Video: Jamie Carragher and Paul Ince pick their combined United-Liverpool XI

In case you've been living in the sewers for the last few weeks, you may be aware that Liverpool and Manchester United are renewing their old rivalry at Anfield this Sunday.

With that in mind, Jamie Carragher and Paul Ince were in Dublin this week, and the pair joined up with the task of picking the ultimate United and Liverpool team they've played with.

It wasn't easy though.

Four of the XI made the cut without argument; Peter Schmeichel, Denis Irwin, Roy Keane and Ryan Giggs, while there was nearly fisticuffs over right back, and picking just two from Paul Scholes, Steven Gerrard and Xabi Alonso in midfield.

In the end, United came out on top in the selection stakes 7-4, but there were plenty of big names left over to fill an impressive enough subs bench, should this hypothetical team ever play a hypothetical match.
