Kagawa to excel!

IMO I think he did well tonight but lacked more support from our central midfielders. Carrick's was GREAT but I think Kagawa is more lively with a player like Cleverly in central midfield who can burst forward with the ball. Carrick is too slow most of the times. Not saying I don't like Carrick's style of play.

Nah...our game against Galatasary

Oh, yeah it was okay, United could of played better I thought and scored more goals (Nani had a shocking game).

But I suppose Galatasary played well too.

I couldn't agree more. I think it's about time we get rid of Nani. He's not helping the team at all!

When Ashley Young gets back fit, I don't think Nani will be getting in the team anymore.

But yeah, he'll probably leave in Jan or next season.

Yeah, I think he will be leaving in January. But, I think we need another replacement for him because Ashley Young is too injury prone. Maybe Fergie could be using Buttner on the left wing.

MATCH FACTS

Head-to-head

• This is the 186th meeting between the two most successful clubs in English league history. United lead Liverpool by 72 wins to 62, with 51 draws.
• The two clubs first met in April 1894, when Liverpool won 2-0 in a promotion/relegation play-off to replace their vanquished opponents in the top flight.
• Liverpool are unbeaten in their last five league and cup matches against Manchester United at Anfield (W4, D1).
• The 1-1 Premier League draw last October ended a run of three straight away defeats for United in this fixture, which they last won in December 2007 when Carlos Tevez scored the only goal.
• There have been four red cards in the last five Premier League meetings at Anfield - three for Manchester United, one for Liverpool.

Liverpool

• Liverpool have failed to win any of their first four league matches in a season for the first time in 101 years. They were winless in their first five fixtures in the 1911-12 season, registering two draws and three defeats.
• Their longest run without victory from the start of a season is nine matches, set in 1894-95 - their inaugural top-flight campaign.
• The Reds have only won one of their last seven home matches in the Premier League, and earned just 10 points out of the last possible 33 at Anfield (W2, D4, L5).
• Their tally of 20 points from 23 league matches in 2012 is the second worst in the top flight (Aston Villa had earned 19 points prior to this weekend).
• Liverpool had registered an unsurpassed 75 shots in the Premier League this season prior to this weekend's fixtures.
• Luis Suarez has seven goals in his last 11 Premier League games. He has had 13 shots off target this season, more than any other Premier League player.

Manchester United

• Sir Alex Ferguson's side have suffered three 1-0 defeats in their last five league away matches dating back to April.
• However, they have won 17 of their 23 league matches in 2012, earning an unrivalled 53 points.
• United have been awarded a league-high 13 penalties since the start of last season.
• The Red Devils have already recovered twice as many points from losing positions (six) than they did last season.
• Robin van Persie has scored four goals in his last five league matches against Liverpool.
