Manchester United legend Denis Irwin feels Danny Blind will be key in Sunday's clash at Liverpool.

Irwin believes Blind's versatility will be crucial at Anfield.

"Daley's a good, honest pro," Irwin told ManUtd.com at the launch of the Red Heart United charity match. "He can play at centre-half if you need him to, left-back if you need him to, and obviously he's played mostly in midfield for us this season. I think he's been a really good signing.

"He's a player who reads situations very, very well, I thought he played extremely well on Sunday [against Spurs]. It'll be interesting to see the team the manager picks against Liverpool, but it wouldn't surprise me if he picks the same 11 players, because they played so well. That's the manager's decision and he's got one or two back from suspension and injury, but I thought the team played very well on Sunday."
