FA Cup – Manchester United Vs Liverpool – Dream11 Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
Ever since he’s returned to the club, Dean Henderson has failed to get any substantial chances. However, he’s featured in the FA Cup and made the most of his sojourn with astute showings.
Defenders
Liverpool have clearly lost their way as a backline but that does little to deter us from opting for a trio from the club. The team takes on a side least interested in attacking against higher placed sides.
They managed to keep a cleansheet the last time these two met and one could easily be on the cards for Liverpool today as well. It will see the trivalent of Fabinho, Andre Robertson and Joel Matip be inducted in our unit.
The cleansheet and assist for him in the third round sees us opt for Alex Telles from the opposition.
Midfielders
Although he has only the one goal against the top six, the 11 goals and 8 assists for Bruno Fernandes see him retain his place in our side. Scott McTominay scored for the side in the foregone tie to see him make his way into our team as well.
Sadio Mane played earlier in the week but given the stature of this encounter, we envision Klopp sticking with the six goal man. Curtis Jones who assisted in the bygone round and James Milner will complete the three man unit from the visiting side.
Strikers
Our set of picks are wrapped up with Mohamed Salah from Liverpool, the side’s leading scorer.
