How are we feeling about our next game. To be honest I don't give us much of a chance. We'd need everything to go our way I feel for us to get something. I do feel you can get at the Liverpool defence with balls behind but it's that bravery in defending from them that makes them so dangerous the other way too.
When you go back to when Liverpool were poor and we were good they did sometimes manage to raise their game and beat us. I'd like to think we could do that on Tuesday but I think a lot of their success in one off games against us in those days was down to Gerrard and Carragher. Two local lads who knew how big the game was. I just don't think we have their equivalent in our squad so it's always going to be more difficult.
I don't think it'll be 5-0 this time but I do seem them beating us in a routine fashionw (which in some ways would be worse if they felt they could just coast to victory!).
EDIT: such is the fickleness of football it's a chance for some of the United players to get some redemption too.
Liverpool away

I'd play a 9-0-1 formation and hope for a dodgy penalty

That midfield still looks bad!

Talking of penalties, we rarely ever get one these days. Maybe we are due some.

I think our last league penalty was away to Norwich City.

We’re rarely in the opposition penalty area.

It’s because referees hate us. Honestly the refs won’t give us anything, but the likes of Liverpool and City get everything.

You'd have to get into the box to get a penalty. Just can't see this happening.

They don't get everything, but surely you could understand why they would get more.
Playing most of the game in the opponents half increases the odds.

How can we be rarely in the opposition penalty area when we created the most chances since Rangnick took over?
