Two MU players have their shirts retired by Liverpool at Anfield

Before the big match between Liverpool and MU at Anfield, fans were surprised when Roy Keane and Cristiano Ronaldo's shirts were hung prominently in the away team's dressing room at Anfield.

Ronaldo and Keane's shirts are hung proudly in the Liverpool dressing room.

This is a unique Liverpool tradition. While the home team's dressing room displays the shirts of current players, the away team's dressing room honors the legends who have played at Anfield, regardless of who they are playing against. In addition to Keane and Ronaldo, the list includes Lionel Messi, Thierry Henry, Gianluigi Buffon, Fabio Cannavaro, and many other superstars.

Liverpool's choice of the two MU names was not accidental. Former defender Jamie Carragher - who has faced the "Red Devils" hundreds of times - even rated Keane and Ronaldo as "the two best opponents" he has ever faced in his career. Despite often criticizing Ronaldo, Carragher still has special respect for the Portuguese superstar.

"Ronaldo became a great player at Manchester United. He was not a natural goalscorer, but he turned himself into one of the greatest goalscorers in history thanks to his steely spirit and extraordinary will," Carragher admitted.

This detail further increases the heat for the match at Anfield on the evening of October 19 when Liverpool is eager to end a 3-match losing streak, and MU coach Ruben Amorim needs a win to dispel doubts about his future.

In that fiery atmosphere, the presence of Keane and Ronaldo shirts in the dressing room could be an inspirational reminder for the "Red Devils" stars that the legendary spirit is still there and they need to know how to rekindle it to make victory.
