they will not be able to reach with there little legs
Iām not saying Liverpool are fielding a young side tonight.
But Southampton have been advised that their players will need a CRB check.

Liverpool v Southampton: Suttonās predictions
BBC Sportās football expert Chris Sutton has made his predictions for this weekās FA Cup fifth-round ties.
For all eight games he is up against Kaiser Chiefs bassist and Leeds fan Simon Rix
Suttonās prediction: 3-1
Southampton have hit a bit of a sticky patch but they are still going to play the same way and be open and expansive.
They will give Liverpool room to play and the fact the game is at Anfield should help Jurgen Kloppās side too, whether he goes with the kids again like he did at Wembley, or not.
We do not know if any of the big guns will be back for Liverpool after missing the Carabao Cup final, but we know that, as a team, they are hungry for trophies.
In fact, Klopp will be gluttonous, and want to win everything in his final season in charge of the Reds.
Saints will be brave but Liverpool just love to press teams and are so good at it. That will probably be the difference.
Simonās prediction: 2-1
I would love Southampton to have a long and fruitful FA Cup run so they are not thinking about promotion, but I really cannot see it happening for them. You have got the āJurgen Klopp farewellā factor because I definitely think everyone is doing it for him at Liverpool at the moment, but also Saints have now lost three of their past four games in the Championship after being on that long unbeaten run, so they are not in particularly good form.
But then heās not really wrong 
Them only scoring 3 would be a relief!

Iād like to see this evening played like this
Not sure Lumley Meghoma, Stephens, Charles Mara, Brooks, Dibling et al have that level of shithousery in them tbh
I watched that earlier, only 1 card shown during the game!!
It was amazing the way the players just took it, no histrionics, not much retaliation. Just dust down and get on with itā¦

No problems there, donāt dish it out if you canāt take it was the order of the day.
Every team had their hatchet men. At that time Saint, Dennis Hollywood was known as the baby faced assassin.
In Dennis Lawās autobiography he says during a game at The Dell he caught Hollywood with a nasty tackle early on. Hollywood just gave him a cold stare and Law never touched the ball for the rest of the game.

Actually I had the privilege of being hacked down by Denis Hollywood in a Sunday League game.
The game kicked-off, the ball passed to me, I turned to shield the ball as he advanced and he felled me. Ref blew and Denis checked if I was OK, āYepā I said, āI consider it an honour to have been fouled by youā

Shock horror, Lord Slowlane tugs forelock and grovels to his footballing superior
I hope the staff didnāt witness it.
Feckin typical.
Saints on telly and me in hotel bar in Brizzle and having bagged prime seat to watch the match on big telly as loud as I like, and in walks a colleague who Iāve been working with today on getting rid of some dead wood. Didnāt realise he was booked in same hotel.
Heās not a son of the soccer field so doesnāt want to watch the footie.
Ffs- Heās the dead wood for next time 
No the staff are unaware of my Achillies Heelā¦deifying Ex-Saints pro footballers. 
The B team are going to give their all!
