GK) David de Gea – Manchester United
The young Spaniard is currently at a higher level than Simon Mignolet.
DR) Phil Jones – Manchester United
Glen Johnson is declining, and Jones can do a solid job in this position, although in truth, neither sides are blessed with top right-backs.
DC) Dejan Lovren – Liverpool
The £20m Croat is composed in possession, and is probably the best centre-back at either club at this moment in time.
DC) Mamadou Sakho – Liverpool
Sakho starts for France, and could keep Martin Skrtel out of the Liverpool side now that the Slovakian is injured. Due to his power and aerial presence, we rate Sakho above Jonny Evans, Chris Smalling and Marcos Rojo.
DL) Luke Shaw – Manchester United
The world’s most expensive ever left-back makes the side, although new Liverpool signing Alberto Moreno has started well.
MC) Steven Gerrard – Liverpool
Gerrard will provide the platform in this midfield, as he provides the deep-lying playmaker role United badly lack right now.
MC) Jordan Henderson – Liverpool
Henderson’s pressing and energy is phenomenal, and he’s a guaranteed starter for both the Reds and England. United signing Ander Herrera has yet to prove himself.
AMR) Raheem Sterling – Liverpool
Sterling is the best teenager in world football right now. Ludicrously quick, he can play on either flank or in the no.10 role, but to accommodate Wayne Rooney, we’re deploying him on the right in this side.
AML) Angel di Maria – Manchester United
The most expensive player ever signed by a Premier League club, di Maria can dribble, and assisted more goals than any other player in Europe for Real Madrid last term.
AMC) Wayne Rooney – Manchester United
The United and England captain is best in a slightly withdrawn role behind a central striker. From here he can pull the strings, create chances, and shoot on goal himself.
FC) Radamel Falcao – Manchester United
Unarguably one of the world’s very best strikers, the new Colombian loan signing keeps the brilliant Robin van Persie, and the outstanding Daniel Sturridge out of this side!
