Manchester City 2-1 Liverpool: 5 Talking Points | Premier League 2018-19

#5 City's strength in depth amazes again

Manchester City has perhaps the most impressive squad in English football.

Manchester City's ability to march on forward and follow their coach's gameplan despite the absence of de Bruyne, Walker, Maharez, or Gündoğan in the starting XI was amazing on the night. Pep Guardiola has built a squad of players who all know their roles perfectly and are capable of filling in at several different roles if the need ever arises.

City has spent most of this campaign without arguably their best player, Kevin De Bruyne, who's faced several major injury concerns this year. Other than in recent fixtures such as the defeats to Chelsea or Crystal Palace, City have not looked like they've missed him too much as Bernardo Silva has stepped up and filled his role.

De Bruyne wasn't fit enough to start while Riyad Mahrez and Gabriel Jesus were named on the bench. Their squad depth is simply amazing.
