Liverpool vs Manchester United: Combined XI
By Ethan Lowe
RB- Nathaniel Clyne
Another Liverpool player to complete the defence in the form of Nathaniel Clyne. Probably the best Liverpool defender so far this season, Clyne has been a bright spark when things have looked rather dark. Just like fellow full-back Alberto Moreno, Clyne’s pace allows him to make outstanding offensive runs forwars, while preventing expose at the back.
A player who seemingly never tires, he works hard for the full 90 minutes and isn’t afraid to commit to important slide tackles. This position was a hard one to decide, due to how well Matteo Darmian has looked since his arrival at United. I, personally, believe that recently Darmian has looked the better passer and crosser when compared to Clyne, however Clyne’s pace and attacking movement allows him to take the spot as right back of this combined XI.
