James Wilson to start against Liverpool?

Louis van Gaal will reportedly include James Wilson in his Manchester United starting lineup for this afternoon's Premier League clash against rivals Liverpool.

The 19-year-old has made seven appearances in all competitions this season, although six of those have been from the bench.

However, according to The People, there is a chance that the young striker will play alongside Robin van Persie at Old Trafford this afternoon, with loanee Radamel Falcao once again confined to the bench.

Wilson scored twice on his senior United debut against Hull City in May, but has yet to find the net since then.
