dylanjamesbelli think the defence will be key in this game and it will be interesting seeing who will line up in defence.

in my opinion Rio has become slower and isn't as quick making decisions as he used to be say 2-3 years ago.
Vidic is a dought due to his injury and so is Evra (injury on international duty)

i think the only players guaranteed a starting place in the side will be Rooney,Young&Nani.

NorfLondenHow many minutes have Vidic played since the start of season? Even he proves fit, his match fitness won't be there.

mojojojo101I think whether or not Ferdinand plays will depend heavily on how Fabio and Rafael are doing fitness wise (Fabio had to go off early against Costa Rica while on international duty).

If they are both injured then Smalling may have to shift to RB with Ferdinand coming into at centre-back. I don't think Vididc will play, he has been out for a while and is unlikely to be aharp enough for such a big game.

As far as a theat from Liverpool, I don't really see one, Dogleash's insistence on playing a 4-4-2 eith a big/little man will make easy (predictable) for the Utd defence unless Suarez is on top form, If Utd push high up the pitch to keep Carrol away from goal and deny Suarez space to roam then they really shouldn't prove too difficult to withstand.

ZolaThis will be a fairly even game, Liverpool is the most well rounded team ManU faced till now in PL. They are not top of their defensive game, Liverpool has every chance of exploiting that. My money is on ManU's first loss of the season.

Gonzalo "True Blue"I think it's going to be an open game, and will play on Man utd hands, as they have a terrific offensive game and top form players..
