Concerned Ferguson admits fear for players

Alex Ferguson fears the emotion of Manchester United’s visit to Liverpool tomorrow could have a negative effect on his players.

The game will be the first for Liverpool at Anfield since the damning findings on the Hillsborough tragedy were announced by an independent panel last week. Liverpool intend to mark the match with a number of significant gestures, including the formation a mosaic across three sides of the stadium.

Ferguson has already appealed for calm from United fans in what is certain to be a tense atmosphere.
