Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has been warned that former Brentford winger Bryan Mbeumo could pose his side some issues when Manchester United travels to Anfield this weekend. United has not won at Anfield for nearly 10 years, and is a huge underdog going into Sunday's game, but it arrives at Anfield with three shiny new attackers in tow.



Some critics argue that United should have prioritised signing a new central midfielder over completely overhauling its front three over the summer, but Chris Sutton believes the quality of United's new attacking signings could make them a serious threat on the counter-attack on Sunday. "This is a huge game for Arne Slot's side," Sutton said on BBC Sport.

"Liverpool have issues defensively, and their weakness at full-back might suit United's tactics. "I can see Bryan Mbeumo causing Arne Slot's side all sorts of problems." Despite tipping United to pose an attacking threat and feeling as though the visiting side could emerge from the game with a positive result, Sutton ultimately backed Liverpool to win 2-1.
