Chelsea beat champions Liverpool and take control in top four race.

While Man City are far and away the best team in the land, Thomas Tuchel's side are on a 10-game unbeaten streak and made light work of Klopp's men

They are still far away from Manchester City but Chelsea are at least proving they might end up being the best of the rest after dominating a fragile Liverpool at Anfield over a full 90 minutes.

Jurgen Klopp may have his selection problems ahead of this Premier League encounter but the Blues showed no mercy with Mason Mount's goal proving the difference in a comfortable 1-0 win.

VAR did its best to delay the inevitable, ruling out of Timo Werner's goal after he appeared to break the offside trap and rounded Alisson to score, but Mount's brilliant dribble and curled shot got the west London club the three points they deserved.

Although bringing Chelsea up only to fourth place in the league, the win is potentially significant, with a four-point gap opening on Liverpool with 11 games to go.
