Ruud van Nistelrooy has warned Manchester United any repeat of their sloppy second-half show at Portsmouth will see them dumped out of the FA Cup by Liverpool next weekend.On the face of it, United´s 3-1 Premiership triumph at Fratton Park provided the perfect preparation for Saturday´s mouth-watering Anfield showdown with Rafael Benitez´s men. But van Nistelrooy was concerned at the drop in standards once the Red Devils had strolled into a three-goal half-time lead."We were very good in the first half but I would prefer not to talk about the second," said van Nistelrooy. "We deserved to concede a goal because our second-half performance was not very good."
