Guys our result bears no relation to their result. They both played no hope bottom half teams. They were always going to win while we play our top 4 rival. Judge this game on its merits. It's tough enough without making it a must win game or we will be out of title race or something. A draw away wouldn't be terrible.
Harsh on Brighton. Anyways - stop being logical, I'm not used to it. Of course the only thing that matters is where you are when all things are equal, but part of the fun of football is following your progress on a game to game basis - watching your team go up or down the league.
Team news: Confirmed Liverpool line-up v Manchester United Ibrahima Konate starts in defence as Liverpool make two changes for today’s clash with Manchester United at Old Trafford. The 22-year-old replaces Joel Matip for the Premier League encounter, while the other alteration sees Diogo Jota come in for Sadio Mane. Fabinho is absent from the squad due to the effects of a knock sustained to his knee in Madrid in midweek. The issue is not thought to be long term. Meanwhile, Caoimhin Kelleher is also missing due to illness, but Curtis Jones returns on the bench. Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Milner, Keita, Jota, Salah, Firmino. Subs: Adrian, Mane, Gomez, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jones, Minamino, Tsimikas, Origi, Matip.
Apparently no Fabinho or mane starting. If fabs not injured i think klopps going for the throat in the 1st half kinda vibes, otherwise i dont get no fab.
Is Matip carrying an injury, or just giving him a rest. Hope Milner is subbed before he gets sent off.
Fabs is injured. The strongest part of the Utd team is their midfield, which is our weakest. Could be fun!!!
Erm, you think Fred b mctomminy is strongest part of their team? I’d say Greenwood Rashford and Ronaldo is about 6 levels above that.
Matip has been excellent so far...playing too many games why he is being rested? Is Gomez no more a defender?
