Amad Diallo not seen amongst the Manchester United squad to face Liverpool
According to MEN, Amad Diallo does not appear to have been included in the Manchester United squad to take on Liverpool.
The two arch-rivals meet for the second time in eight days in what is the standout fixture of the FA Cup Fourth round. United were unlucky to not come away with a win at Anfield and will look to right that tonight at Old Trafford.
They will, however, have to do it without Diallo. The youngster who joined the club earlier this month is yet to make his senior debut.
Another player who is missing is versatile attacker Jesse Lingard. The player is linked with a move away this month. Odion Ighalo and Brandon Williams were also not amongst those seen checking into the Lowry Hotel, where the team usually stays before home games.
With much fanfare accompanying his move to the club, Diallo was expected to make his debut for the senior side. It would appear that we have to wait a while to see the youngster in action. (h/t MEN)
Victor Lindelof, who has struggled with injuries of late, was among the players seen. The Swede started at Anfield but missed out midweek against Fulham. It remains to be seen if he will make the cut tonight.
Dean Henderson and Donny van de Beek also look set to play a role in the game. It remains to be seen if the likes of Alex Telles, Daniel James, and Mason Greenwood will also get the nod. (h/t Express)
United made it to the semifinals of the competition last season. Liverpool is in a poor run of form and we should be expected to put them to the sword. Nothing less than a win against Jurgen Klopp’s side will do.
