtel now with hair, Kuyt who's had a glow up and Torres becoming an absolute unit of a man. 

Game should have been abadoned purely for that "get stuck in lads banner" in the United end 

Mickey Mouse cup... Least my bank gets a break from all the Wembley trips we've had the last few years  

Not that I'll be watching or really care, just curious as to why given the consideration for other players of a similar age that Harvey Elliott never seems to get a mention as someone who should/could be called up.

We've been consistently incredibly shit playing in Italy, so Atalanta could definitely surprise us! But it's definitely hard to see us going out before the Finals. It's very easy to predict a fitting Final of Klopp vs his potential replacement, but AC Milan absolutely could have something to say about that!

Napoli is making you think that. Cause we've been solid against other teams bar a defeat to Roma (but we battered them at Anfield) 

Perfect draw for me. Avoids Leverkusen and I think Milan is the other one to worry about.

Dublin expensive and a bit crap should put most people off.

I fully expect at least one person to try and travel via a dinghy across the Mersey and Irish sea. 

I don't know. Its the luck of the draw and if you are in the harder side, you're surely the favourites to win it. Say Arsenal best Bayern then City/Madrid I'd favour them to go on and win the whole thing. 

That and it'll help our title chances....

Not being biased but feels like the Europa League has been a more fin competition than the Champions League this season. 

The last 16 games I watched felt very paint by numbers

One step closer to Dublin though. UEFA have already peddled out the ticketless fans line in the media....

The new format is so complex, that the draw is going to be made by computer!

 

Arsenal winning conversely helps whichever team ends up finishing 5th in the league. So, keep on trucking...

Would you take Arsenal winning the Champions League if it meant Spurs qualifying. Just curious

Makes their next game even bigger given its Forest at home. 

The proverbial six pointer. 

I think Billy Hogan's job got restructured not long ago which gave people the impression this move was gonna happen. 

Don't know if im reading too much into the job title but suggests FSG might be looking into the multi-club model

Funniest thing about the whole thing was Mike Dean going 

"Yeah that's a pen, they'll send him the monitor"

VAR check complete

"Correct decision from VAR there"

Liverpool should be happier than Man City with the point, I'd say. Especially with the players out injured.

I can see the argument either way for the Doku foul at the end, I'm not too surprised it wasn't overturned.

Who has the harder run-in, on paper, out of the top three? Going to be an interesting end to the campaign.

Arsenal don't have an easy away run at all and have the obvious away trip to City next.

I think our April is a good run in but then its Spurs at home, Villa away and Wolves at home final three games. Got to go Old Trafford and Goodison as well

City have Arsenal/Villa back to back and go to Tottenham as well which is always a bogey game for them. 

Still think City are the favourites. I think the fact we're even in this position is brilliant as you'd have expected it to be City/Arsenal again. Arsenal are on form but we've been winning with a heavily depleted squad. 

Anywhere else on the pitch, that would have been given. 

Brilliant performance, outstanding in the second half and missed some good chances. 

Don't think that harms our chances for the title at all, keeps the momentum rolling

Glad that gobshite is hurt. 

Was a clever goal. Frustrating to concede it mind. 

We haven't played bad but you can tell its not a full strength team. We've gotten behind a few times and just with a bit more quality I can see us getting back. We've not been blown away. 

Oh dear...

Both goals in the Manc derby were proper screamers. 

Shame City have levelled it like

I've seen more people from media companies, pundits etc fuming over this then VAR not doing its job for our goal against Spurs

Agree with the above. 

Also fuck them and their tory, poverty and disaster chants they kept doing during the game. Rather sing about the above then their own team.

Worth the money just for that goal at Wembley against Everton

I've only seen still images but what was the difference between what happened for Casemiro's goal and Van Dijk's ruled out one in the cup or is it just classic inconsistencies 

Lovely finish as well!

Southampton have played some really good football, especially transitioning from defence to attack. Played out the press really well and aren't doing what some teams do when facing opposition in a higher league and abandoning the style of play they're trying to do normally. Been quite unlucky hitting the post and having one ruled out gor offside

Sad that young up and coming Jay Spearing hasn't made the team tonight

#KloppOut

He's too busy to see if he can find a new level of tan past Benidorm Brown
