The England international Trent Alexander-Arnold was named captain in the absence of Virgil van Dijk in a much-changed side named by Arne Slot and led by example after a being criticised for his display in a 2-2 draw against Manchester United last weekend.
Slot made eight changes after suffering just his second defeat in charge of the Reds in Wednesday's League Cup semi-final first leg against Tottenham .
Diogo Jota was left with a simple task to tap in from Darwin Nunez's low cross to open the floodgates. Jayden Danns made the most of just his second appearance of the season to fire in the third 14 minutes from time.But the Italian took advantage of some rare game time to net his first goal for the club with a long range strike in off the far post."They are world-class players and on the counter it is hard to stop."Manchester City also face fourth-tier opposition later against Salford City, who are owned by a group of former Manchester United greats.
