Match week 6 of the Premier League 2024-25 season saw a huge uproar as City lost their top spot to Liverpool, while United dropped to the 12th spot after losing 0-3 to Tottenham.
However, what were the main points of discussion after the end of week 6? Let's take a look.
City struggling without Rodri
After a successful start to their season by winning 5 games in a row, the defending champions Manchester City now have two consecutive draws under their belt. Haaland going goalless in both games and missing the services of Rodri is hurting City a lot. Pep Guardiola needs to find a way to get his team back on track as quickly as possible if they wish to win the title for the fifth time in a row.
Liverpool on the rise
While everyone thought Liverpool would suffer greatly this season following the departure of their most successful manager, Jurgen Klopp, the Reds have managed well under Arne Slot's regime and even claimed the top spot on the points table after match week 6.
