The Tigers shot at the beginning, Ronaldo and Messi begged me to retire!

Rodgers knows that Liverpool have in fact lost the game and there will be no chance of winning again.

Apart from Coutinho, they have no players who can threaten the Manchester City goal.

Balotelli is invisible, Raheem Sterling in City's overall defence, leaving only Coutinho struggling to support.

The three midfielders are not offensive players, and it is difficult to burst out.

Compared with last season, not to mention how the defense is, Liverpool is really falling off a cliff in attack!

Don't look at Suarez's transfer and leave, but what he took away was Liverpool's perfect attacking system, which is the possibility of Liverpool constantly attacking the city.

Liverpool's trident last season was arguably a chill for all opponents.

But Suarez left, Sturridge suffered another serious injury, and only Raheem Sterling, who was far less in form than last season, can still play.

He already had a hunch that if he did not bring in outstanding attacking players in the winter, he was afraid that Liverpool's results this season would be extremely ugly.

There was no hope in the first half, and Rodgers knew that if he wanted to break the Manchester City goal, he could only expect Manchester City to make substitutions in the second half and replace Xu Ning.

Manchester City have played three games this season, with Xu Ning either coming off the bench or being substituted in the second half.

Although Pellegrini pays attention to the protection of Xu Ning, he can't really not let Xu Ning play all the time.

It just so happened that Xu Ning had just won three individual honorary trophies before this game, so he just let him play all the time.

Xu Ning is also really active, he has won three trophies, if he scored less than three, is it a bit of a joke?

So in the 70th minute of the second half, Xu Ning scored the third goal of the game.

This time it was David Silva who cut inside on the left and Xu Ning threw off Skotel and blasted a shot before the goalkeeper blocked.

4:0

Manchester City played Liverpool without any temper.

The fans sent the warmest applause and cheers to Xu Ning.

This kind of competition is what they are most looking forward to.

However, Manchester City inevitably need to control the tempo after sealing in the win, and the attack is not as fierce.

Liverpool were also kicked to the point where it was difficult to organise an effective confrontation.

The score lasted until the end of the game when a goal finally appeared.

And it was one goal from each side.

Substitute Roberto Firmino used his nimble movement to score a goal in the scuffle to make it 5-0.

However, in the final moments, Coutinho's somewhat unreasonable cloud-piercing arrow helped Liverpool score a face-saving goal.

5:1

, that's the final score of the game.

Of course, Manchester City certainly did not fight to the death, and neither did Liverpool.

It was as if both sides acquiesced to this outcome and did not want to change much.

After the game, Rodgers said with regret that the current Liverpool is indeed not Manchester City's opponent, and Manchester City is still a unique presence in the Premier League this season.

As for whether he will be held accountable by the club, that's his own business.

After two rounds, although there is not much competition for the championship, the performance of the teams can still reflect certain problems.

For example, Manchester City, which leads the table because of goal difference, Chelsea, who also won two consecutive victories, and Tottenham Hotspur, who won two in a row...

It was somewhat surprising that Louis van Gaal's Manchester United got off to a troubled start.

They lost directly to Swansea in the first round, and were forced to draw by Sunderland in the second round, and played extremely hard.

The chaos of the tactical system has left Manchester United fans around the world without a clue.

In Manchester today, the red and blue sides have completely bucked the trend.

The Red Devils Manchester United sink, and the blue moon Manchester City dominate the Premier League.

Arsenal are also quite stable, one win and one draw, you can't say how strong, but the victory is persevering.

Interestingly, Swansea started well, beating Manchester United and Burnley in a row, and although they only finished fourth in the table on goal difference, it has to be said that it has been a huge improvement.

But at this time, everyone's mind is no longer here, because the draw for the group stage of the Champions League in the new season has begun.

As usual, the players stayed at the training base to watch the draw, and at Xu Ning's suggestion, this has become a traditional activity and is likely to be passed on.

It is indeed a good activity to enhance the relationship between the players, increase tacit understanding, and also talk about the opponent for the first time.

This time, Manchester City are undoubtedly the first team.

After all, it is the reigning champions of the Champions League, and the European points obtained last season are dazzling enough.

In addition to Manchester City, the first tier includes Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, Chelsea, Benfica, Atletico Madrid and Arsenal.

According to the rules, teams of the same class will not meet, which means that these seven teams will not be Manchester City's group stage opponents.

Of course, Manchester City are not afraid of anyone.

They won't meet Manchester City in the group stage, it's actually their luck.

Benfica, in particular, managed to reach the knockout stages after several seasons, and Benfica managed to reach the first gear.

However, their real strength is still difficult to compete with the top giants, and they are the luckiest ones.

The second boog includes Schalke 04, Borussia Dortmund, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, Shakhtar, Basel, St Petersburg and Porto.

The third pot includes Bayer Leverkusen, Olympiacos, Ajax, Liverpool, Sporting Lisbon, Galatasaray, Athletic Bilbao and Dynamo Moscow.

The fourth pot includes Anderlecht, Roma, Atletico Greeks, Borisov, Ludogorec, Maribor, Monaco and Malmö.

This is probably the most popular Champions League season

, and even the fishbelly team has appeared in the second gear, and

the third and fourth gears are even less giant.

It can only be said that the five major league teams that play the play-offs do not compete, otherwise there would not be so many second-tier league teams in the group stage.

Xu Ning sighed, the group stage is probably nothing to see, and it is not easy to find a death group.

It is no wonder that Europe's big clubs are disgusted with UEFA's blind expansion.

Otherwise, do you think that fans like Sporting Lisbon and Borisov will want to watch games?

At least that's the state of affairs in the Manchester City dressing room right now.

"What's the point of not seeing this draw?

""I can't even make up the death group, I don't care much about which opponent I can

draw!" "Maybe the only thing that interests me is that I want to know which unlucky egg is so unlucky to draw us

!" "This Champions League group stage, you can play the line with your eyes closed!"
