Bruno Fernandes is the Only Manchester United Player Who Would Make Liverpool’s Current XI, Says Graeme Souness
Graeme Souness believes Bruno Fernandes is the only Manchester United player who would make it into Liverpool’s current starting lineup under Jurgen Klopp.
Liverpool’s Dominance in the Premier League
Liverpool currently sits at the top of the Premier League, one point clear of Arsenal. Their upcoming match against Manchester United at Anfield is highly anticipated.
On the other hand, Manchester United recently suffered a defeat at home to Bayern Munich, resulting in their elimination from the Champions League group stage. They are currently 10 points behind Liverpool in the Premier League.
Souness’ Assessment of the Teams
In his column for MailOnline, Souness expressed his confidence in Liverpool’s victory over Manchester United. He stated that Liverpool has superior players in every position compared to their rivals.
Souness specifically highlighted Bruno Fernandes as a player who would excel in Liverpool’s team due to his exceptional qualities. However, he also mentioned that there is something missing from Fernandes’ game at the moment.
Souness further emphasized Liverpool’s goal-scoring abilities and the impact it has on the team’s performance. He pointed out that Liverpool has multiple players competing to score goals, while Manchester United heavily relies on Scott McTominay, who is primarily a holding midfielder.
According to Souness, goals can mask a team’s shortcomings and Liverpool’s current form is a testament to that. He believes Liverpool, along with Manchester City, are the joint favorites to win the Premier League due to their experienced players and goal-scoring prowess.
On the other hand, Souness criticized Manchester United for their inability to defeat teams in the top half of the table. He highlighted their lack of goal-scoring ability against stronger opponents.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Souness firmly believes that Bruno Fernandes is the only Manchester United player who would make it into Liverpool’s current starting XI. He attributes Liverpool’s success to their superior players in every position and their goal-scoring capabilities. Souness considers Liverpool a dangerous team for any opponent and sees them as strong contenders for the Premier League title.
