    To their credit our opponents have won a credible 4 European trophies, so we should show them some respect.

    At least they'll be able to visit their 99 CL cup in our trophy room if they pay for a tour ticket on the day.:)

    Liverpool will face arch-rivals Manchester United in the Europa League last 16.

    Tottenham have been drawn against Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund.

    Valencia, managed by Gary Neville, will face La Liga rivals Athletic Bilbao, while Sevilla - the winners of the last two Europa League titles - are away to Basel, whose St Jakob-Park ground will host the final.

    The games will be played on Thursday, 10 and 17 March.

    The winners of the tournament qualify for next season's Champions League.

    United, who have never won the tournament, beat FC Midtjylland 6-3 on aggregate with Marcus Rashford scoring twice on his debut as United won the second leg 5-1.

    Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool beat Augsburg 1-0 on aggregate with James Milner scoring the only goal of the tie on Thursday. The Reds won the old Uefa Cup three times, in 1973, 1976 and 2001.

    It will be the first time United and Liverpool have faced each other in European competition.

    The last all-English match in the Uefa Cup or Europa League was Liverpool v Tottenham in April 1973.

    Spurs, who beat Fiorentina 3-0 on Thursday to seal their tie 4-1 on aggregate, won the 1972 and 1984 Uefa Cups.

    Sevilla - who have won the tournament a record four times - are bidding to become the first side to win it three years in a row.

    Europa League round of 16 draw
    Shakhtar Donetsk v Anderlecht

    Basel v Sevilla

    Villarreal v Bayer Leverkusen

    Athletic Bilbao v Valencia

    Liverpool v Manchester United

    Sparta Prague v Lazio

    Borussia Dortmund v Tottenham

    Fenerbahce v Braga

    You can never be completely sure of anything in football so you either spend your entire life on the fence or you just go with the most likely outcome

    #reality suggests it is not 50/50 and in fact Man Utd winning probably requires a lucky smash and grab

    Being on the fence is only really bad if you're naked and the fence posts arnt lubed.

    Has anyone seen what the latest Foreign Office advice is about travelling to Third World places like Manchester? I know they have that gun thing and roaming gangs, but what about that mosquito shrunken-head virus stuff? Do they accept Sterling, or will one have to take shiny objects to barter with them for trinkets and suchlike?

    I do so hope they lay on one of their native clog-dances before the game, the one culminating in rolling of their late uncles' caps.

    LvG loves Liverpools, so another 2 wins before he gets sacked will be the icing on the cake

    Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said: "You can ask my staff but when they asked me yesterday who I wanted, I said 'Man United'.

    "I think we have to clear something. We had a good game when we lost 1-0 (in the Premier League in January) but it was not what we deserved.

    "It gives us a chance to make it better and that is what we will try to do."
