THAI NIGHTMARE FOR NEW BOSS
BITTER rivals Manchester United and Liverpool will travel to their showcase pre-season friendly in Thailand TOGETHER after chartering a jumbo jet to take them to the Far East.
The two Premier League giants have decided to swap attitude for altitude when they kick off their preparations for the new campaign by competing for the Bangkok Century Cup in the Rajamangala National Stadium on July 12.
Sunday Mirror Sport understands that talks have taken place between officials at Old Trafford and Anfield about the best way to transport both teams to the Thai capital.
And they have opted to charter an Airbus A380 airliner – the world’s biggest passenger plane – for the 6,000-mile trip.
