Manchester United legend hails “special” Anfield atmosphere ahead of Liverpool clash on Sunday

Former Manchester United striker Andy Cole has spoken of his love for playing at Anfield, describing the occasion as “special”.

Cole, who is the Premier League’s third all time top goalscorer at the time of writing, played for the Red Devils for seven years, winning five league titles and a Champions League among other silverware. His partnership with fellow striker Dwight Yorke was a notorious part of Sir Alex Ferguson’s treble winners in 1999.

The former England international scored four times against Liverpool during his time at Man Utd – with all four of those goals coming at Anfield.
