Liverpool vs Man City player ratings: Who stood out in Premier League top of the table fixture?

The Reds started fast and never let up as they took an iron grip on the title race

Liverpool thrashed Manchester City to take total control of the Premier League title race.

Goals from Fabinho, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane gave the reigning champions no chance with Bernardo Silva's second-half goal a mere consolation at a raucous Anfield.

Fabinho opened the scoring with a fabulous strike from range before Salah doubled the lead after a lightning fast counter-attack.

City threatened in spirts but their race was run when Mane headed home a Jordan Henderson cross just after half-time. Silva grabbed one back late on but it was to no avail.

The result leaves Jurgen Klopp’s Reds eight points clear of Leicester City in the table with City down in fourth.
