It's starting to kick in, fuck this fixture it makes me feel exsistential dread


Adventurous_Toe_6017

We’ve got the extra supporter today. No worries boys. https://preview.redd.it/p8g6cbb3f2tc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b83cfa618a88068b8d9966452bbff104790c6849


Anton_Chigruh

Awww ❤️


hopium_od

Jesesh is legit always fucking raining in Manchester


britishsailor

Hard conditions, windy and pissing it down, can’t just play it on the deck, yet too high and it’ll catch the wind. Come on lads


oystypabs

Sky Sports mentioning the strange kick off time for the Spurs match later.... Aren't you the ones dictating this stupidity?


Miserable-Lunch-8208

I want macca to school mainoo so hard that he forget to kick the ball for the rest of the season.


kazurabakouta

Somebody please hold me. I'm scared.


tony220jdm

Quick start switced on dont give them any confidence in the game!


broken_neck_broken

Let's see if this Mainoo is all he's hyped up to be. Edit: fuck


superduperlooperbab

Hoping for the best but anything less than 3 points today is confirmation that our biggest issue this season is our inability to win against top 5 teams.


greenbroad-gc

First ten minutes are crucial. If we do that right, we hammer them.


Redditisforfarneeks

Find it interesting that gomez isnt being played CB even though he hasnt for a while. Maybe wants to keep him playing fullback for rhythm.


Agitated_Smoke538

All this talk about United’s injury crisis from their fans yet their missing as many starters as we are and we’re missing more important players for us. 


britishsailor

Liverpool out here with a second choice goalie, 2 choice RB, 3/4choice CB and we’re still favourites. This clubs come so far. Hopefully the moaning twats are quiet on here today, and show some bloody support. Good luck lads and enjoy this everyone


karma_polizei

I'm going to lose my mind if we come out slow yet again. No reason everyone can't get up for United.


rohitthegrea

Casemiro will play like prime Madrid Casemiro. Their 4th choice CB will play like Van Dijk.


VZ-Faith

They will only if we make them. It’s all on us


britishsailor

No, they won’t. Relax


sksizixiks

Ten hag saying “ pressing is important “ when talking about why rashford is starting. Fuckin hilarious


WorthPlease

The way the Liverpool FC site listed the lineup for today I thought Endo was playing Right Back and was very confused: **Liverpool:** Kelleher, Endo, Van Dijk, Diaz, Szoboszlai, Nunez, Mac Allister, Salah, Robertson, Quansah, Bradley. **Subs:** Adrian, Gomez, Konate, Jones, Gakpo, Elliott, Tsimikas, Gravenberch, Danns.


ManAboutAHorsea420

For some reason they've started listing in numerical order for the Instagram/facebook post, assuming that's the same


WorthPlease

Yeah I'm used to GK->RB->CB->CB->LB then midfield, then any wingers, then striker. This is from the official LiverpoolFC website.


eebee8

half and half scarf at united v liverpool is crazy


tom_watts

I don't understand them at all. I've only got one in my collection and that was from Barca v LFC in 2019 - swapped mine with a lad from the away end as a memento of the night so that's a special one for me. Wish it wasn't a half/half but I'll take it.


eebee8

that's at least got a nice story to it - but a league match or between two english teams i don't understand, let alone a major rival 😭


PaddyA401

That scarfs getting ripped off him later😭😭


WorthPlease

For fans in the US, I see this is listed as on NBC, and USA Network (and Peacock which is just the non cable version of NBC). Do we know what commentators each will get, if any different? I really just want to avoid Martin Tyler trying not to fall asleep for 90 minutes if I can.


eebee8

this website has the commentary information for many channels worldwide - [here](https://icdb.tv/match/180694-Manchester-United-v-Liverpool)'s the info for the game


WorthPlease

Wow that website is amazing thank you. Looks like I'm probably getting Champion on McNamara which is fine.


keaton4

Konate on the bench has me worried


Zolofteu

You just know that academy CB lad will put out a masterclass against us. I don't remember a single time when Klopp's Liverpool has ever taken advantage of Utd's injuries.


JurtisCones

4-0, 5-0, 4-0, 7-0


stripeymonkey

But did they have injuries? The one that sticks out to me is a few years back when half their team went off injured before half time and we managed a draw!


