Which Premier League contender has the BEST squad depth for the title race? Liverpool have thrived without Trent Alexander-Arnold and Arsenal have a robust spine... but Man City's star-studded squad is back to its best

Liverpool extended their advantage in the Premier League title race on Wednesday with a crucial 4-1 win over Chelsea, impressing without the likes of Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson in their starting line-up.

Conor Bradley, who was deputising for Alexander-Arnold at right-back on the night, dazzled on his chance with the first team, scoring a stunner and assisting twice in Liverpool's first league match since Jurgen Klopp announced he would be leaving Anfield in the summer.

Elsewhere, reigning champions Manchester City purred with delight as star man Kevin De Bruyne started his first match since August, helping Pep Guardiola's side to a 3-1 win over Burnley to stay five points behind leaders Liverpool with a game in hand.
