New Headline: "MUTFest: Red Devils Rising

Brilliant midfielder will join Liverpool Brilliant Stephenson is shining for Dundee United Amid difficulties at right-back and centre midfield the Liverpool head coach could do a lot worse than seek to integrate Stephenson into the first-team picture . Sunday’s Dundee derby was a disappointment for Stephenson and his Dundee United teammates. From being 2-0 up in the 90th minute the visitors let it slip at Dens Park late on - succumbing to two added-time goals and only managing a draw.

While Jim Goodwin sifts through the wreckage of two lost points for his side he can at least take huge encouragement once again from the performance of Stephenson. He played right midfield in the Dundee United manager’s 3-4-2-1 formation - contributing the second goal with a well-timed back-post header.