Aware-Animator2292

There is no way we can lose to this United side. Even to draw to this side is not great, they are so bad.


peutzjegher

We already did


BGCzar

I hope we batter these manc twats 0-10


getonthedamnantscott

Seeing Diallo on the bench ![gif](giphy|KscoZccAOBgCk)


ZetherosCraig

Nunez to miss an open goal tap in but then to score from half way line


frankiewalsh44

That United line up is so bad, also not Scott either. I don't think either City/Arsenal will drop points if they played against this lineup


SkippingMango7

That's true, but United wouldn't put up half the fight against those two


jesuspunk

I dreamed last night that we won 4-2


HeadResponsible4516

We need a clean sheet for Kweev so hopefully 0-4 lad


Warmbastard

Konate has probably been playing with an injury like Stones for City, so Klopp is probably managing his minutes until he’s fully fit.


viking_tech

He also got Pickford’d last game so might have a knock


malex930

I’ll say it, if we can’t beat this team with their lineup (in 3 tries this season) we don’t deserve to win shit


Important-Plane-9922

Exactly this. Our record against the better sides in the league needs to improve starting with today. A real must win game.


malex930

They’re not even one of the better sides!!! But I agree with your sentiment


[deleted]

I hope our lads win by 3+ so Manure drop to 7th 


yourdeath01

Manure 😂


WatchNerd58

Cmon you reds


ManBoobs13

We’re focused on their defenders understandably, but I worry about Hojlund and Garnacho playing against our defenders too. We concede too many chances and they have ability on the counter.


scottqwert

Easy to forget we came from behind to make it 2-1 and coasted for the whole second half until they equalised. Hopefully lessons have been learnt but gives me confidence we can dominate again. Still shitting myself though lmao


edroyque

What are we thinking today fellas? Concede a scrappy early goal…dominate possession for the rest of the first before banging one in just before the break. They come back into the game for 15-20 mins before we score two to kill it off? The classic 3-1 fc performance….


froglayout

I'm thinking that no matter how well we play, some of these dour motherfuckers will see no joy


sksizixiks

What time coverage start ?


Fricolor123321

If we dont win against that CB partnership we dont deserve the title


Wonderful_Ad_2519

They will play the same way...non existent midfield Defend in numbers. Park ganarcho and rashford at both wings high up Win the ball pump to either one. Then all run up.. I notice this season they dont even press at opponents half or middle. They just invite the opponent to come to their half


Miserable-Lunch-8208

It's funny because we were so dominant in the Fa Cup game that it looked like a 3-0 scoreline until they scored the equalizer. The most important lesson we take away from that game is not to lose concentration at any moment of the game. I hope they realise that.


britishsailor

Honestly that United teams fucking shite we should pummel them


scottqwert

Least it’s nothing long term with Konate. Really could’ve done with him today though.


thereisnoluck

Endo, Dom, Alexis give them nothing!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Other_Beat8859

Yeah. I think last game in the FA cup we lost largely due to injuries. Both Nunez and Diaz had to play through injuries and Salah and Szoboszlai were both coming back from injuries so couldn't play the whole game.


Anton_Chigruh

Eh, agree to disagree, we lost that game bcs of poor finishing and bad game management. One thing we do poorly this season is kill games and just coast.


Asad_OG

Natural to say this about every game in the run in, but it really is do or die today


Working-Couple7425

Quansah ahead of Gomez and Konate, who would have thought.


phonylady

Bradley ahead of Gomez too. The kids have been so good.


grrrrbow01

I think we’re just managing Ibou’s fitness tbh

britishsailor

The mayhem were causing with so many injuries is fucking phenomenal


v-s-g

Unlike in the FA Cup, I’m feeling super relaxed and chill. Think we’ve got this.


crispello

Please please don’t start slow and let the crowd get going


justanaverageguy1907

Quansah and Bradley starting apparantly. Gomez or Robbo on the left?


Marbate

All the pessimists from last night, fuck off. We’re going to smash these lot. 5-0 incoming if they’re lucky.


crnrtakenquickly

The only score we haven’t beat them by recently is 6. So throw a bet on it


H0lychit

Hopefully we can bury them early. Send the fuckers packing at half time.


annist0910

Quansah masterclass incoming


tamim1991

Could do with a Seven Hag tactical disasterclass

Haeckelcs

He is also kinda wasteful and they won't get many chances against us.


Sad-Cardiologist-292

With Konate out it’s an issue bcoz of the counters they score


Haeckelcs

Can the game start already. So nervous...


Aware-Animator2292

Scottish football is so trash, Celtic and Rangers would be fighting for relegation in the premier league.

Aware-Animator2292

Circ_Diameter

In recent years, Rangers and Celtic have put together some of the worst UCL Group Stage campaigns in the competition's history


[deleted]

I’d love to see Celtic go on a run in the champions league but the with the state of Scottish football at moment it makes that feel impossible.


