Shoot!’s Manchester United-Liverpool combined XI

Centre-back: Eric Bailly (Manchester United)

United’s best defender overall, Eric Bailly, is our first centre-half selected in our combined XI.

The 23-year-old has recently made his return from an ankle injury, featuring against Chelsea in United’s 2-1 win at Old Trafford, but was left on the bench during Monday’s comeback at Crystal Palace.

Ivory Coast international Bailly has netted one goal in 12 outings overall this campaign.
