Liverpool is actually not very far from Manchester, but the Liverpool team still went to Manchester one day early. From this, it can be seen that the Liverpool team attaches great importance to this game.
When the Liverpool team came to Manchester, they were naturally warmly "welcome" by Manchester United fans. Almost all the Manchester United fans blocked the road leading to the hotel where the Liverpool team was staying. It only took about forty minutes to get there.
But this time, the Liverpool team walked for an hour and forty minutes.
The fans of Manchester United are so passionate that Liverpool can't stand it anymore. The players of Liverpool and the staff of the club are very angry. These damn guys actually make these off-the-table tricks with them, which makes them feel sad.
Very uncomfortable.
When the Liverpool team arrived at their hotel, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, but it was more than an hour later than they expected. They originally wanted to go to the Old Trafford Stadium to play on the field today, but now it seems that it is
There was no time and Benitez had to cancel the plan.
After arriving at the hotel and waiting for the Liverpool players to pack up and have dinner, it was already very late and the Liverpool players went straight to sleep.
The next day came quickly. In the early morning, Liverpool's head coach Benitez complained to the media reporters about the damn practices of Manchester United fans. They strongly condemned Manchester United's use of these off-the-table tricks. This was simply too shameless.
Already.
The media also reported these issues vigorously, which indeed put some public pressure on Manchester United. However, Manchester United did not take these to heart. Compared with the pressure of public opinion and the victory after the game, it is nothing.
Moreover, what the Manchester United fans did was not dictated by the Manchester United team, and they did not feel any regret in their hearts, because it had nothing to do with them, so why should they "pay the bill".
The actions of the Manchester United fans did create a lot of trouble for the Liverpool team. However, this did not affect the Liverpool team's preparations. The Liverpool players were still in good condition the next day and they were not affected by the Manchester United team.
The influence of fans.
There are still a lot of Liverpool fans coming to Manchester on this day. They want to come to the scene to cheer for the Liverpool team. They also know that this game is very important for Manchester United and they must win this game.
On this day, the Old Trafford Stadium was full of people. Manchester United fans were wearing red jerseys and cheering for Manchester United in the stadium. In this game, Manchester United people very much hope to win, which is very important for their competition.
Crowns are very helpful.
Moreover, Manchester United cannot afford to lose this game. If Manchester United loses this game, then Manchester United will be five points behind Liverpool. This is a huge point difference. This shows that they are almost equal to Liverpool this season.
The league championship is out of reach.
Therefore, Manchester United absolutely cannot afford to lose in this game, and Manchester United fans really don’t want that team to lose.
If Liverpool loses this game, they will be at most one point behind Manchester United. With seven rounds to go, Liverpool still has a chance to get back the points.
However, the Liverpool people do not want to lose. They certainly hope to widen the point gap with Manchester United at this time, so that they will have more guarantees in their fight for the league championship.
The Liverpool team was well prepared for this game. On that day, they arrived at the stadium before the Manchester United team. Naturally, they were warmly "welcome" by the Manchester United fans. This made the Liverpool fans very unhappy. They were fighting with Manchester United at that time.
The team's fans started shouting at each other.
If there were not security personnel and police present at the scene, fans from both sides would have just started fighting. The atmosphere was simply too heated.
The Manchester United team's bus arrived more than ten minutes later than the Liverpool team. Their arrival naturally attracted the warm welcome of countless Manchester United fans. This welcome was different from the "welcome" of the Liverpool team. Manchester United enjoyed the warm welcome of countless fans.
Cheering, he walked into the stadium.
But after coming to the locker room, Manchester United's head coach Alex Ferguson was very serious. No matter what happened before the game, at this time, he still attached great importance to Liverpool. Liverpool's strength was indeed very strong.
Players from both sides were warming up in the stadium. At this time, fans from both sides began to cheer for the players from both sides. The scene was very lively.
Soon the players from both sides ended their warm-up and walked back to the locker room to listen to the coach's final tactical arrangements.

To be in the starting lineup, he's injured and he's in Liverpool."
