Actually mack, I think Ian offers a good repost to that lower L1 rubbish. Patently they were not that whatever their level
A Championship side would have took them apart. They haven't played together and are not the sum of their parts. We played really well, fully deserved to win, but only let down by a couple of typical defensive lapses. Anyone outside of Exeter will see the replay as a foregone conclusion, I think we can play even better in the replay.

Saw Greg Dyke sitting next to Taggy. This was his vision, Premier U21 sides playing against League 2

Interestingly the Daggers didn't manage a shot on target at Goodison against a second string Everton today, as they say, football is a funny old game.

Loving the free flowing entertaining football at S
Geoff the Liverpool starting line up had 34 LFC appearances between them - Benteke having 21 of those and Bogdan 4 so the remaining 9 players had 10 appearances between them

Matt Oakley has had made more career appearances than the entire Liverpool squad last night (not including Lucas & Lallana) who didn't come on anyway

A decent league 1 side or championship would of stuffed Liverpool last night

Correct, I hope Klopp gives Exeter and the FA Cup more respect by fielding a stronger team in the replay, I expect that Liverpool fans will demand this.

I don't think it's about respect, I think he was stuck between a rock and a hard place. A ridiculous amount of injuries, arsenal and man u to play in the forthcoming week. With that in mind, could he risk the remaining first teamers, getting injured and then getting stuffed by arsenal or man u or both? Probably not. If he had a full strength team and having Alex Inglethorpe at Liverpool, who may well have mentioned what happened at OT 11 years ago. I doubt we would have seen as many youngsters playing last night.

So do I. It should be interesting, particularly if we have a full squad to pick from.
