On Sunday afternoon, Manchester United will meet Liverpool in the Premier League at Anfield. This will be a big game for United, who are out of form, lack drive, determination, and the capacity to win, and after a 7-0 thumping in this fixture last season, this visit will be intimidating.

United exited the UEFA Champions League this week, losing 1-0 to Bayern Munich, while FC Copenhagen defeated Galatasaray 1-0, leaving United at the bottom of the group and unable to qualify for the UEFA Europa League. United requires immediate rejuvenation.

This season has carried over nothing from the previous one, and it appears that the players have downed tools for the management, which may or may not be the case. It just appears to be that way. These ‘professionals’ must discover something quickly or face serious problems in the coming weeks.

Manchester United’s predicted starting lineup is 4-2-3-1.

Onana;

Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Evans, Shaw;

McTominay, Amrabat;

Antony, Rashford, Garnacho;

Hojlund

Substitutes: Bayindir; Lindelof, Dalot; van de Beek, Mainoo, Gore, Hannibal; Pellistri, Hugill
