PRESS THE PRESSERS Few teams can press as well as Chelsea, but Liverpool provided a masterclass in the art as they returned to the high- energy performances of last season. Insatiable in attack as they powered towards The Kop in the second half, Rodgers’ side were equally breathless in defence as they swarmed all over Chelsea like an army of red ants. Anfield reverberated in its appreciation of the effort and Mourinho’s side were simply not allowed to have the time on the ball or the composure to establish their normal tempo and control over the game.
