It's a good time to be a Liverpool fan as they are now nine points clear at the top of the Premier League.

It comes after they beat Manchester City 2-0 at Anfield on Sunday.

Nine points is their biggest gap as league leaders since the end of their victorious 2019-20 season, when they had a huge 18 points advantage above the Citizens.

The match was City's fourth Premier League defeat in a row, and manager Pep Guardiola was teased by the Reds fans who chanted "You're getting sacked in the morning" from the stands.

The loss sent City into fifth place behind Brighton in fourth, Chelsea in third and Arsenal in second.

Guardiola responded by showing the Liverpool fans six fingers for the six Premier League titles he has won with his side.

It is Liverpool's manager Arne Slot's first season in charge at Anfield, and already he is making his mark on the club.

The Dutchman told BBC Match of the Day that his side were close to perfect against Manchester City.

"At the end the result is the most important but the performance was great. If you want to win against a team like City you have to be good at every part of football.

"I think we weren't perfect but we came quite close to managing it all".

But can Arsenal or Chelsea catch up with them?

Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has returned to fitness and England star Bukayo Saka is also on top form.

Chelsea are also playing well, with Cole Palmer still showing he is one of the top goal scorers in Europe at the moment.
