Last seasons result of this fixture
Liverpool 0 - 1 Manchester United

Liverpool haven't beaten Manchester United at Anfield since the FA Cup meeting
between the sides in 2005 when Liverpool went on to win the cup.




First big clash of the season and we're ready for it!

Nice graphic Keano. This is the monster of ALL games. Love playing the
Scousers. It will be tight but we should win it. We certainly wont lose against
them anyway. We are far too strong and have been dominating these games for
years. Also, we should have all our players back fit (bar Ronaldo)
Hargo, Park, Nani, Giggs, Roo, Tev, Saha, Berba? to choose from as well.
Carrick may even be fit. I love these games and I cannot wait!

I can't wait for this game.

IMO Anderson and Hargreaves have to play. Anderson is our best big game player while Hargreaves has been brilliant everytime he's faced top opposition (Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal ect)

This should be our team:


---------------------------------VDS----------------------------------------

---Brown-------------Rio------------------Vidic----------------Evra---

--------------Hargreaves----Scholes----Anderson-----------------

---Tevez------------------------------------------------------------Nani---

--------------------------------Rooney-----------------------------------


Carrick won't be 100% fit and even if he was I wouldn't play him in this match, we have a mixture of of possession, aggression and pace in that midfield. I would use this vs Chelsea aswell tbh.

If we have to we can always move Hargreaves/Anderson on the wing and Tevez to come more centrally to make a 4-4-2 aswell.

If we happen to get Berbatov then put him upfront with Rooney in Nani's position.

I know Rooney/Tevez aren't the best on the wings but Anfield is quite tight so it shouldnt matter that much.

WE MUST BEAT THEM.
PLEASE ! Oh god i can't bare the thought.

I thought a few week's back a 0-0 draw. But looking at them tonight against Standard and against Boro they really aren't any better than last season. So i think we will win 1-0 AGAIN ;)

Everyone fit ? Bar Ronaldo then I think we should go with ...

VDS

Brown Rio Vida Evra

Hargreaves
Nani Scholes Carrick/Anderson Giggs

Rooney

Tevez/Berbatov.

1-0 to UNITED !! Giggsy with the strike ;)

i think the GOOD thing about united at the moment is after andersons showing vs pompy and the fact we have 3 of the best CM in the world you get a good problem, who to take out, it seems anderson is coming to form and you clearly cant drop scholes not carrick but then theres hargo also its great.

but untill ronaldo is back i say we play hargo on the right and perhaps the 3 in the CM if not use anderson as a super sub

The true encouragement to take to this match is the way Liverpool are playing at the moment against Standard Liege, i say this because with United comes width and if we play with width we will create chances and eventually take one, and the way we have been deffending we are more than capable of keeping a clean sheet so the odd goal form Rooney or Tevez is all we would need in my opinion, however we may have signed a clincal finisher by then which will make us even more of an obstacle for the scousers, they look dyer against Liege and i wish the game was being played tomorrow, the signing of Robbie Keane seems to have congested them and they look so easy to mark.

I think we will beat the 1-0 / 2-0 and i fancy Tevez to have another great game, im also tiping Hargreaves to return and play a big part along with Anderson.

Well judging by there performance today we should win this one.
Squad to play if all still fit after super cup and internationals:
- - - - - - - - - VDS - - - - - - - - -
Brown - Ferdinand - Vidic - Evra
Tevez - Hargreaves - Ando - Nani
- - - - - Rooney - - - Berbatov :)

Thats if berbatov is with us by then of course.

If Liverpool keep playing as poorly as they have done recently, it's only a matter of time before they get punished.

You get the feeling with United as well that we're due to start banging in the goals again soon and it would be
perfect if the two events coincided and we thumped them again.

They are due a result against us though because we've beaten them the last five times we've played them.

I just hope we can take at least a draw from this because with another difficult away game to Chelsea straight
after, we could be in danger of falling behind in the title race too early.


------------------VDS-------------------

Brown - Ferdinand - Vidic - Evra

Hargreaves - Scholes - Anderson - Nani

---------------Tevez - Rooney-----------



Edit: Looks like Gerrard will miss the game :)

This is a MUST WIN!!!
I can't stand the Scousers and if they beat us it will be so humiliating!
I think we can get the 3 points and if worst comes to worst 1 point will do.

My team would be:

-------------------VDS---------------------

--Wes------Rio-----------Vidic----------Evra--

---Hargo----Scholes-----Carrick----Nani---

-------Berbatov----------Rooney--------

Bench:
Kuszack
G. Neville
O'Shea
Giggs
Fletcher
Anderson
Tevez

Tevez comes on for either striker depending on performance.
Anderson comes on for Scholesy.
Giggs on for Nani.
All subs 2nd half after like 60th min mark.

If Berba is not ours by tomorrow then Tevez would take his place in the starting line up and the bench would be filled up by someone else.

Torres is an idiot.

::takes Torres aside::

Fernando, what part about score a hat trick and lose 4-3 don't you understand?!!? What part of that says "get injured, thus crippling my fantasy team"?

:: punches Torres in head ::

Anyway, kind of glad he's hurt too, since Robbie Keane looks worse than I do in the forward department, plus Gerrard's gone so nobody will be able to set the table for him. So, if they're banking on "Dirk Kuyt to the Rescue!" again, I'm about as giddy as a young lad on Christmas morning.
