The main takeaway was that both sides need the craft and energy of Moisés Caicedo in midfield. Chelsea and Liverpool played out an entertaining but flawed draw at Stamford Bridge, leaving Mauricio Pochettino and Jürgen Klopp with much to ponder.
Chelsea are likely to win the race to sign Caicedo from Brighton and they will feel encouraged after taking a point from Pochettino’s first game in charge. They were fit, committed and threatened to overwhelm Liverpool at times. Luis Díaz had given Liverpool an early lead but they did not look like title challengers. Chelsea, who levelled thanks to a debut goal from Axel Disasi, could have won it in the end.