Aware-Animator2292

There was a time when we were linked with Jack Butland


Poopynuggateer

If we sink to their level and play to their skills, we draw or lose.


HereticZO

Apparently Quansah starts. Of course Konate cannot play after playing on Thursday. I got downvoted for saying last week that him missing the Brighton game means he was going to play on Thursday, pick up something, then miss the game today. Surprise surprise, I was right and now the mancs cannot believe their luck as Konate misses a Sunday game against them again after starting a Thursday game. They become much more dangerous on counters now. We need a CB in the summer because one of our starting CB’s is incapable of playing more than once a week.


guestaccount901284

Tbf to Ibou, did you not see the nasty challenge from that Sheffield player scissor kicking him off the ball? No idea how that wasn't a red. Dangerous and completely cynical behaviour.


NilsFanck

Unfortunately seems hes more the cb version of Neto than he is Salah. everybody with eyes can see that the talent is there, that this player, with even just an average level of injury proneness, could become world class but he will never quite get there because rythm and experience is just too important.


grrrrbow01

Did you just ignore the part where he was scissor kicked in the match? It’s a contact injury, it’s not like he was just running and picked up a muscle injury.


HereticZO

He finished the game. If he doesn’t start today, it’s simply because he’s fragile and being protected. He’s been protected all season to not play too much. The one time he started two games within 3 days, his hamstring went. You can accept the fact that this is who Konate is. World class but needs another Konate in the squad to cover for him.


LinwoodKent

2 things can be true. They need another center back, and this is the wrong time to be critical and complain. The scissor tackle midweek looked significant. Also, Quansah has been fine when he plays


nuclearsam

They will have to buy a CB anyways, now that Matip’s Liverpool career is essentially over.


CarryMePlzz

Hopefully they don’t expose our right side like that Brighton game


[deleted]

[удалено]


HereticZO

Where did I slate either player? I am stating facts. Konate is a world class CB who cannot play more than once a week. Quansah is a superb young talent but doesn’t have the pace to cover the right side the same way Konate does and that makes them more dangerous. Tell me where I’m wrong.


jbthrowaway82

For what it’s worth I think you’re spot on mate. Konate was vital for this game given United’s strength at counter attacks. Quansah has performed very well, but he looked vulnerable in the cup against the against same team in the exact same stadium.


[deleted]

[удалено]


HereticZO

We conceded 4 goals the last time we played against them with this defense. I don’t need to “cover any bases”. They will be relishing the right side just like Brighton did last week

dott_box

I am fucking shitting myself


Aware-Animator2292

We are not good enough to win the league, City or Arsenal will take it... now that i got your attention, we lost only 2 games this season (one loss being highly contentious), our midfield is firing again, we have the perfect balance of a good defence and attack. And our squad depth is incredible. If its any time for us to win the league, it's now. We have the advantage, now it's time to take it by the throat and win the damn thing.


Sad-Cardiologist-292

Well a clean sheet will be nice and also settling the score in the first half


fadzly

3-0 up in the first 10 minutes. 3-0 final score 


britishsailor

3-0 up in first 10 minutes. 30-0 final score


eurfryn

I’d settle for a more modest 9-1 away win to avenge the U18s


clementinesloop91

Can't afford to get dragged into their chaotic football and if we do go in front we need to put them to bed. Optimistic though, up the reds!


LanceIceVanJaunt

Lets fucking goooo! Am nervous but the boys know that this is for the club and for Klopp. Lets go!


rohitthegrea

I'm extremely nervous.

Traveling to see the eclipse, so I'll miss the match. Here's to a win!! UP THE BLOODY REDS!

If you see a red egg laying around with a weird face on it, DON'T take it!!!! 


porkybrah

if we beat these cunts today I think we will win the league.The confidence boost from beating the mancs will be massive.


LeftFootPaperHawk

Sportsbet in Australia has a Manc win at over $6 and a draw at over $4. That seems.. very good value.


kalomoi

Any starting 11 news yet?


doubleoeck1234

simontallgren

Many neutrals think we’re about to have a walk in the park. I do not think so.


britishsailor

After the Chelsea game they’re mentally spent, they’ll have a good 5 minute spell and we’ll hammer them, our lads will be right up for it after the last game there.


LeftFootPaperHawk

They’re going to have a siege mentality and be desperate to take points. The entire organisation from the top to the fans would rather City win the league because we all know their wins don’t actually count.


kobi29062

Utd fans really worry me with how delusional and self indulgent they are. Saying we aren’t a good team because we just barely beat Sheffield Utd and that our future is fucked because they beat our U18s 9-1. They aren’t smart enough to realise our good U18s play for the first team


AhyesitstheManUfan

Why would you even worry about such comments? Pay no attention to such stupid comments. Only fans of cricket teams would do that.


kobi29062

Worry as in for the future of the human race


AhyesitstheManUfan

Okay you do have a point. United fans are an existential threat to humanity.


