Liverpool vs Manchester United Set to Reach Boiling Point!

This weekends FA cup action will kick off with a huge crunch match of the round as Manchester United travel to Anfield to face great rivals Liverpool. The Victor Chandler review shows some fierce encounters between these two teams over the years, but this tie is surely set to reach boiling point as Patrice Evra returns to Anfield for the first time since being racially abused by Luis Surez who was consequently banned for 9 games.

Tomorrows game could actually see Luis Suarez returning to action since his ban which wold certainly make for a tasty encounter but captain Steven Gerrard does not want the tie against Manchester United to be remembered for the wrong reasons.

Bot clubs are already aware that there will be added hostility to an already fierce rivalry due to the recent events and have both attempted to ease tensions in the build-up to kick-off, while Merseyside Police have stressed they will take firm action against anyone guilty of inappropriate behaviour.

Newspapers will already be dreaming up headlines that they might be able to predict prior to the game, but Steven Gerrard is warning that he doesn’t want these headlines to be negative:

“We all have a responsibility,” said Gerrard. “We all have a responsibility to ensure that this game is remembered for the football.

“Liverpool and Man United is a massive rivalry and, of course, there is going to be stuff in the papers and banter between fans.

“But it would be fantastic if, after the weekend, it is remembered for being a top game and obviously, from our point of view, a Liverpool win.

“We don’t want any front-page stories from this game or any stories besides a football match between two top sides.”

Liverpool will be looking to finish their heroic week off in style after booking their place at Wembley for the Carling Cup final after beating Manchester City over two legs, and Gerrard is eying up a cup double.

“We’ve got to dust ourselves down and get our recovery in because we’ve got a massive game in the FA Cup,” he said.

“We want to do the same in that competition – we want to go a long way.”

It is all set for a huge game tomorrow afternoon, and it surely will not disappoint.
