Saints Draw Liverpool Thursday, 29th Oct 2015 11:31 In terms of quality of the other teams in the last 8 of the Capital One Cup, Liverpool are the second worst draw we could have had, but it is at home and Manchester City aside there is now no one we should fear. Although technically speaking Liverpool is the second worst draw we could have had, it perhaps shows not only how far Saints have progressed, but also how many of the so called big teams have departed the competition. Indeed in terms of current League position, Saints are the second highest of the teams still left in the tournament. So the home draw against Liverpool in the quarter final is not as good as it could have been, but it is not one that we should fear and whisper this around Anfield (and Oslo) but they are more hacked off than we are at the draw. The game at Anfield on Sunday showed that we have nothing to fear from Liverpool and hopefully by the time the game is played on what will probably be Wednesday December 2nd, we should be stronger still with the likes of Shane Long and Jay Rodriguez back from injury. Beat Liverpool and the competition could open out for us with the only team to fear Manchester City, apart from that we should fear no one. Usually when the year ends in a 6 it's a good one for us.
