The Countdown Part 3


Tomorrow 7.45 p.m.

It's the biggest derby in the world, Liverpool against arch nemesis Manchester United.

Past record in the last 4 seasons read like this- 7 wins and a draw....to MU of course.
On current form, Liverpool will start as the underdog...ahh who cares about the form book. It will be do or die match, no less.
Game like this so early in the season, wonder what effect will rub off for both teams. Massive I guess.

No news yet on the fitness of star duo, Gerrard and Torres. I'd like to see Riera on the left side.
Touted as classical winger who gets to byline to deliver pinpoint crosses, he'll be exciting to watch. Well....if all said about him are true of course...if not we could be looking at another Mark Gonzalez, the Chilean who failed to impress in his short stay at Anfield.
Hope, Riera is not just hot air.

Although the record is bad, truth is Liverpool dominated many games but failed to stamp a goal despite superior possession. In the end, it was MU who prevailed times and again.

Our day tomorrow?
