I agree, a goal from anyone will do - just gotta beat the manc scum, I find these games difficult to watch as I can't stand losing to the dirty manc b*st$rds!

Think the team will be Pepe, Finnan, Carra, Sami & Riise, Gerrard on the right, Momo & Xabi in the middle, Aurelio on the left, Crouch & Bellamy up front.

Crouchy caused them problems in the cup tie last year and I take him to score the winner tomorrow.

C'mon - let's stuff it up em! :glare:

Obviously a UTD fan because they are top of the league for a while!!

No real fan of any team would say that!!

I've been a Utd fan for as long as, thanks.

No fan of any team would say what? Have an opinion that their team is going to lose? If I was just a Utd fan while they are doing well I would surely think they are goign to win?

The question being asked ahead of Liverpool's trip to Old Trafford this weekend is whether Rafa Benitez's side could still win the Premiership if they lose. I know that Sir Alex Ferguson has said that it is far too early to rule Liverpool out of the title race whatever the result on Sunday, but I disagree. I just don't think Liverpool are good enough to win the title.

I have been anything but impressed with Liverpool side this season and they are certainly not playing like title contenders. They are already eight points behind both Manchester United and Chelsea and I am struggling to believe that they can make up that deficit, let alone a gap of eleven if they are defeated this weekend.

Even the most die-hard Liverpool fan would surely admit that a loss at Old Trafford would signal the end of their title dream for another season.

A month ago, Arsenal travelled to Old Trafford in very similar circumstances. But the difference is that the Gunners were actually playing well at that time; Liverpool are not. Their away form has been dreadful and even after winning in the Champions League on Wednesday night against Bordeaux their confidence will be low. One goal in four Premiership fixtures away from Anfield tells its own story.

Rafa Benitez has pursued a policy of rotation since the turn of the year and while he says that this is a strategy he has used throughout his career, I don't think it is suitable for the English Premiership. To win the league in this country a team requires stability and continuity. Liverpool don't have that.

I think even Jose Mourinho has learnt that rotation can be self-destructive. While both the Chelsea manager and Sir Alex Ferguson tend to make the odd change to their line-up, the basis of team remains essentially the same. Benitez's mistake has been to make too many changes, too often.

Does he even know what his best eleven is? It's very difficult to be sure. I know that I would play Steven Gerrard in the middle of the park but Rafa remains reluctant to break up the partnership of Xabi Alonso and Mohamed Sissoko.

As a result, Gerrard has played in four different positions this season. Given that he is the best player in the team and we've only just reached the middle of October, I find that an astonishing state of affairs.

It certainly can't have helped Liverpool.

has anyone else noticed that kash mountains signature is not actually a signature, and he must have to paste the http for his pictures every time he posts

Pee wee has got a point about Gerrard not playing in the middle, however for some games I prefer having Gerrard on the right and 2 more defensively minded midfielders like Xabi & Momo in the middle. Defo Stevie shouldplay more games in the middle of the park but not tomorrow.

If we needed gerrard in the centre at any game this would be the game. We canot afford to drop 2 points or even worse all 3 tommorow and Wherever gerrard plays he bosses the position and i think its much more important to boss the middle than the right.

I've not been looking forward to this fixture all week, given the current form. But I was thinkin about our midfield against theirs, and I think this one's in the bag lads - mark my words.
