    Fellaini and Henderson playing in this fixture would be a disgrace to the sport!

    We know what a lumbering talentless oath Fellaini is. But Henderson will do his "I'm a big man" 'strutt and stare' whilst doing **** all on the pitch to earn the high opinion he has of himself. And yet he will still be lapped up by the fawning Lvpl fans in that ground.

    No, I'm not really.

    I think we'll lose, quite possibly heavily.

    Indeed.

    I would have had a bright and cheery match day thread though, full of optimism.

    I'm going to have to watch this out in a 'neutral' venue, which means there will no doubt be loads of ****s wearing Liverpool shirts in my breathing space. I had it last year in the europa league game, I was very tense!

    Think I may go to a mates house to watch. Don't think I could cope with being in the pub to watch it.

    If we don't beat the RS then JM will come under intense pressure. Even LVG has been able to beat them on a regular basis. With an arguably better team, JM should really dispatch them. but no doubt the RS are already expecting the ref to give them favours by moaning about his residence. What price a penalty after a sturridge or mane dive? they've been practising since the start of the season.

    I agree with this post especially after losing points to Stoke. We were extremely lucky City lost to Spurs in their last game. That took the press off Jose's back for the break. But if we can win this match, it could really kickstart our season. Jose is a master tactician. We would need that to crack this next game. No missteps with selection either.

    Great! The lousiest pundit and predictor and ex RS predicts that the RS will win by 2-0.

    That's it then. We might as well all go home as Lawro says that United will have difficulty with the RS's pressing game. United will have nothing to lose as no one is giving them and Mourinho a chance.

    Not bad.

    But are you serious -Buchan at left back? All the macthes I've seen him play he's been in Central defence and not as a left back.

    Only because I had run out of United defenders.

    I know where he played, the alternative was pick a Liverpool player!!

    He was the most versatile of the centre halves left, you wouldn't stick Bruce at full back, eh?

    I feel quite confident we will win this.

    However, you never know.

    You have a habit of beating us at Anfield and these games don't always got to form.

    I always remember the results we used to get via Murphy when you guys were quite a lot better than us on paper.

    Let the best team win <ok>
