Liverpool look to kick-start their Premier League season at bitter rivals Manchester United this evening.
The Reds have stuttered out of the blocks, dropping points against Fulham, before Darwin Nunez’s red card scuppered hopes of a comeback victory over Crystal Palace, eventually settling for a draw thanks to Luis Diaz’s stunning strike.
Erik ten Hag will have to decide whether to persevere with his preferred philosophy or shelve plans for now after an alarming defeat to Brentford, leaving United bottom of the table for the first time in 30 years.
The Red Devils remain active in the transfer market, but progress has been slow.
