Top by 1 point with 4 teams very close to them i dont consider a true top tbh. If they were 5 points clear or something that is notable. Right now its still early days and the lead will change hands when the other teams clash.
They could still always lose their next game so it is not really a guarantee to that however from what I've seen it seems just that liverpool fans is kinda celebrating like they have won the league and keep on telling that this year might be their time, in fact they have said this statement almost every year
Yes is too early to say that this season is their season. The Problem in Liverpool Now is The defence, and all time liverpool problem is consistency. For now the play so consistant, but sometimes, their consistancy is unstable, just like in 13-14 when they were on top of table but inconsitant at the end of the season then Manchester city run in front of them.
after defeated Burnley several weeks ago Liverpool looks have steady performance but indeed too early to judges other teams could not pursuing them for title race and usually after Boxing day on December the champion of EPL will be determined so there are possibility on standings league their rank will taken over especially if they lost 1 or 2 times
