LIVERPOOL, England (Reuters) - Plans by Liverpool fans to give Manchester City's team coach a fiery welcome to Wednesday's Champions League quarter-final have been shrugged off by midfielder Kevin De Bruyne and manager Pep Guardiola. A Liverpool fan group has circulated on social media a call for fans to line the streets around Anfield: "Bring your flares and flags. A similar "coach greeting" was created by Liverpool fans before the all-English semi-final with Chelsea in the Champions League in 2005, won by the Merseyside club. City manager Pep Guardiola said he hoped the Liverpool fans would keep their welcome within limits. Hopefully it's going to go well and Liverpool fans can show their history speaks for itself."
