Liverpool were a class above Manchester City in their comfortable 0–2 victory at the home of the reigning champions.

Manchester City are far from their best but Liverpool still had a job to do at the Etihad, where they had not won in the league since 2015. With Arsenal losing at home against West Ham on Saturday, Liverpool had the chance to make their lead at the top of the table even more intimidating.

Certainly, if Mohamed Salah keeps this up, the title will be won in time for Arsenal to give them a guard of honor at Anfield in May. For the 11th time this season, the presumptive Ballon d'Or winner graced a game with a goal and assist. The previous high watermark in a Premier League campaign was 11. It is February.
