Liverpool fans all the say the same thing as David de Gea starts for Manchester United

Liverpool fans have been reacting on social media to the news that David de Gea will start for Manchester United this afternoon.

The stopper was expected to miss out after picking up a groin injury during Spain's draw with Sweden on Tuesday night.

With boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitting the next day in an interview with Sky Sports that he expected his goalkeeper to miss the huge clash at Old Trafford.

Solskjaer then revealed at his pre-match press conference on Friday morning that the injury was not as bad as first feared, although he still expects his number one to miss out.

But De Gea, it now appears, has made a speedy recovery and is now fit enough to start for his side this afternoon - and Reds fans reacting to the news on Twitter have all been saying the same thing.

Manchester United's line-up in full: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Lindelof, Tuanzebe, Young, McTominay, Fred, Pereira, James, Rashford.

On the bench for United: Romero, Rojo, Williams, Garner, Mata, Greenwood, Martial.

Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Mane, Firmino, Origi.

Subs: Adrian, Gomez, Lovren, Milner, Keita, Lallana, Oxlade-Chamberlain.
