Man Utd v Liverpool - Super Sunday

Man Utd v Liverpool - Ch 23 - 8:00pm (Live)
Skipper Gary Neville and Rio Ferdinand look certain to return to the Manchester United defence after missing the midweek Champions League victory.
Gabriel Heinze and Ryan Giggs could also feature, but Mikael Silvestre and Park Ji-Sung remain sidelined.
Steve Gerrard will captain Liverpool in his 350th outing for the club.
Gerrard has shaken off the hamstring injury that ruled him out midweek, and Dirk Kuyt, Mohamed Sissoko, Daniel Agger and Robbie Fowler could figure.
LIVERPOOL are an enigma this season. They've dropped only two points at home, but are still to win away. The opening day 1-1 draw at Sheffield United is their only point and only goal from four games on the road this season.

LE TISS PREDICTS
AWAY WIN- I wouldn't normally back against United, especially at home, but I just have a feeling Liverpool will nick this 1-0. We saw it a few years back with Danny Murphy's goals and given they have been through a bit of a dodgy spell and Rafa has a habit of doing it, I think they will find a performance and a result. But they will have to work hard for it and will have to defend for their lives - and go with two in attack! -

Super Sunday Match
LIVERPOOL keeper Jose Reina admitted last night: I fear defeat at Old Trafford will kill our title dream.
The Merseysiders would be a staggering 11 points behind Manchester United should their domestic away-day blues linger on and that with just nine games gone.
But Reina realises another slip against United could be fatal. He said: “We know we are losing ground. Eight points behind Manchester United is too far.
“We have to keep going and fighting for everything. But if they win, there will be 11 points between us and that could be too much. We have to try to win there, though we know it won’t be easy.”
This season they have managed to keep out only Tottenham and Newcastle in the Premiership and Reina has come in for mounting criticism. Yet Benitez has never lost faith in him.
Reina added: “It hasn’t been easy lately but the most important thing is the relationship between the manager and me.
“I believe in myself as I know what I can do and how I can perform. -
pool to steal a draw from behind 2-2

Somebody will get thrashed.

Le tiss = Matthew Le Tissier aka Le God
a legend and could have made it bigger had he moved to a bigger club but chose loyalty over money
I don't think LFC stand much of a chance, I lost faith in Rafa
but i hope they can come out with something

Is Le Tiss amiss?
MATT'S MAIN MAN
STEVEN GERRARD- Surprise, surprise, he will be fit for this one! There is no way he was 'injured' in Bordeaux, because I have never ever known a hamstring clear up in four days, but Liverpool will need him at Old Trafford. I think he is at his best playing on that right-hand side with the freedom to roam, even though he is a terrific central midfielder as well. This is the sort of game he loves and he will drive his side forward - and I just fancy him to boss that midfield as well.

Sir Alex Ferguson insists Liverpool are in a false position ahead of the Barclays Premiership showdown with Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Most pundits believe United will end Liverpool's lingering title hopes if they collect a win which would open up a massive 11-point gap on their fierce local rivals.
Ferguson is not so sure. While he admits Liverpool's form is `a puzzle', the Scot does not feel Rafael Benitez's men will be hanging around mid-table for long.
``Liverpool are a much better side than their position in the Premiership would suggest,'' Ferguson told United Review.
``They have struggled for points but they are in a false position. They have played a series of tough away fixtures at Everton, Chelsea and Bolton and we know we will have to be on our guard.'' -
rumour has it that gerrard is getting frustrated.
he might leave liverpool. -
leave pool then join chelsea

Fulltime
Man Utd 2-0 Liverpool -
both rooney and gerrard had a bad game.
ferdinand's goal made a lot of strikers look ordinary.
i dont understand why liverpool fielded garcia in the first team.
man u totally outplayed liverpool who had only one shot at goal. maybe it is time they change a new manager. -
pool ironically had more shots than united
-
I thought Evra & Fletcher played really well today apart from Scholes and Giggs...
