Zhan Jun: Red Army fans have to accept the fact that the recruitment failed. The main reason for withdrawing from the championship is that there is no time.

In the 11th round of the Premier League on November 10, Liverpool lost 0-3 to Manchester City in an away game. Commentator Mr. Zhan Jun updated social media.

After the Premier League 11, the top nine are separated by 8 points. There are five teams with 18 points. The competition for the fourth place will be very lively. The season is not yet a third of the way, but I personally feel that the battle between Manchester City and Liverpool has become a watershed: Liverpool has no hope of defending the title and can only become a "spoiler"; Manchester City has once again become a "stumbling block" in Arsenal's championship.

Arsenal's advantage lies in its solid defense, although this round ended its record of 8 consecutive club games with zero seals. At the same time, the team's lineup depth is the most guaranteed since Arteta took office. After the international break, Odegaard, Jokeres, Havertz, Martinelli and Madueke will all return from injury. The two sets of players can go hand in hand in dealing with third-line operations. The real test may come in March or April next year. Once the Champions League enters the quarter-finals and semi-finals and the league points advantage is reduced, whether the team can maintain the fighting spirit and resilience it has had for more than a month.

Manchester City's advantage is Guardiola's league winning experience and the team's "inertial sprint power." This is their core competitiveness that enables them to overpower Liverpool and Arsenal to win the Premier League title for the sixth time in seven years. This season, Guardiola's pragmatic anti-counterattack strategy based on changes in opponents and on-field situations has been a highlight. The recent role of Doku as an offensive free agent has also allowed the team to get rid of excessive reliance on Haaland. The only worry is still the pressure resistance of the defense line, especially in terms of air defense ability and physical confrontation, which is easy to be at a disadvantage.

If the problems encountered this season and the ups and downs of the team were replaced by last season, maybe the Red Army fans would feel better, but they must also accept the fact that this summer window signing has failed (so far). Currently ranked eighth, the main reason for withdrawing from the championship is: running out of time. Although it is only early November, it feels like it will be difficult for the coaching team to solve the problems on both offense and defense in a few months. New players in various positions need more time to adjust. How to deal with Salah's decline? Does the club still have signing funds for the winter window? Do you need to bring in a central defender or a winger? We can only hope to win a "consolation prize" in the League Cup or the FA Cup starting in January next year.
