Manchester United are set to host Liverpool at Old Trafford this afternoon (3.30pm) in a mouthwatering Premier League clash that will decide who will finish second in the table.

Manchester United are on top of Liverpool in the second position in the Premier League table with only two points.

Liverpool come into the game after a 0-0 draw with Porto in a Champions League clash in the week, while Manchester United made a remarkable comeback to win 3-2 over Crystal Palace in an entertaining match.

United have only lost once at Old Trafford in all competition this season and will be hoping to continue with the good home run with a win over Liverpool.

“Some of the guys with that opinion couldn’t resolve their own problems when they were managers.” He told MUTV

“So they are giving opinions like they have solutions for everything, but it’s not like that.

“But they are in apposition where they can give opinions about everything, sometimes I read but sometimes I don’t, sometimes I listen but sometimes I don’t.” He added
