'Scary good' - Liverpool fans send Chelsea warning after Leicester City win

Liverpool fans have been reacting to Chelsea’s latest win in the Premier League.

But Chelsea were in early kick-off action as they faced Leicester City at the King Power Stadium, and ran out convincing 3-0 winners.

Plenty of Liverpool fans reacted to Chelsea’s victory on social media, with many believing that the title is theirs to lose.

Antonio Rudiger opened the scoring for Thomas Tuchel’s side, before N’Golo Kante doubled the lead with a goal against his former club.

A strike from Christian Pulisic midway through the second half sealed the points for Chelsea, which saw them extend their lead at the top of the table.

The win at the King Power leaves Chelsea six points clear of second-placed Manchester City, and seven ahead of Liverpool going into their game against Arsenal.

Liverpool are due to take on Chelsea in the Premier League on January 2 at Stamford Bridge.

The reverse fixture at Anfield ended in a 1-1 draw back in August, with a Mohamed Salah penalty cancelling out a Kai Havertz header.
