The team news is in for Manchester United’s match against Liverpool, and the big news is David De Gea’s return to the starting line-up.

There’s plenty of positivity over De Gea starting, after the Spaniard signed a new contract with the club, and fans have made this clear on Twitter.
DAVID DE GEA 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Still, with all the optimism over the Spaniard, some fans may have overlooked the team’s lack of attacking options.
Wayne Rooney’s injury left Louis van Gaal with little choice, but Marouane Fellaini’s selection hasn’t been greeted all that warmly.

Good to see @D_DeGea back in the sticks for #MUFC today, but Fellaini starting up top after Rooney injured? Really LVG? Martial?

There’s a big change up top for Liverpool too, with Danny Ings coming in for the suspended Philippe Coutinho, and there are question marks over the former Burnley man.
