I'm actually hoping Shrewsbury hold on for the draw. Really deserved and what the FA Cup is all about. Gone toe to toe with the European Champions! A great scalp.

I partly agree.

But this isn't the European Champions team is it.

And for it to be a scalp they'd have to beat us not draw.

Bet their defender Love is a relieved man.

Well, we were pretty awful, especially 2nd half and created very little. Says a lot when Adrian was our best player.

The only thing I'm slightly annoyed about is the commentary team going on about this being the unbeaten Liverpool team, top of the league, European & world champs. I mean c'mon, we have the same name and kit but it's not really the proper Liverpool side

bks.

Matip, Fabinio, Lovren, Oxlade Chamberlain, Salah, Firminio, Origi all on the pitch.

They've been very good in the second half.

They definitely deserved a draw. Although it was only against a team that shares the same team name as the European champions, it was a 'reserve/B/U23' team.

Fair play to Shrewsbury, Wanted it more.

Really could have done without a Replay though.

If you're not talking about your dick, you talk bks instead.

Here comes the resident muppet right on cue.

Salah and Firmino on for last 10 minutes.
Lovren, Matip and Fabinho - early game coming back from injury.

Not taking anything away from Shrewsbury who were excellent

Where has your football romance gone? This was still Liverpool first team playing regardless of personnel - a League One club who are the 2nd lowest scorers in their league, all the way down 16th have held the PL leaders and CL winners.

Subs: Ox for 20 mins, 10 mins for Salah, 6 for Firminio

Matip, Fabinho and Lovren just back from injury.

So just Origi then?

Why though? It will be a replay for the B team and a few coming back from injury (who on the evidence of that need the practice!). And pleased for Shrewsbury who deserved an Anfield experience

Nonsense - bounced up behind him, completely accidental

We should have had a clear one and their penalty was outside the box

But they have deserved the luck, we have been ste (apart from Adrian)

The rules changed a while ago. It doesn't need to be intentional. His arm was fully extended and he stopped the ball going to the Shrewsbury player.

I've seen lesser given with VAR.

Be careful what you wish for!

Nope for attacking players only if it leads to a goal

Thoroughly deserved too.

I also said I agree with the first part of your original post that we are discussing.

[Chris Stott]

Poor attitude and effort 2nd half. Thought they’d done enough and took the foot off the gas.

Klopp will be giving them a massive arse kicking tonight!

Awesome for Shrewsbury though. They were brilliant and get a replay at Anfield as a reward.

[ferrisbueller]

Was Matip injured or was that a tactical swap?
