No team has started better in the top division than Liverpool this season, with their 34 points from 12 games matching Manchester City during the 2017-18 campaign.

The Liverpool side of 1990/91 did not go on to win the title, but Mourinho believes Jurgen Klopp’s team will end their 30-year wait to be crowned champions.

He said: “If you are behind [in the title race], you have to feel like you can reach them. If you are top of the league with a big advantage, you have to feel like it is not over.

“But I am not there, I’m here. And here, from my position, I think it’s done unless something dramatic happens in terms of an injury situation that breaks the team.

“But I think the team is a complete puzzle. I feel the way they play is adapted to the qualities of the players.

“City are capable of winning seven, eight, nine matches in a row, but I can’t see how Liverpool can lose this advantage of nine points to them.”
