Liverpool’s quadruple hunt continued on Thursday evening after securing an 11-2 Europa League Round of 16 win at the expense of Sparta Prague.

Jurgen Klopp’s side found themselves four goals to the good inside the first quarter of an hour played at Anfield and will now take on Atalanta in the quarter-finals of the competition.

Attempting to keep hopes of claiming another trophy alive, the Reds will take on Manchester United on Sunday afternoon for the chance to advance to the semi-finals.

Looking ahead to this while discussing Thursday’s European success, four Liverpool supporters have shared their views as part of a weekly ECHO fan column.

Rhys Buchanan (Aigburth, @Rhys_Buchanan) – Adding to Manchester United misery a huge incentive for Sunday

It feels like we’re well and truly in dreamland as Liverpool supporters at the moment. To have cruised through into the Europa League quarter finals at Anfield against Sparta Prague and be so handily placed at the top of the league is more than we could have ever asked for at the start of the season. Of course, one more hurdle lies ahead before we can all relax for a weekend as the international break returns.

But for now, all roads lead to Old Trafford on Sunday. I’m going into this one completely optimistic and I believe it’s a no-brainer for Jurgen to go full strength for it. With 9000 Liverpool supporters in the away end, how good would it be to pile on the misery for the red side of Manchester and keep our own feel-good factor intact? These are the days: there’s not many more left under Klopp so saviour every last second of it.

Andrew Cullen (Widnes, @brothersred5) – Endo continues to go under the radar

What a magnificent performance it was last Sunday against Manchester City. What a febrile, frenetic atmosphere.

When an opposition player drops to the canvas, usually the aim is to stifle momentum. When City adopted this ruse on Sunday, much to their surprise, it did not halt momentum, it intensified it, as the Anfield decibels reached the outer regions of Manchester.

Pep Guardiola’s side were caught between a whirlpool created by the Anfield atmosphere and the sharp, cutting rocks of the Liverpool midfield.

Wataru Endo knocked Kevin De Bruyne off his balance during the midfield battle, so much so that the City talisman was hauled off, kicking and screaming. The surest sign you may think that Liverpool had obliterated the Sky Blues’ midfield.

While receiving some plaudits this year, Endo has not been given the same acclaim as Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister, yet the Japan international has been instrumental in Klopp’s 2.0 team. Signed as a backup, he now resides at the front of the Liverpool charge.

Guardiola was accurate to describe the Anfield attack as like a tsunami. After another impressive display at home against Sparta Prague, the Great Wave of Liverpool is gaining momentum.

David Shams (Beijing, @ShamsWriter) – Let’s keep up our cup success

Another week down and Liverpool, in spite of the footballing gods, remains in all four competitions. After beating Sparta Prague 11-2 over two legs, we now face a Europa League quarter-final showdown with Atalanta. Another two matches on the calendar, another two to show this season isn’t a fluke. Whatever rebuild Jurgen Klopp had planned for this season, the results simply aren’t an anomaly. That, in fact, this Liverpool he hands over to his successor will remain a force in the coming decade.

But in the short-term, a challenge lies ahead: a visit to the crumbling heap of despair that is Old Trafford. Our kids, of course, will rise to the occasion again, just as they have in every other case. They’re gonna be alright. Some of our first-choice mainstays will contribute as well, acting as an anchor for Klopp’s kids as they continue to grow.

A win gives us another opportunity to continue this magical run, which is evermore special for the most obvious reason. But more importantly, the run continues to build for the future – a future without our talismanic manager and some of our ageing stars.

James Noble (Worcestershire, @james_noble98) – Edwards return a boost for Reds

This Liverpool side continue to find ways to stir the soul.

Sunday’s 1-1 Premier League draw with Manchester City may not have brought the ideal result, but it’s certainly one we can make work. Those on the pitch and in Anfield’s stands produced a performance of enlivening quality, intensity and character.

There were so many superb displays: Virgil van Dijk led with familiar poise; Alexis Mac Allister again oozed tempo-setting class; Wataru Endo, Luis Díaz and Harvey Elliott simply refused to relent.

Thursday’s 6-1 Europa League round of 16 second-leg win over Sparta Prague then provided four goals in 415 first-half seconds, the excellent Bobby Clark’s first senior goal, and valuable rhythm for the record-setting Mohamed Salah, among others, to earn an enticing quarter-final against Atalanta.

Meanwhile, confirmation that Michael Edwards will become FSG’s CEO of Football in the summer, with Bournemouth’s Richard Hughes widely anticipated to take up LFC’s sporting director role, bodes well for the sporting structure post-Jürgen Klopp.

Now for Sunday’s FA Cup quarter-final at Manchester United, of course. Another appetising challenge. With 9,000 travelling supporters set to back us, let’s thrive upon it and earn another trip to Wembley after the international break.

Mohamed Salah ‘willing to stay at Liverpool on two conditions’
By Ben Knapton, Senior Reporter | 15 March 2024

Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah is reportedly happy to stay at Anfield beyond the end of the summer transfer window if two certain conditions are met.

Following a summer transfer saga in which he was the subject of a £150m bid from Al-Ittihad – which Liverpool turned down – the 31-year-old has continued to rewrite the history books under Jurgen Klopp.

On Thursday evening, Salah scored the Reds’ third goal in their 6-1 Europa League demolition of Sparta Prague, becoming the first player in the history of the club to net 20 times in seven consecutive seasons.

