Fans react to Mark Goldbridge’s Liverpool-Man United combined XI
Liverpool head to Manchester United on Sunday afternoon, in one of the biggest Premier League fixtures of any season.
The two bitter rivals will do battle at Old Trafford, with the Reds favourites to make it nine wins out of nine in the league.
Numerous combined XIs have been produced this week, causing plenty of debate among the two sets of supporters.
Infamous United fan Mark Goldbridge has done his, somehow including David De Gea and Aaron Wan-Bissaka ahead of Alisson and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
These fans couldn’t believe what they were seeing, sharing their thoughts on Twitter.
No way do maguire wan bissaka or de gea get in

There’s no way Wan-Bissaka is better than Trent, absolutely no way. Trent is a 20 year old who is literally controlling and deciding games as a full back. He’s generational

Read Liverpool Verdict
Wan-Bissaka is a big prospect, but he is currently nowhere near Alexander-Arnold’s level.
The Liverpool star has blossomed into Europe’s most influential attacking right-back, and while he is not as strong defensively, he can still hold his own in that area.
Meanwhile, Alisson has performed at a far higher level than De Gea over the past 12 months, cementing his place as possibly the best goalkeeper in the world.
The pair’s inclusion feels more like desperation than anything – a way of trying to find room for more United players.
