“I really don’t understand this question. If the coach says that we are not in the title race, it’s because it’s like that.
“We are always training and playing to defend Chelsea and leave it as high as possible”, Fernandez told ESPN.
While 7 points is not an insurmountable gap, Liverpool have a game in hand, which could potentially extend their lead to 10 points.
The Blues end 2024 with a trip to face Ipswich at Portman Road.
