With Matchweek 11 in the Premier League all but over, with only Huddersfield vs Fulham remaining, the table has undergone change. Man City is now the undisputed leader after thrashing Southampton 6-1 on Sunday.
One thing that worked in their favor was Liverpool's weekend result. The Reds traveled to Arsenal on Saturday and conceded a late equalizer to drop two precious points. Chelsea won their fixture to move level on points with Klopp's men.

Elsewhere, Tottenham secured a 3-2 win over Wolves while Man United came back from a goal down to snatch a late victory away to Bournemouth. Here are the standout stats from the weekend action.
Maurizio Sarri equals Premier League debut record
Sarri has begun life at Chelsea extremely well. The Italian boss is yet to lose a game in the Premier League after 11 games, winning his most recent tie 3-1 against Crystal Palace. That result saw him equal the record for the longest unbeaten start by an English top-flight boss.

Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea equal 40-year record
For the first time in 40 years, three clubs have gone unbeaten in their opening 11 games. The last time three top-flight teams achieved this was back in 1978-79.
Aguero reaches a milestone
In the 6-1 thrashing of Southampton, Sergio Aguero was instrumental but came away only with a single goal. Noentheless, that was enough to see him become only the third player in Premier League history to score 150 goals for a single club, joining Wayne Rooney and Thierry Henry.
