ETIHAD STADIUM, MANCHESTER // Liverpool moved 11 points clear at the top of the Premier League table with a convincing performance and win against Manchester City.

Slot used the false nine tactic that Guardiola made famous with his use of Lionel Messi at Barcelona against him and the Manchester City defense couldn't live with it.

Midfield revitalized

Looking lethargic in midfield at times lately, Liverpool looked much more filled with energy here.



There were alternatives — Pep Guardiola could have gone with Bernardo Silva, a veteran of this fixture, or Mateo Kovacic or Ilkay Gundogan — but he opted to go for it.



Haaland has only won one of his eight games against Liverpool but the Norwegian has also scored more than a third of the host's goals this season in the Premier League.

There was no Haaland, but there was no problem (for Liverpool, at least).

Premier League title grip strengthened

Liverpool knew it had the chance to move 11 points clear at the top of the Premier League table with a win

But having not won at the Etihad since April 2018 (in the Champions League) or November 2015 (domestically), it was never going to be easy.

A banner reading "This Means Four" was unveiled near the away fans, referring to the host's Premier League title run

Liverpool swiftly took control of the game and very much has its grip on the league standings too.
