Steven Gerrard wants Liverpool fans to get behind their team and spur them to victory over Manchester United in Sunday's English Premier League game.
Asked if he had a message to give to the fans ahead of the crucial encounter, Gerrard said: "Make as much noise as you can and get behind us.
"They're going to play a big part on Sunday. Hopefully the players can perform to our level and it can be a fantastic day that everyone can remember for the game and we can put a good show on for them."
The Liverpool thinks the Liverpool-United fixture is the biggest game in the world. "For me, it's the biggest (game) because the Premier League is the biggest league in the world and these are the two most successful clubs.
"I'm not being biased when I say that -- I think Liverpool vs Man U is the biggest game. Maybe Barca and Madrid is up there close to that, but for me it's still this one.
"It's a massive game -- we're looking for our first (league) win of the season and there would be no one better for us to start getting three points on the board. Hopefully then we can go on a run of winning games and move up the league because our start to the season has been inconsistent."
Gerrard is confident once Liverpool pick up their first win, they can build on the momentum and climb up the table; and according to the midfielder there is no better game to do it than against United. "I think we've been really close to that win," the 32-year-old said. "At West Brom, we weren't good enough and didn't deserve anything out of the game. The sending off was a big turning point.
"We were magnificent against Man City and should have won that game comfortably. At Sunderland it was the same and we should have had a win, so we should have six points on the board now.
"We didn't deserve anything against West Brom and Arsenal, so it's important that we try and find those three points as soon as possible and if you could pick one team in the league who you want to get that first win against, of course it would be United on Sunday.
"A win would give the team huge belief and confidence moving forward. I don't think this team is far away from clicking. We've shown signs we are a good team and it'll come sooner rather than later, that's what I believe.
"With our support behind us at Anfield and the timing of this game, I'm confident that if we play well we can take maximum points.
"These games boil down to small details and whoever makes the least mistakes. I think it will be a little bit cagey early on and it's usually an individual mistake that wins or loses you these games. Let's hope that it's not one of our players."
