Hansen delivers Man Utd fans nightmare: Reminds me of Liverpool at end of glory days

Liverpool legend Alan Hansen has warned Manchester United they could go the same way as his old club. Hansen wrote in the Telegraph: "It is too early to say we are now witnessing the end of the empire at Old Trafford, but alarm bells are ringing and there are clear similarities between the United of 2013 and the last Liverpool team to win the title back in 1990.

"I played in that Liverpool team 23 years ago and it was in the bottom three of the eight title-winning sides I played in at Anfield.

"United have more depth and quality than the 1990 Liverpool side, but I would say that the two first-teams are comparable in terms of the issues they faced. Both could be described as ageing teams that needed breaking up, but with issues over those brought in as younger replacements."
