Liverpool face United on Saturday at Anfield. The Reds are coming off wins against Wolves and Everton and Downing is hoping that the international break will not have hampered their recent good form.
“It’s a tough game but we’ll look forward to it and if we keep playing the way we are then we’ve got a chance of beating anyone,” said Downing.
“If we beat Manchester United we’ll say the break did us good.
“If we don’t people will point the finger and say the break killed us a bit.”
