Brendan Rodgers looks ahead to Liverpool's visit to Manchester United on Sunday (14 December).

Script:

SOUNDBITE: Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool manager
"Well it's a very important game, but it always is. It's a massive game on the fixture list in this country and obviously for various reasons it's a game that we go into and we want to do well in. We had an outstanding performance and result last season and if we can replicate that, we would be very happy."

SOUNDBITE: Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool manager
"I think they know what's expected (of them). It's Liverpool football club. It's one of the biggest clubs in the world so you've got to perform. I think the key thing for us is consistently performing, without the fear and with confidence and having that ability to express themselves and that's something that hasn't been apparent so much this season for whatever reason. But, you always look at the next game as the start point and for me, we showed great courage in that second half against Basel, down to ten men with half an hour to go and it looked like towards the end that we were going to get something and get the qualification. But, you can really draw on the positives from that. I know what I'm working with in terms of the players. A brilliant group and as I said, we just need to find a way to play without the fear again and with that confidence and hopefully then with that, we'll get consistent results."
