United travel to Anfield to face arch rivals Liverpool in a
match that could decide Van Gaal’s fate as United manager.
One win in eight league matches, means United’s top four
hopes rests on consistency.
The manner with which United surrendered their lead twice
against Newcastle means Van Gaal must be very meticulous in selecting his team.
I’ll go for the same back four that faced Newcastle, only
that I will swap Ashley Young and Matteo Darmian. For me Darmian is better at
right back while Young should be on the left.
In the midfield, Schneiderlin gets to start. Bastian and
Carrick are out. Naturally Fellaini
comes to mind, but his recent performances have been below par. For me Herrera
pairs Schneiderlin in the middle.
Mata and Lingard for me should start on the wing. Mata had a
great game in the first leg of this fixture and did not start against the
magpies. Lingard’s glorious miss was his major undoing in the last game against
Newcastle. Depay’s recent performances is calling for a start, but I think he
is more impactful from the bench.
Wayne Rooney should start behind Anthony Martial who starts
as the only striker upfront.
That’s my most preferred starting eleven,
What’s yours?
