    Well Bailly and Jones would go from the defense and really Lindelof and Shaw are very close to the chop. I'd bring Eathan Laird back as well, he's very good prospect currently at Bournemouth.

    It's still a big cull.

    Three goal keepers go.

    In midfield Matic, Mata, Lingard, Pogba go, plus some other squad players like Pellestri, Chong and Perreira.

    Up front Cavani, Greenwood, Martial all go, which would quite reasonably mean Ronaldo stays for one more season.

    Any more is too many, I've probably forgotten a couple as well.

    Even if United go 2 up I’d still put my money on Pool tonight

    it’s just not a match up

    I know everyone in the media and fanboy base is trying to build it up like they always do as the biggest derby bla bla because they pang for them days but let’s be real here.

    Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Thiago, Fabinho, Salah, Mane, Diaz.

    Centre-back Phil Jones starts as interim manager Ralf Rangnick makes four changes from the team which started Saturday's 3-2 Premier League win against Norwich.

    Jones, making only his second league appearance since January 2020, looks to be one of three centre-backs, while full-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, midfielder Nemanja Matic and striker Marcus Rashford also start.

    Man Utd XI: De Gea, Dalot, Maguire, Lindelof, Jones, Wan-Bissaka, Matic, Pogba, Fernandes, Elanga, Rashford.

    Maguire n Jones

    might aswell give Pool the points now

    Well not with wan Bissaka as a wing back but we could have with the two wing backs I'd suggested.

    He's gone right formation, wrong team.

    Pogba should be nowhere near this.
