Last Season Liverpool vs Man. United stats

This Season Starts......
This season Liverpool is still carrying a bit nervous in the game, loosing out their skipper Steven Gerrard in the last seven weeks of campaign since season starts made The Reds played unconvincingly, only looks good and threatening for some of minutes and then loosed their rhythm again. Additional player was brought in the verge of transferring window, Craig Bellamy, Jose Enrique, Sebastian Coates to back the prime player. Much hope put on the high rising Andy Carrol only paid off with one goal till now. Luis Suarez played very well indeed but more from Suarez still to be wait. As he spent little time of his vacation after winning the Copa America.
Manchester United claim top of the table till now, chasing by fellow city rival, Manchester City. They looked very sharp in front with Rooney, Young, Nani and Chicarito who scored many goals already. The retirement of Paul Scholes did not give much of an impact as they found Tom Cleverly in the midfield area. Their scheme of play still composed of dominating in midfield and wing of the pitch. Even though Sir Alex liked to rotate the player in several games. In defensive role Manchester United this season find a perfect player in the named of Phil Jones who was targeted by Liverpool prior to the season begin. Jones performance was extraordinary in the team after Ferdinand and Vidic set to side because of injury.
First Meeting Liverpool vs Manchester United
Kenny Daglish claims the match just as another match in a battle of three point. Maybe king Kenny feels that his squad needs to be endured from to match tension after just winning the derby against Everton in the last premier league match. Andy Carrol get backed up by king Kenny in every Liverpool's match. But this meeting to be important for Steven Gerrard and Liverpool also. Could Stevie G overcome and maintain the good rhythm in a 90 minutes game, which Adams and Lucas still to fail in reaching it in the game.
What will happened in the midfield area are very much to see as both teams supplying very talented players, Liverpool would deliver Gerrard, Downing, Lucas, Adams, Henderson, Kuyt meanwhile United would delivered Cleverly, Anderson, Nani, Park, Young, Fletcher and Carrick. The midfielder fight will be the key of the game. Liverpool surely limited the access of Young or Nani to stab their side of defensive. It will be a very tough task for Enrique and Kelly. Vidic, Ferdinand or Jones will play closely to Suarez action, they surely don't want to ashamed as the last meeting did to them.
One player of each teams to get maximized could be their weakness. Carrol for Liverpool if he cannot emulate such good performance it will be a stoned to Liverpool's played schemed. De Gea for United, in the last match De Gea was not played, some mistakes in catching low strike could serious injured United defense.
