Liverpool 6 Watford 1: Rampant Reds run roughshod to go top

Liverpool sent a statement out to the rest of the Premier League with a scintillating 6-1 hammering of Watford on Sunday.

Liverpool's devastating front three of Philippe Coutinho, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino were all on target as the Reds battered Watford 6-1 to go top of the Premier League.

Chelsea ran riot in a 5-0 hammering of Everton on Saturday to reach the summit, but Liverpool responded in kind with a slick, incisive display at Anfield to displace Antonio Conte's men.

Unsurprisingly, it was Coutinho, Firmino and Mane that proved the Hornets' tormentors in chief and the latter met Coutinho's cross to open the scoring.
