Walsall won 0-0 on penalties according to the BBC.

7-4 on pens according to Midlands Today. How can you win on pens by three clear goals?

We beat Bolton 4-1 on penalties in the 2000 FA Cup Semi Final so it is possible. 7-4 isn't though.

Balotelli was a panic buy when they realised Sturridge was also going to be missing.

Rodgers is starting to look very overated.He got lucky last season he has an on fire Suarez and no champs league to distract him.

He has spent big on defenders yet they still concede goals and now they are not scoring and still reliant on a fading Gerard to bail them out.
Happy Liverpool have gone out.

Meanwhile, how's this for a way to waste over 100m?

Lovren £20m
Lallana £25m
Lambert £4m
Markovic £20m
Moreno £12m
Balotelli £16m
Can £10m

Most of them on bench tonight as well.He makes MON spending on a defence look reasonable !! £20 on Lovern  18 on Sako 12 on Moreno ..

Rodger's is getting found out big time here , this continue's he will be gone by the end of the season.

Bet the wages for that lot are eye watering as well.  £20m per annum?

It's only £60m, but the following get pretty close:

Tiago Ilori £7m
Luis Alberto £8m
Iago Aspas £7m
Joe Allen £15
Simon Mignolet £10m
Fabio Borini £11m

I'd wager a fair proportion of Liverpool fans wouldn't even know that the top three are even owned by Liverpool anymore.

At least the players we farmed out on loan after a single season didn't cost much money.

With the exception of Sturridge he's made some shocking signings, I can't think of another decent signing made by him. Coutinho perhaps but he seems to think Joe Allen is a better player.

No Aguero, Kompany or Toure for City surely means no way through.

Barcelona have Iniesta, Neymar, Messi and Suarez. Really is an insane line up. Beating PSG 2-1 currently.

Having set out to draw 0-0 I can't see Roma scoring two in what's left.
