Man City charges LIVE: Premier League punishment agreement as Liverpool response sent

· Mirror

Manchester City have appealed after being found guilty of breaking Premier League financial rules and await a decision over the sanctions they face

Welcome to Mirror Football's Manchester City Premier League charges live blog.

Enzo Maresca's side took to the field for the first time after being found guilty of breaking Premier League financial rules. Anfield offered a frosty atmosphere on Sunday, but after Ryan Gravenberch's red card, City swept Liverpool aside to record a 3-0 win.

The fallout to that result and City leading the Premier League has seen a great deal of frustration over the club's punishment still being unknown. City also await the result of their appeal.

City did get a hint of what this season could look like as they were booed before, during and after the match at Anfield and saw their passing punctuated by the shout of 'cheats' as they coasted to victory against the Reds.

Maresca's men will play in front of their home crowd and be offered some brief respite in the Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday.

Stay with us for the latest football news, updates and developments surrounding City's charges.

City 'make own noise'

Enzo Maresca has told his players to make their own noise with the performances, and was pleased they did against Liverpool.

Following City's win over the Reds, he said:

> “My message to the players since we were together three days ago, when they all came back from their national teams, has been quite clear: guys, the noise will always be there so it’s about how we learn to deal with the noise and it’s our duty to make our noise. Our noise is to win games in the way we did today and to be happy. It was our fans making the noise at the end of the game today.”

Premier League agreement

Premier League clubs believe Manchester City should be expelled from the top flight next season if their appeal against the financial charges fails, per reports.

Premier League clubs 'do not expect' City to remain in the top flight next season if their appeal fails. It has also been claimed that 'many believe' a points deduction would not be sufficient if it resulted in City spending just one season outside the Premier League.