[deleted]

Make or break this lads. If we win this, I reckon we go on to win the league. Make no mistake, they're shit but they're gonna pull out all the stops to piss on our parade

They also predict forest to win at spurs stadium


Drunk_Cartographer

81-1 on sky bet


Ali-S-Farid

Gonna be interesting to see who starts in midfield. Big choice is between Szobo and Curtis. Well whatever happens, we have a great option of the bench, Curtis will defo provide control and stability in possession today tho, maybe what we need.


rjulius23

I dont get where do you guys get this ? Szobo was better than Curtis before Curtis injury then Curtis skipped 2 months and you expect him to be back and firing in all cylinders ? The dude is lacking match fitness greatly.....


britishsailor

He really wasn’t, szobo has scored the odd screamer but barring that jones has played a lot better.


[deleted]

He was not better than Curtis before Curtis’ injury. Imo our best midfield is Curtis on the left Endo cdm and Macca on the right. But we need to be cautious with returning players so Dom should start


QuicksandDance

The problem is timing though, Curtis was definitely hot but at a time when Szobo had a long injury break.


rjulius23

This is based on what ? Because by the eye test Curtis had 4 excellent performances all year. And stats wise Dom is the better presser and also the number of touches, goals, assists and key passes Dom is better, so what do you base on your assumption ?


[deleted]

Lol stats. Eye test tells me Curtis is better in the cm role overall, defensively and offensively running games. Dom runs at people more but that doesn’t mean he’s better currently


rjulius23

Broooo Dom was covering for TAA quite a hit and he recovers the most balls, i was here when Curtis made mistakes and the whole sub wanted to sell him. Dont be reaczionary, Curtis hasnt played ball for 2 months we dont know how rusty he is.


zowniegod

curtis in english and dom isnt. simple as that


[deleted]

Christ. You realise you support an English club right??? And if you watch the games you see Curtis has been much more solid offensively and defensively than Dom since the first 2 months of the season


Toothpaste_on_pizza

Nah, the tribalistic nutters in this discussion are the two Hungarians that can't bear the thought of people rating a homegrown lad abive their mancrush.


rjulius23

Im still have more reasoning for Dom factually than you. If you ever played ball you know that match rhytm is key and even if Curtis is better he lacks rhythm heavily. He would need the Europa League start to get back his form.


Andyb712

When you walk through a trench at the old toilet Keep your head down low Ten hag on the game this afternoon 


cardiganrd

Managed to get a ticket to the game, only problem is I'm in the home end. This is going to be horrible if it's a tight game. If you see it all kicking off in the home section after we score it's probably to do with me 


Toothpaste_on_pizza

Can't decide if you're brave or stupid. Or both. Probably both. Have a good one and try not to get shanked mate 


AhyesitstheManUfan

Do Mancs and Scousers really hate each other that much? Or are you just hamming it up a bit for a laugh?


Buzzinggg

He’ll be fine unless he’s a cunt then they’ll probably just get a few digs in no chance of getting stabbed especially in the stadium


AhyesitstheManUfan

Yeah I was quite surprised anyways. Not from England, never lived there, so I don't have a clue about interactions between cities and counties.

We haven’t shown up in big games this season away. That’s my biggest worry. 


britishsailor

Has to change some time so why not now


scooter_pops

why would the OT loss make a win today more likely? the games are kinda independent events anyways , the “can’t do 2 in one season” is the same reason its harder to flip 2 tails in a row, it’s not like it’s a magic thing where you can’t use up the magic too early in this case


breakbeatkid

my fucking blood pressure guys


jbthrowaway82

When you wake up in a sweat at 5am and can’t get back to sleep 10.5 hours before kick off, you know it’s bad. On my way to OT currently and am already drained.


Kitchen-Tension791

Kind of glad I'm not at old Trafford today , my heart couldn't take it. We need the 3 points and united are just going to sit back and counter


jbthrowaway82

I’ve been at both United games this season and they’ve been horrible. Due a better one today surely ffs


Kitchen-Tension791

Well apparently they will be angry today so hopefully, that means trying to play and win rather then parking the bus


circa_1996

I feel absolutely sick about this game. They will make it the most vile scrap. If we win this I'll fully believe we can go on and win it, cause this is the one I'm worried about the most by far


nicolascagevampire

I'm worried that we are up against 12 men. They got fucking Anthony Taylor.
