Liverpool on top with 23 pts (table taken from the official site)

last night Liverpool have proven themselves credentials to the title as the beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge with 1-nil after! Liverpool is now on top with 23 pts and the only team that hasn't been beaten so far. it's an incredible season for them so far especially with this record. finally they're the one who beats Chelsea's record of 86 unbeaten matches. the last time Chelsea was beaten at home was back in January 2004. both team played their best and it was a thrilling and fantastic game. the first and winning goal for Liverpool was in the first half at 10' and it was a deflection made by Alonso. The stadium was filled with Liverpool chants after that leaving Chelsea fans slumping down their seats. After that, Chelsea didn't fool around as they began to strike forward and attempted many tries in hoping for an equalizer. Liverpool maintained their leading goal by defending and blocking Chelsea's ball as the second half commenced. I'm just stating little bits of the match since i'm out of words on how to describe the amazing match so here's the breakdown of the match full time.
