As is Darwin Nunez….what a miss!! Cracking game though and draw probably fair result.

It's amusing how the media seem to be relentless in their quest to essentially treat Liverpool as "little brother" in the whole title race narrative. No matter what they do or what results they get the headlines are always about Arsenal. E.g., "Good/bad news for Arsenal as Liverpool pick up/drop points."

I brough in Cody Gakpo and made him captain of my fantasy football team because of the 2 fixtures week. He didn't play in either.

I haven't played Fantasy Football for years, but the first rule of it was always to get the top points scorer in no matter what and then fill in the rest. If you haven't got Salah then you're doing it wrong.

Certainly not the draw Liverpool wanted in the Champions League. It was either PSG or Benfica and they got the French.
Looking at the paths through to the Final, you'd be happy being a Barca fan at the mo. The Madrid Derby in the last 16 is superb, whilst Bayern v Leverkusen should be fun too. Decent draws for both Villa and Arsenal, although Villa get Liverpool/PSG next and Arsenal will be heading to Madrid one way or another.

Bottom half of the draw looks much weaker. Villa will be happy, should fancy their chances of winning and if they lose in quarters they'd have taken that before the season started.
Barcelona to make final, take your pick from top half.

Are there really fans who think this way about cup competitions? I understand saying something like "I'd have taken 12th before the season" in the league, but this is insane to me.

Yeah not a bad draw, someone just needs to give Mings a quick reminder on the handball rule before the tie.

Haha yeah I wondered this.
I've made no secret that I don't really place any sort of importance on most domestic cup comps, and am rarely disappointed about an exit, but whilst you are in them you may as well make your aim winning the entire thing. An exit is an exit, regardless of which round it occurs in. And like you say, I can't really imagine anyone anywhere spends time thinking "gosh I really hope we make it to the fourth round of the FA cup this year".
Edit: Unless you're a really small team who's hoping for an away draw against a Prem side or something I guess.
