I'm hoping both Martial and Mikhitarian start on Sunday. I think these two have been very good the past month, and the pace they possess and direct running will cause Liverpool problems. Redmond gave Milner the runaround on Wednesday and I'd like to see these two going at the fullbacks. When they're tire in the second half bring Rashford on to run them ragged. Henderson is a big player for them. If he's missing he's a big loss. Our midfield trio pick themselves.
Without mane in the team it eliminates a lot of threat of pace and should allow our defence to play a lot higher up the pitch than they would if mane was playing. You can't afford to leave space behind with his pace but firming, Coutinho and lallana don't carry that threat. I think it will be a tight game. I think a score draw. But if we turn up and have a few big performances then we should have enough. When I look at their strongest 11, it's probably only Mane and Coutinho I would put in our side

I will be gutted if we don't win. Henderson is a big loss for them, as is Mane. We should have won at Anfield and we are playing way better now. Firmino is their danger player.
I just hope we don't see Fellaini, Lingard, Rooney in the starting line up. All three could have impact from the bench, but for me our first 11 picks itself, maybe there is a choice between Darmian and Blind at left back. Rash should be saved as an impact sub. Please Jose no surprises. Take them on with our best team and we should win by 1 or 2.

it depends how jose sets up he might try to keep it tight

Surely if Couts and Mane would get into your team and Mane is away then United should win easily, yet you call a score draw. Bit of a weird statement that Stand United. 😉

Klopp gets the best out of the sum of the parts irish rover. Basically sums what stand says.
I'd have coutinho, not mane.
