Kevin de Bruyne, Manchester City midfielder commented ahead of the visit to Anfield, Liverpool headquarters this weekend.
The Manchester squad, which was held to a 0-0 draw yesterday by Copenhagen, did save their main squad to face Liverpool.
Liverpool are not having good luck at the start of the Premier League season this season.
However, reflecting on the previous match, Pep Guardiola’s team should be wary of Liverpool’s 1-7 win against Rangers which has the potential to increase the confidence of Jurgen Klopp’s team.
The Liverpool vs Manchester City bigmatch took place at Anfield Stadium, Sunday (16/10/2022).
Throughout this season, both teams have shown different performances. The Citizens are still as usual.
Manchester City made an impressive appearance in the elite competition of King Charles.
So what about the Reds? Jurgen Klopp’s men are having a hard time.
Jordan Henderson and team have only won two of eight matches.
City were stuck in the 10th ladder standings. But De Bruyne is reluctant to focus on that fact.
He still expects his rival to play at the best level. Precisely according to the natural potential of the club.
Personally, he can’t wait to compete. Although this is only a meeting of two clubs in the domestic league as usual.
But there are many champions fighting in the field.
“I like big games, I like a good atmosphere,” said De Bruyne.
Man City has just confirmed itself to advance to the last 16 phase of the Champions League (UCL).
Such a situation, slightly ease the task of Guardiola. He can rotate players in the remaining two matches in the UCL preliminary round.
It is undeniable, fatigue is often a scourge for a team like City.
Understandably, the British champions performed in four different competitions. But De Bruyne feels himself fully fit.
“I’m not tired at all. I don’t know how other people feel, but I feel fine,” he said.
Manchester Blue is in second place in the Premier League standings.
The Citizens now have 23 points, one point behind Arsenal at the top of the standings.
