Caught between extreme pride in these young lads and extreme hatred for the FA in making us pay this game in these circumstances.

"After four minutes the inevitable happened when the grown ups took the lead" love that. Played in a few of those games myself and could see in the Liverpool players and staff had the same attitude we had. "Come on we can't let the kids beat us. We'll look like a right bunch of muppets"

I don’t know what to think at the moment

Let’s just get the season finished

Klopp allowed to pick whatever team he wants IMO

Klopp still the most condescending figure in football

We did right in getting a scratch team out

I agree, Dave. I cannot see why we are currently playing football.

Just like our club and the boys who did their bit for The Villa on Friday,  a real touch of class Dave.

The Villa players had to arrive a Villa Park in a minibus because many of them cannot drive.  That says it all really.  Liverpool, and Klopp in particular, can take no credit whatsoever in beating our under-18's only 4-1.  I remember when we beat their kids last year, we were polite enough to put out a second string side.  Liverpool have no class whatsoever.  That said, the FA have even less.

Liverpool had the right to pick whoever they wanted. That said, I was surprised they didn’t see it as an opportunity to rest players. I think the 0-5 and 2-7 got to Klopp.
