i don’t think this game will be decided on the team Liverpool put out but by the team we put out

Hope it's not a repeat of the last time we played them at VP in December in this competition.

We will go full strength I'm fairly sure. No messing at quarter final stage bar perhaps Steer staying in as cup keeper.

Liverpool will field a strong team as they can compete in the Qatar bollocks with their reserve team.

Looking at the wiki page the winner gets $5 mill and runner up $4 mill but I'm not sure how up to date those figures are? The prize money will no doubt be a major factor as to what team they put out.

Yep. 2002 wasn't it, with all the late kick-off/ticket fuck up, nonsense?

Liverpool do have a backlog of fixtures to fullfill, and their offical comment seems to be "it is what it is", so they have learnt from Spurs moans from a couple of seasons back. :)

Also we dont have another Saturday 3pm KO until 14 December! ( one is a mid-week ) I'm not sure having fixtures all over the place helps us either. :-\

After all the fuss about the date and all the media attention, it would be the most Villa thing ever to lose to their U18s and we'd never hear the end of it.

I do actually have a small amount of sympathy for Liverpool.

Never ever have any level of amount of sympathy for Liverpool Football Club. Ever, ever. Never. Ever.

Klopp seems to have hinted that they will play a similar team to the last round, which despite containing 5 kids also included a number of 1st team squad players such as Milner, Oxlade, Gomez, Keita, and Origi. These players would then fly out to Qatar and be available for the 2nd of the two matches over there. 

So the prospect of us facing a team made up entirely of U18s may actually be wishful thinking.

I think they have to submit a squad for Qatar in advance and can only add a player within 24 hours of their first game in the case of injury or illness.

I would think Milner and Oxlade would go Qatar . Id be pissed off if I had to stay here while the rest of the team had a nice break in Qatar and I would expect Fifa  would expect 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' to take all their top players and oxlade looks better than Salah at the moment.

Will Salah get a visa? Haven't Qatar fallen out with all the other Arabs?

It's the other way round as most Arab countries have fallen out with Qatar so I assume they will be grateful for a famous Egyptian coming to their horrible country unless that is the Egyptian authorities threaten Salah with a fate worse than Sadat's.
