Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers was at the Etihad stadium along with a few Liverpool players in order to witness the clash between Bayern Munich and Manchester City. The two clubs were playing against each other in the Champions League group stages, which is something that Liverpool have been trying to come back. The Merseyside club have not been in this competition for the last four years. They are one of the prestigious clubs after having lifted the trophy five times in their history. Their last win in this competition came in 2005 under Rafa Benitez.

Rodgers has been given the responsibility to get to the club back into the top four, but the club only managed a seventh place finish in the league last season. This season, though, they have made an excellent start to the campaign and are currently second in the table. The partnership of Daniel Sturridge and Luis Suarez is expected to finally help Liverpool achieve their ambition. After the match, Rodgers said that he is delighted to have witnessed this excellent tactical battle, which saw Bayern Munich win the match 3-1. Liverpool can go to the top of the table if they win against Crystal Palace on Saturday.

More importantly, Rodgers is targeting a return to the Champions League. “Watching that game was a real motivation. That’s where every coach, every manager, every player wants to operate. You want to compete at that level and be judged at that level. Obviously, this club was for a lot of years. You have learn from performances like that. Tactically, I look in-depth at games too, and what goes on within them, so I learn something at every game,” said the former Swansea manager.

Liverpool are only two points behind table leaders Arsenal after having played six matches. They have failed to win only two of the six.
