Liverpool midfielder Joe Allen has insisted that he and his teammates are relishing this Sunday's battle against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
The Reds have struggled to match last season's scintillating form, when they secured a 3-0 victory in this fixture with David Moyes as United manager.
This time around, Liverpool sit seven points below third-placed United in the Premier League table.
"Last season it was a great feeling to go to Old Trafford and get the three points and all of the players want that feeling again," Allen told the club's official website.
"When you are a kid, these are the kind of games you can't wait to watch and these are the games that inspire all of the players in the dressing room as it's great to be involved in. So we can't wait for it. Both sets of fans can't wait for the kick-off either."
Liverpool head to Old Trafford on the back of a disappointing Champions League exit following Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Basel at Anfield.
