This summer, at the Indian Super League club Kerala Blasters, there is a distinctive Manchester United flavour. The Kochi-based club have roped in two former Manchester United employees this summer and their chief executive officer, Varun Tripuraneni, is a self-confessed Manchester United die hard fan.Rene Meulensteen was recently appointed the Blasters' new head coach while yesterday, the club announced the signing of five-time Premier League champion Wes Brown. Both Meulensteen and Brown were part of Alex Ferguson's era of relentless success at Old Trafford and are, hence, widely known, Brown in particular.With negotiations currently ongoing between Kerala Blasters and Dimitar Berbatov, another former Manchester United star could be joining Meulensteen and Brown in the United party in Kochi. The Berbatov signing is imminent if close sources are to be believed, making the Blasters squad for the 2017-18 Indian Super League season one with a big Red Devils influence.However, there is another plot to the story, one that concerns the biggest domestic rivals of Manchester United, Liverpool. Both Liverpool and Manchester United are two of the most successful English clubs and enjoy a fan base that extends to the farthest corners of the globe. India, too, has a large group of fanatical followers of both clubs and one of the most famous Indian Liverpool fans is Kerala Blasters forward CK Vineeth.Vineeth, who wished Brown upon his unveiling at Kerala Blasters, is an ardent Liverpool fan and got the banter started alongside fellow Blasters forward and Reds fan Iain Hume late last night.It all started during the day when Vineeth welcomed Brown with an Old Trafford reference..@WesBrown24, if you thought Old Trafford was loud, wait until you meet the sea of yellow in Kerala. @KeralaBlasters ?#WelcomeWes pic.twitter.com/1ZLxQTNi3D— CK Vineeth (@ckvineeth) August 15, 2017A few hours later, before Liverpool's important Champions League qualifier against Hoffenheim, Vineeth was at it again, perhaps in a bid to have a bit of fun with the Manchester United group at Kerala Blasters.Big match for @LFC against @achtzehn99 at the Rhein-Neckar Arena in Germany tonight. Who else is watching with me? ?#LFC #UCLQualifier— CK Vineeth (@ckvineeth) August 15, 2017Good to know there's be another @LFC fan with me out there! ??— Iain Hume (@Humey_7) August 15, 2017Tell me @Humey_7, along with @rinoanto, how are we going to deal with these United boys in training? @WesBrown24 ?? #LFC #Banter https://t.co/ZGi0tp2fya— CK Vineeth (@ckvineeth) August 15, 2017Could be interesting banter with them all. Training will be tense either way after the 2 league games! #Oct14th #March10th— Iain Hume (@Humey_7) August 15, 2017Kerala Blasters are seemingly having all the fun before the real thing of the ISL starts in mid-November. Interestingly, Vineeth has also named his home Anfield, a tribute to the fabled home ground of Liverpool.You have heard right, Sajna. This is true. Anfield will always be home. :)— CK Vineeth (@ckvineeth) August 15, 2017The Kerala Blasters banter party has already started, with a special English North-West derby touch to it. Should Meulensteen and co guide Kerala Blasters to the ISL title next season, it will mark another success story for the Manchester United-Liverpool rivalry after the crowd-pulling gigs of Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville on Sky Sports.Also Read: ISL 2017: Kerala Blasters' star strike pair already showing great chemistry off the pitch
