Liverpool lineup against Man United today with the Reds having not won in their past five league games, failing to score in four of them. The two sides faced off last week and the game ended a bore draw. Jürgen Klopp will be hoping to turn things around today. Twitter has reacted to the confirmed Liverpool lineup to face Man United:
Goalkeeper: Alisson
The Brazilian holds his place in the side despite his game losing error in midweek.
Right back: Trent Alexander-Arnold
The Scouser keeps his place in the side denying Neco Williams a huge opportunity.
Centre back: Rhys Williams
The other Williams also starts with Joel Matip rested ahead of a trip to Spurs in midweek.
Centre back: Fabinho
Fabby is one of the best defenders in world football, he’ll be keen to redeem himself after foolishly letting Ashley Barnes in at the wrong time on Thursday.
Left back: Andy Robertson
The Scotland captain starts with Kostas Tsimikas denied a rare start, hopefully Robbo justifies the decision.
Centre midfield: Thiago
The Spaniard is given a start in the cup despite the congested fixture list. Please don’t get injured.
Centre midfield: James Milner
The veteran midfielder returns to the starting lineup, his experience will be invaluable today.
Centre midfield: Gini Wijnaldum
The Dutchman doesn’t need a rest does he? Just a dynamo.
Right wing: Mo Salah
The Egyptian King returns to the starting lineup, let’s hope it’s his old self in the team today.
Left wing: Curtis Jones
The Scouser is given a start in the same competition which launched his name last year.
Striker: Roberto Firmino
Bobby has been missing some serious chances in recent weeks. Please just put one away Bobby.
