Liverpool boss Arne Slot believes struggling Manchester United are better than their place in the Premier League standings suggests, and said he does not plan to rest any players when the two teams clash at Anfield.
Liverpool top the table with 45 points and with a game in hand over the other title contenders. They are six points ahead of second-placed Arsenal, while United, with five losses in their last six league games, are languishing 14th with 22 points.
While United are no longer the force they were during the Alex Ferguson era, Slot was taken aback when asked if he plans to rest any of his key players for the match on Sunday.
“No. Of course not,” Slot said. “For me, they have much better players than maybe the league table shows at the moment. It might take a while for (manager) Ruben Amorim to bring this out of the players but they are much better than the league table shows.”
