5 players that will decide the outcome of Manchester United vs Liverpool

Liverpool v Manchester United - Premier League
The biggest club game is not far away

#1 David De Gea (Manchester United)

Manchester United v Chelsea - Premier League
De Gea has been United's best player this season

81.03 percent! That's not the percentage of people that think David De Gea is the best keeper in the world. That's the save percentage that the Spaniard has managed this season.

It is a phenomenal piece of statistic that rightly reflects his importance to this United side.

His fine save against Crystal Palace kept the score 2-2 at that time while it was his supreme work between the sticks that has kept United in the European tie against Sevilla.

The Spaniard is another United player that steps up his game when the situation demands and tomorrow will definitely be an evening where Mourinho will need De Gea to show his A-game.

He has always fared brilliantly against Liverpool. Be it his unbelievable one-on-one save against Luis Suarez in 2014 or his stunning fingertip stop to deny Philippe Coutinho from long range in the previous season.

As Salah is crucial to Liverpool's cause, De Gea will be for United when both the teams kick off on Saturday.
