New word for "diving" is "savvy"

If this was Mane or Salah talking they would have been crucified by the press and pundits.
Anyways I just checked, Paul Tierney is the ref for Sunday's match and apparently he has previously awarded United 5 pens recently and 0 pens for us. Be prepared for more "savviness" from Rashford, Fernandes, Pogba & co tomorrow

Have to be careful of Pogbra too, he wins penalties by pushing the ball past a defender, run straight into him and collapse to the ground as though the defender obstruct his path, and the blind referee would point to the spot.

for this game against MU, the key lies in our back line. if Matip is fit then he will partner Fabinho. if Matip is unfit, most likely Henderson will partner Fabinho as CB pairing. TAA and AR on right and left. we will misss Hendo in midfield.

midfield will most likely Thiago, Gini, Milner or Shaq or Ox as backup

up front still our thressome Salah, Firmino and Mane with Minamino as backup

Think United's game plan will to be arrive at Anfield three points ahead and at least leave still three points ahead.

Has Ole got the bottle to go head on with us leaving his back four exposed, I dont think so. He will park one or two buses and hope to hit us on the break.

The main man for United is Bruno. Stick Gini on him, man mark him out of the game and also give Pogba a few hard tackles and he will fade out of the game.

We also should not play a high line because leaving acres of space behind our back four they have players who can break and catch us. We need to play a bit deeper than normal with Hendo protecting our centre backs.

When we have the ball they will sit back and the way through United is through the middle. Maguire is slow and if we cause problems there it will also prevent the United full backs going forward because they will be tucking in to protect their two centre backs.

With them sitting back and us playing a bit deeper than normal it will allow Thiago the space in the middle to get his passing game going. His passing reduces the need to go from siide to side looking for and opening all the time.

He is always looking for the opening, the through or diagonal ball most of the time and we must be ready to latch on to them. If Bobby plays he must play as an out and out centre forward looking to get on the end of a Thiago pass and also keep their two centre backs under pressure.

In Thiago we have a quick thinking player and because of his passing he can hurt United no matter where he is on the field. We look much better going forward with him in the team and he must start from the kick off. If not we will find it hard. Klopp's team selection today is a massive factor.

In the past two seasons we have had some struggles against lower opposition but when we came up against the usual top six teams we have always performed when it mattered. Well it matters today and I think we will perform again.

The only thing I am not looking forward to is Martin Tyler's impartial match commentary. He makes my blood boil.

Matip has a good chance of playing, only worry is he may not be 100% ready... Wouldn't mind Shaq starting instead of Salah n Salah to come in later if things not working out!

We will win this game easily if our front three just start taking their chances. We had so many chances to win the last 3 games but Salah and Mane have been very wasteful during the crucial moments. In times like this, I really miss Joto. If he is fit, the front three knows they will be dropped if they do not perform.

All said, I am going for a 3-0 win. Regardless of result, I know I will never stop supporting Liverpool, unlike plastic fans who keep their Man U jerseys when results are poor.
