Arsenal vs Liverpool player ratings: Ramsdale 4, Saka 5; Jota 6, Robertson 8

Jurgen Klopp warned his Liverpool stars that their momentum in the Premier League title race is a "fragile flower" following Wednesday's vital 2-0 win at Arsenal.

Klopp's side closed the gap on leaders Manchester City to one point thanks to goals from Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino at the Emirates Stadium.

Liverpool's ninth consecutive league victory puts the destiny of the title in their hands as they would take the trophy if they win their remaining nine games, including a crucial trip to City on April 10.

While City faltered in a goalless draw at Crystal Palace on Monday, Liverpool were at their relentless best as they survived Arsenal's first-half barrage before snatching the points.

But, although Liverpool are the league's in-form team, Reds boss Klopp is cautious about putting too much faith in their momentum.

"Momentum is the most fragile flower on the planet," he said.

"If someone walks on it, then you have to work to get the momentum back and just get through it.

"A rhythm is good but a rhythm is playing every four days, three days, it is a rhythm but it is an intense one, we are not complaining, we want to be in all competitions.

"It is fine but the opponents are all quality and they are really different."

The seismic showdown with City could well determine if Liverpool can land a second English title in three seasons.

But Liverpool, chasing an unprecedented quadruple, face Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup quarter-finals this weekend, then host Watford immediately after the international break.
