(Reuters) - Liverpool midfielder James Milner says he will be rooting for Manchester United for the first time in his life when they take on Manchester City in the Premier League on Wednesday.
Defending champions City are two points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool and winning their game in hand at the home of their derby rivals would allow Pep Guardiola's side to retake the lead in the title race.
"First time in my life," Milner told reporters when asked if he would support United over City."But I won't be watching. It's a bit of a waste of energy, willing the ball in the other goal."
