English Premier League clubs reject controversial overhaul plan

A plan to transform English soccer engineered by Liverpool and Manchester United was rejected by Premier League rivals at a meeting on Wednesday. Liverpool and United worked with the English Football League on a plan that would have provided more cash for the three professional divisions below the Premier League, but it was denounced by critics as a power grab by the wealthy elite to strengthen their control. The plan known as Project Big Picture was criticized by the government and Premier League leadership ahead of Wednesday's video call between clubs. "All 20 Premier League clubs today unanimously agreed that Project Big Picture will not be endorsed or pursued by the Premier League, or the FA," the Premier League said in a statement. "Further, Premier League Shareholders agreed to work together as a 20-club collective on a strategic plan for the future structures and financing of English football, consulting with all stakeholders to ensure a vibrant, competitive and sustainabl

We did well against 'champions': Raheem Sterling after thrashing Liverpool

Manchester City registered an emphatic 4-0 win over Liverpool, who were competing for the first time since they sealed the Premier League title

EPL: Liverpool thrashed 4-0 by Manchester City in 1st game as champions

As they stepped onto the pitch, Liverpool's players were given a guard of honor from Manchester City. It was the only time they looked like Premier League champions on Thursday. I think they drank a lot of beers in the last week, City manager Pep Guardiola said. The dethroned champions made sure there was an abrupt comedown from the partying. A merciless attacking display sparked by City scorers Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden consigned Liverpool to a 4-0 loss exactly a week after its 30-year title drought ended. They were quicker than us in mind -- we lacked fluidity, Liverpool manager Jrgen Klopp said. "Isn't it nice another team can be champions when Man City play so well? The slack defending and lack of sharpness from Liverpool was perhaps forgivable from players who had spent the previous 31 rounds establishing an unprecedented 23-point lead to become England's earliest champions. Such an emphatic loss is not how Liverpool wanted to close out such a memorable