With 206 goals from 336 appearances in a Liverpool jersey – in addition to 92 assists – only four players, Ian Rush, Billy Liddell, Gordon Hodgson and Roger Hunt, have found the net for the Reds on more occasions.

However, there has been no change to Salah’s contract situation since the summer of 2022, and as things stand, the ex-Chelsea and Roma man will be able to leave the club for nothing at the end of the 2024-25 campaign.

Such a scenario is unthinkable for the Reds hierarchy, but they are braced for summer bids from the Public Investment Fund-backed teams of the Saudi Pro League, who have long earmarked Salah as their number one transfer target.

A contract extension on Merseyside is not believed to be out of the question, though, and according to Football Insider, the 31-year-old would be willing to stay with Liverpool if he receives a couple of assurances from the board.

The report states that Salah wants to be kept in the know about the club’s plans for the future and is also keen to know who their first-choice candidate is to replace Klopp, who will call time on his Reds career at the end of the season, although he has already affirmed that the German’s exit will not impact his decision.

Bayer Leverkusen’s Xabi Alonso – whom Liverpool could take on in the 2023-24 Europa League final – is at the top of their shortlist, but Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Real Madrid could all be after the Spaniard too.

Sporting Lisbon’s Ruben Amorim and Germany’s Julian Nagelsmann are alternative options, and the Reds’ owners Fenway Sports Group have already undertaken a transformation of their upstairs department with the return of Michael Edwards.

The former Liverpool sporting director will start work as FSG’s CEO of Football in June, where he will be tasked with overseeing the search for a new head coach and guiding the club through their transitional period.

Confirmation of Edwards’s return arrived this week, and the Merseyside giants are now expected to wrap up the acquisition of sporting director Richard Hughes, who recently left his post at Bournemouth.

Liverpool have been without a transfer guru since Jorg Schmadtke left at the end of January, prior to which Julian Ward – Edwards’s successor – stepped down from his position after just one season.

Despite a pair of muscle injuries since the turn of the year, Salah boasts another brilliant total of 20 goals and 13 assists from 31 Liverpool games in 2023-24, also setting up three of the Reds’ six strikes against Sparta on Thursday.

Klopp’s side will meet Atalanta BC in the Europa League quarter-finals next month, and Salah is expected to retain his place in the first XI for Sunday’s FA Cup quarter-final with Manchester United.

Jurgen Klopp made on pitch apology after angry moment in Liverpool win
Jurgen Klopp was cautioned by the referee during Liverpool’s 6-1 victory over Sparta Prague

Jurgen Klopp has apologised after he was booked in Liverpool’s 6-1 victory over Sparta Prague.

Goals from Darwin Nunez, Bobby Clark, Mohamed Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai, and a Cody Gakpo brace clinched an emphatic win for the Reds as they progressed to the Europa League quarter-finals. But despite the hefty victory, the German reacted furiously after Jarell Quansah was shown a controversial yellow card in the second half of the 11-2 aggregate win

Speaking after the game, Klopp revealed he had spoken to referee Artur Dias and did not have an issue with the yellow cards as he explained his animated reaction.

“Actually the thing is we wanted to change and the fourth official was showing it but the ref let the game go on and then we get the yellow card (for Quansah),” he said. “The yellow card wasn’t the problem I was afraid Conor Bradley could get injured in that situation and that’s what clicked a little bit in my mind.

“I told the ref after the game the yellow card was fine. I was calm before and calm after, just in that little moment I lost it a little bit. Sorry.”

Klopp also shared his sympathy with Sparta Prague and their travelling supporters after being on the receiving end of the most convincing of Liverpool victories, before wishing them in their pursuit of the Czech title.

“Yeah, there is a quality difference. It was before the game clear,” he said. “It is always like this, if the team with the higher quality shows the right attitude it will be tricky.

“I worked for a smaller club in Germany with Mainz and you can win games (against bigger teams) but you really need help from the opponents and we didn’t need help. We showed a top, top attitude and it was difficult for Sparta.

“It is now a tough week for Sparta, but the supporters enjoyed the trip at least and how they behaved in the home game was great. Now the rest of the season starts and they can fight for the title.”

Having done the hard work in Czechia last week, Liverpool will look to get the job done at home today as they host Sparta Prague in this Europa League last-16 second-leg fixture.

Jurgen Klopp’s Reds take a comfortable 5-1 lead into this game, after a near-perfect showing in Prague in the first leg at Letná Stadium, with Alexis Mac Allister, Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz and Dominik Szoboszlai all getting on the scoresheet.

Mohamed Salah is ready to start for the hosts, while Jakub Posek, David Pavelka and Asger Sorensen are all rated as doubtful for Sparta.

Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch every game live wherever you are in the world.

Liverpool vs. Sparta Prague: When and where?
Liverpool host Sparta Prague at Anfield on Thursday, March 14. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. GMT local time in the UK, which is 4 p.m. ET or 1 p.m. PT in the US and Canada, and 7 a.m. AEDT on Friday, March 15 in Australia.

How to watch Liverpool vs. Sparta Prague online from anywhere using a VPN
If you find yourself unable to view Europa League matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the action; that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic. It’s also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you’re able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, nonblackout area. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.

Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming UEFA Europa League matches using a VPN
With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming Europa League games may vary.
If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search for city or country” option.
If you’re having trouble getting the game after you’ve turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs — like Roku — don’t have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network’s sports app, you’ll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help since both devices will appear to be in the correct location.
Remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
