Just about the worst draw to get :(

Not really - They will field a much weaker side than the one we will see from them on Saturday.  It will be an ideal opportunity for them to rest their first teamers.

If they can't meet their competition commitments do we get a walk?

This is Villa. That sort of thing doesn't happen to us. They'll probably rearrange the game for Doha to suit Liverpool.

 It could be a lot worse,we are at home.they will field a weakened side,Klopp isn't that bothered about the League cup etc.The two Mancs might meet in the Semi,leaving us and Leicester/Everton to slug it out for the final.Its far from impossible.

That's a level of positivity I can't dream of obtaining Brasso :)

Yes, I'd have preferred Oxford or Colchester but Liverpool reserves might be better for us than Everton or Leicester.  Assuming we field a stronger team.

A home draw?  I don't think so

If we play the strongest side possible I'd make us favourites against their reserves at home.

I'll feel better about this draw after we've beaten them on Saturday. 1-0 With an outrageous VAR decision that leaves Murphy apocoplectic btw.

Aren’t they in Qatar for these games?
Yep. They had the West ham game postponed on the 21st because of it. They'll go subs, reserves and kids....we have a chance.

When is the draw for the Semi Final? I’m hoping for Man City at home.

I hope we don't get pushed around and have it moved to a date just to suit them. If they can't play the week set in the calender they should have pulled out at the start.

Zero chance. We will have to beat Liverpool and two of Man City/Man Utd/Leicester to win the cup. Ffs.

When Man U played in the World Club Championship 20 odd years ago, they pulled out of the FA Cup.  They argued that this was at the FA's request.

If Klopp is serious about not wanting to play it then he should withdraw from the competition (or one competition).
