Redman89 (page 7) Shrewsbury earned their demolishment at anfield
Hmmm....If you play them kids again and a few complacent, demotivated old knackers like Lovren, then you may well be in for a shock.
But it's only the FA Cup of course and nothing for you boys to worry about!

From reading that I think Klopp is very much out just to make a point. He clearly isn't happy with one or two things about the English season...👍

To be fair to Klopp he says the Premier League have asked their teams to respect the winter break and not schedule any games in that period. I can see why he would be frustrated in that scenario.

Not sure what they’re saying now, but they have to be some of the worst singers I’ve ever seen down our place.
Like 1500 librarians.
If the old saying about the fans being the twelfth man Liverpool should be in the conference.

Shouldnt bea winter break at all. Loads of players at the top clubs, just rotate them a bit more if you think they need a break. Just stick the under 18s in against us if you want, go on i dare you...

The frustrating thing is the winter break was a joint agreement between the Premier League and the FA, with the Chairman of the FA a big advocate of it, but they clearly didn't think it through properly from an FA Cup perspective. Next season they will almost certainly scr@p replays after the third round therefore ensuring the winter break is kept clear of games. This weekend even saw Karl Robinson agreeing that FA Cup replays should be scr@pped, sadly this now looks inevitable.

Yet another blow to lower league clubs and fans. The FA Cup will lose its magic for sure then.

There was a time when clubs wanted to do ‘the double’. All this money and managers who don’t understand are ruining the domestic game without a doubt.

If you want to have ago at Liverpool F.C, their manager or their fans then fine but refer to them as "Liverpool fans" etc...not Scousers. You are seriously getting on my bloody nerves

When I was growing up as a teenager Liverpool FC valued the FA cup as much as anyone. Doing the double was like the holy grail of football, it was something to really be proud of.

I think the Liverpool support was as casual as their back line were at times. Just got the impression today that they thought it was going to be a lot easier than it turned out to be, another regulation win. Didn't think the goal celebrations in the away end were that ecstatic either. Don't suppose we can blame them with the way their season is going...

No wonder they're tired, according to soccerbase, they're down to the following : -
8 keepers,
16 defenders,
17 midfielders,
8 forwards,
with only 10 players loaned out.
You'll have to excuse me, Jurgen, but you sound like a daft t**t looking for excuses..

I’d imagine there will still be at least 40,000 at Anfield regardless of what team they put out... including a blue and amber contingent of 8,000 in the Anfield Road end.

You’re forgetting though that they are going to have a winter break. Bless.

Not as if Klopp is pulling this out of nowhere, he's clearly unhappy with the structure of the season here in England and he's made this clear from the off. You get the odd 'Englische woche' here in Germany but it's not too often you have midweek games. And here in Germany (and elsewhere) they also get a break. It all does sound rather daft that a winter break has been allocated but then they then have a fixture fall into that. Doesn't sound the best of planning from the Premier League, the FA and any club who happens to have scheduled things for a break (when there was always a chance of a replay). Seems a bit of a mess and I think this will certainly play a part in the build up as Klopp is clearly looking to use this to make a point.
So it'll be interesting to see how this pans out now because its great that we are all talking about our first trip to Anfield and a big pay day but there is also the small matter of a place in the last 16 being available...and the way Klopp is speaking you do wonder who we'll be going up against.
Not saying in any way, shape or form that we will be favorites, I don't think it matters who they put out at home they will be best placed to go through and favorites to win. But if the seniors are on the winter break then our chances increase big time.
So I guess it comes down to whether Klopp is willing to sacrifice his teams chances of winning the FA cup to make a point about fixture congestion in the English game. As I think this is what it now boils down to. And of course whether Liverpool will be OK for him to do so (I don't think he will get much stick from the fans as we know what is important for them this season).
Personally now I would be more than happy if we came up against a side that's comparable to what we would meet in the Johnson's Paint Trophy. That would give us a half decent chance of making it to the last 16...

Klopp and most Liverpool fans have been very complimentary about us and the way we played and gracious despite throwing away the win.
Their attitude on the FA Cup as a whole is regrettable though, he’s never had any time for the domestic cups but these latest comments are I think a way of exposing the hypocrisy/double standards of the FA and the Premier League. Love him or hate him he’s nothing if not principled and stubborn. I was fuming when Ricketts basically through the Carabao Cup with his selection this season which is similar.
If will take the gloss of it slightly if we go there and face a bunch of unknowns but that won’t bother us at all if we win it!
Maybe more concerning is I’ve read a lot of Liverpool fans who massively disagree with his comments, and are saying things like ‘if he can’t be bothered to turn up why should we’, hard to disagree with that but would still hope for a capacity crowd.

Yes, disappointing attitude from Klopp to say the least. Looking at the replays I would have thought this game would stand a chance of being one of the live games again but with it looking like a second / third string Liverpool side the TV companies may give it a swerve. Add in a few thousand home fans who may not now be bothered this could cost us a couple of 100k.
