"Giorgi Mamardashvili The Georgian shot stopper made his Premier League debut at Stamford Bridge before the international break, being forced into some impressive saves against a threatening Chelsea attack. A spell on the sidelines for Alisson means that Mamardashvili will remain as Liverpool's No. 1 for another few weeks. Milos Kerkez Having endured an indifferent start to life on Merseyside, Milos Kerkez is likely to be trusted with the left-back role against Manchester United."
"Liverpool's captain will hope that his defensive record over the international break translates onto the pitch at Anfield, upon keeping two clean sheets for the Netherlands. The onus will likely fall on the more experienced members of Liverpool's squad, such as van Dijk, to lift them out of this run of underwhelming performances. The Reds' current longest serving player looks set for his first league start this season, with Ibrahima Konate still a doubt after his thigh injury he picked up against Chelsea."
After three consecutive defeats for the first time in Arne Slot's managerial career, Liverpool will seek to reverse their fortunes against Manchester United on Sunday. Giorgi Mamardashvili will continue as No. 1 while Alisson recovers, after a Premier League debut that featured impressive saves at Stamford Bridge. Milos Kerkez is likely to occupy left-back despite an inconsistent start and spells playing left centre-back. Virgil van Dijk’s recent international clean sheets place responsibility on experienced squad members to steady the side. Joe Gomez looks set for a league start with Ibrahima Konaté doubtful after a thigh injury and Giovanni Leoni sidelined by an ACL tear.
