Liverpool have a bad habit of inconsistency and after a rampant win six days before the trip to Stamford Bridge, you’d be forgiven for being quite apprehensive about this fixture, especially given the fact Antonio Conte and his side were unbeaten going into it.
However, Liverpool are a changed side under Jurgen Klopp and his high-press, full throttle football was on show again as the Reds found themselves 2-0 up at half time thanks to an unlikely Dejan Lovren strike and a world-class strike from skipper Jordan Henderson.
Liverpool still have imperfections in this changed Klopp side and that was clear after another sloppy defensive error led to Diego Costa giving Chelsea a renewed sense of hope.
However, the Reds held on for another delightful away win to take them into the top four of the Premier League.
At the final whistle, we asked some of the fans for their initial reaction to the win.
Here’s what some of them had to say:
Fauzani was clearly impressed by new boy Joel Matip:

A Kopite seems to be feeling the full force of the Klopp effect as he’s unable to contain his excitement:
