Manchester United extended the winning streak to second after a hard-fought victory over Southampton. An away win and a clean sheet added to another evidence and a landmark to the revolution that Ten Hag has brought to Manchester United. With Bruno Frenandes scoring the only goal which also served as a winning goal on the 55th minute proving that the convincing win against top-tier Liverpool 2-1, not a hard luck, rather a sentimental step for a better future for the Red Devil.
The back to back victories of Manchester United is the first time since February. The home team, Southampton tried to make a comeback and push an equalizer but thanks to David De Gea’s outstanding goalkeeping performancing and denying every possible chances for the home team including Joe Aribo’s Attempt on the second half. The Southampton defeat will be the sixth home game lost in all competitions. The bitter starting EPL results for Manchester United have officially ended despite the team is still under Formative period, adapting Ten Hag’s system.
Liverpool made an impressive comeback by defeating Bournemouth 9-0, led by Roberto Firmino scoring two goals (31’ and 62’). Liverpool tied the biggest victory in Saturday’s win against this newly promoted team. This 9 goal record victory was done twice by Manchester United and one by Leicester City. This is a much needed win for Liverpool as the club were having a pretty rough start recording 2 draws and 1 loss.

This is a “perfect football afternoon” according to Liverpool mentor Jurgen Klopp. After winning two trophies last season, almost clinching four titles, expectations for Liverpool this season. But the thing turned in another direction and sank their first three games by having a draw result against the newly promoted Fulham – settling a draw at home over Crystal Palace, and a defeat over the formative period Manchester United.
“We were not happy with the way we played; we had good moments in nearly all the games,” Klopp said. “We showed things which we are strong at and other things where we have to improve and that’s what we had to do today, but you cannot make a list and take them all off the list step by step.”
“You just have to give the game a proper direction and that’s why I loved the start today so much. We didn’t hesitate, we didn’t hold anything back, we just went into the game full flying, put them under pressure, had the battles in the right areas in the box, around the box, bodies in the box, second ball situations, go again, and these kinds of things,” he said.
