Moura having a good laugh with Richarlison, Mina and Bernard after the game. Jose will love that.

The last time we played them. 1-0 on the first game of the season.

Glad to see Tottenham are out, although Everton are obviously strong as well and I was more eager to see Leicester or Man City get beat instead.

It's looking like a strong last eight (assuming Chelsea get through) with, obviously, Bournemouth and Sheffield United as the weak teams.

Having drawn two of the top seven in the last two rounds, we really deserve to avoid the other four members in the Q/F. I'd obviously love Bournemouth or Sheff Utd, but I'd definitely take Wolves / Southampton right now rather than risk yet another really tough draw.

Draw at around 7.45pm UK time and will be done after Wolves face Southampton, and just before Barnsley take on Chelsea. On BT Sports or the FA YouTube channel.

The ball numbers

1 Bournemouth

2 Man United

3 Sheffield United

4 Wolves or Southampton

5 Barnsley or Chelsea

6 Everton

7 Man City

8 Leicester City

Quarter finals to be played the weekend of Saturday 20 March.

Doesn't matter who we draw in the next round, what matters is who's gonna skin us in the semis this time.

Glad to see Tottenham go out. It’s a shame they’ll be physically and mentally shattered for the City game now but I don’t know if it would have made much difference even if they weren’t. It’s a strange season, though, so you never know.

As always, we’ll get one of the toughest draws possible. I’d love to get Everton, though. DCL may be out, also, depending on the severity of the groin injury. The quarter finals will be played in 5 weeks time.

We will get Everton or Leicester.

City and Chelsea will get Bournemouth or Sheffield/Bristol, at worst they get Southampton or Wolves.

It is known.

Congratulations, that was some match
Agreed, I was fearing the worst when DCL went off and Kane came on but our spirit in the last two games has been fantastic. All the best for the rest of the season!

I'd really want Sheffield United or Everton, in the hope we can slap them out of the tournament. However, Bournemouth would also be a nice tie for us. They'll come at us and probably rest players due to the League position in fairness.

We will probably get one of the trickier ties like Wolves if they progress. Hoping the likes of Wolves, City, Chelsea & Leicester play each other, but we always seem to get slightly worse draws in the cups.

Hope so (if we go through tonight which isn't a given, we tend to shit the bed at Oakwell in the Cup :lol: ) it's about time the Q/F draw was kind to us.

Leicester, Leicester, United, Everton, United (and all bar one of them away) are our previous 5 Q/F draws, our last kind Q/F was Leicester when they were shit.

I'd rather play City in the quarters than face them in the semi's and get knocked out :wenger:

You lot are such moaners about cup draws. You're Manchester United FFS, grow some balls!
That's easy to say when you've drawn Morcambe, Luton and Barnsley!

Well if you weren't losing at home to Leeds United or playing reserve teams in semi finals maybe we'd have got a "proper run" :lol:
