Ties to be played week commencing Monday 18 December.

A great draw, that!

Liverpool v West Ham

That’s the end of the draw.

Port Vale v Middlesbrough

League One v Championship for a place in the semi-finals!

Chelsea v Newcastle

Brutal run for Newcastle. City, United and now Chelsea.

Everton v Fulham

Andy Cole, doing the draw, thought No 6 (Fulham) might have been a 9. There are eight teams in the draw.

Here we go. Finally.

The draw should be along any minute now … promise. Sky are so engrossed in their Manchester United analysis that they seem to have forgotten about the rest of us.

Carabao Cup match reports

Look at this team. No centre backs, loads of full-backs, no recognised centre forward. An injury to Targett after two minutes. And yet they taught Manchester United a lesson tonight, with a clean sheet to boot (to match the clean sheet in the win over Manchester City in the last round).

It’s just a shame that Eddie Howe, who is an excellent football manager, seems to either have fallen for the sportswashing, or is a conscious cog in the system. This is a delusional statement. Any football fan that is LGBTQ+ or anyone that dares to criticise the current regime and wants to go to the 2034 men’s World Cup will surely not feel “well looked after” in Saudi Arabia.

Here are the teams for the Carabao Cup quarter-final draw:

1. Middlesbrough

2. Port Vale

3. Liverpool

4. Chelsea

5. Everton

6. Fulham

7. Newcastle United

8. West Ham United

Nobody apart from Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea has won the League Cup in the past decade. It would be nice to see someone different this time around. Not sure there is much romance to a Newcastle triumph, though. Forza Port Vale.

Full-time at Old Trafford. Utterly miserable for Manchester United, thrashed 3-0 by Newcastle.

Just a reminder that this liveblog will be covering the Carabao Cup quarter-final draw, which will take place in about 15 minutes.

These are the teams in the hat.

… and surely Newcastle United, who lead Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford with four minutes to go in the 90.

ABSOLUTE SCENES IN GERMANY. Worth noting that Bayern had an extremely strong team out, and brought on Gnabry, Laimer, Coman and Musiala from the bench. An XI that already included Tel, Müller, Sané, De Ligt, Kimmich, Alphonso Davies, Choupo-Moting and Neuer. Eeeeeesh.

Meanwhile in Germany …

Bayern just lost to third-tier Saarbrücken and are out of the DFB-Pokal (German Cup) ….

Thanks to Marc Haemmerling Ingo Herzke for flagging via email.

Full-time: Ipswich 1-3 Fulham

Fulham have never won a major domestic title. Just sayin’.

Full-time: Chelsea 2-0 Blackburn

A rare win for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and good for the Blues to gain some confidence before the game at Premier League leaders Tottenham on Monday.

Full-time: Everton 3-0 Burnley

Comprehensive win for Sean Dyche against his former side.

Full-time: Bournemouth 1-2 Liverpool

Nunez wins it for the Reds with a sensational goal! Absolutely bucketing it down on the south coast.

GOAL! Everton 3-0 Burnley (Young 90+2)

Game over at Goodison. Beto shows great strength and pace to shrug off a defender, drives to the byline, and passes across to Young, who had scampered into the box to toe it into the net.

Chelsea 2-0 Blackburn

90 min: The final minutes at Stamford Bridge, as Sterling has a chance to make it three (and double his tally for the evening), but pulls his effort wide after creating some room for himself in Rovers’ box. Blackburn started well and could have had a penalty but are well beaten here in the end.

GOAL! Ipswich 1-3 Fulham (Baggott 79)

Ipswich get one back immediately! Ten minutes left, this game isn’t dead yet! Elkan Baggott – born in Thailand, raised in England, but represents his mother’s country of Indonesia – was left completely unmarked at the back post from an Ipswich corner, despite being 6ft3in.

GOAL! Ipswich 0-3 Fulham (Cairney 77)

Ipswich have been run ragged down their left. De Cordova-Reid canters down the right wing, cuts the ball back and Cairney is there on the edge to place the ball past Walton. A brilliant performance by the Londoners.

Full-time: West Ham 3-1 Arsenal

“You should have signed for a big club”, the West Ham fans chant to Declan Rice. The Hammers are into the quarter-finals. Moyes, the cup maestro, marches on.

GOAL! West Ham 3-1 Arsenal (Odegaard 90+6)

It’s taken 96 minutes, but Arsenal finally threaten through Odegaard, who was brought on late by Arteta. The Norwegian finishes nicely from an acute angle to cap a miserable night for Arsenal.

West Ham 3-0 Arsenal

90 min: The final minutes of the game at the London Stadium. West Ham have absolutely bossed Arsenal, with the away fans already turning to leave. If it stays like this, it will be West Ham’s biggest win over the Gunners since the 1960s.

GOAL! Bournemouth 1-2 Liverpool (Nunez 70)

Bournemouth were really starting to grow into the game since Kluivert’s equaliser, but Klopp made a couple of changes – including the introduction of Alexander-Arnold and Nunez – and the latter scored a worldie goal to swing the game back in Liverpool’s favour! The Uruguayan cuts in from the left wing, and lets fly from 25 yards on the angle. Radu has not chance, it’s a dipping, swirling effort that nips just under the crossbar. Wow.

Speaking of goalkeeping, here’s an email from Eagle Brosi, from Virginia.

“Everyone is moaning about poor Aaron Ramsdale losing his place to Raya but last season Arsenal’s old backup keeper – Bernd Leno – was (arguably) the best keeper in the Premier League. And when Leno was the No 1 at Arsenal – Emi Martinez – who was just named the best goalkeeper in the world? – had to sit on the bench. It’s all a bit weird because I haven’t felt confident in an Arsenal goalkeeper since the start of Petr Cech’s first game for the Gunners.”

GOAL! Bournemouth 1-1 Liverpool (Kluivert 64)

Bournemouth equalise with one of the most Sunday League goals ever scored in the Carabao Cup. The wind is absolutely howling towards Liverpool’s goal and Bournemouth have an inswinging corner. Kelleher completely misjudges the flight of the cross, which flies over everyone but Justin Kluivert at the back post. The Dutchman is completely unmarked and nods gratefully into the net. Awful defending, even in the conditions.

GOAL! Chelsea 2-0 Blackburn (Sterling 59)

Sterling pounces! Palmer intercepts a rogue pass as Rovers try to play out from the back. Sterling takes over possession, dribbles into the area and curls a wonderful shot into the top corner! A classic R2 finish, for all you Pro Evo fans.

GOAL! Everton 2-0 Burnley (Onana 53)

Another textbook Dyche goal! Tarkowski nods a corner back into the six-yard box and Onana prods home from four yards out! It’s not a pretty goal, but my word, it’s effective. Everton had plenty of bodies in there, and the corner routine worked a treat.

GOAL! Ipswich 0-2 Fulham (Rodrigo Muniz 50)

Another great goal down the right-hand flank for the visitors. Castagne finds some space on the edge of the area, and crosses low, where Muniz is there at the back post to emphatically pass the ball into the net. This was a potentially dangerous cup tie for Fulham, but they are passing the test with flying colours.

Re the boos for Rice at West Ham, an email from Tom Atkins.

“Sky Sports’ microphones must be on the blink, because while the commentators are merrily telling us what a great reception he’s getting, I can hear a loud chorus of boos every time he goes near the ball”.

He is now getting the jeers, no doubt. But when he came on as sub, there was a large round of applause.

There have been some goals at Old Trafford. You can catch up with all the latest right here, with Scott Murray. Spoiler alert: it’s not good news if you like the colour red.

GOAL! West Ham 3-0 Arsenal (Bowen 59)

Three! The ball falls to Bowen on the edge of the box (typically in a zone where Rice would be expected to be for Arsenal), he has time to take a touch and lashes a fierce strike at goal. It’s a powerful effort but it looks at first like it might have been an error from Ramsdale in letting it creep into the net. But replays show a slight deflection off Kiwior, and the shot was too powerful for Ramsdale to react to the nick in time. The keeper could only palm it into the inside of the side netting.

West Ham 2-0 Arsenal

55 min: Arsenal are all at sea. Arteta make two changes, including the introduction of Declan Rice. The England international gets a largely position reception, although there are some boos. Come on lads, he’s one of your own, won you a European trophy and left for £105m.

GOAL! West Ham 2-0 Arsenal (Kudus 50)

Take that Declan Rice. Kudus, one of the players brought to West Ham with the money from the Rice transfer, doubles the home side’s lead. An absolutely astonishing goal, as the Ghanian traps a cross-field ball and cuts inside with one magical touch, before finishing into the far corner with his weaker left foot. Brilliant!

West Ham 1-0 Arsenal

46 min: Ben White clears off the line, after Ramsdale makes a brilliant save from Bowen’s shot. That chance was inside 30 seconds of the restart!
