Watford 0-3 Liverpool
Thanks for joining me this afternoon.
That's me done for now. But you can stay across all the reaction to today's games here.

It's all over. That was a comfortable scoreline in the end for Liverpool.

Four minutes added.
Roberto Firmino
What was I saying about Watford playing into Liverpool's hands...
It's an incisive counter-attack from Jurgen Klopp's side. Andy Robertson charges down the left to tee-up Sadio Mane.
But while Ben Foster brilliantly saves Mane's effort, Firmino is on hand to tap in from close range.
Watford 0-2 Liverpool
Roberto Pereyra sets his sights but his aim is a little off and his right-footed curler drifts just wide of the Liverpool goal. That was a decent effort by the Watford man.

What was Jordan Henderson thinking?
He was on a booking, had just had let-off for some over-the-top protesting and then he just throws out an arm to block off Etienne Capoue.
That's a second yellow and early shower time.

And to think Watford had brought Andre Gray on for Will Hughes just before that free-kick.
Trent Alexander-Arnold
What. A. Goal. Has Trent Alexander-Arnold been watching clips of David Beckham in his pomp?
He fires in a free-kick from 25-yards that has whip, pace and unerring accuracy. There's no stopping that.
Watford 0-1 Liverpool
Watford are really having a go here. Will Hughes and Kiko work some space down the right but Etienne Capoue's shot is high, wide and handsome.
One of those that sits up perfectly, but that you regret smashing at goal as soon as you make contact.
Watford 0-1 Liverpool
Watford are throwing men forward now as they try to retrieve a point.
Dare I say an open invitation to Mohamed Salah et al at the other end....
Mohamed Salah
Liverpool have been toiling in attack today but when you need a goal is their really anyone else to turn to.
Roberto Firmino sets Sadio Mane away with a lovely little pass inside the Watford full-back Kiko and his cut-back finds who else, Mohamed Salah.
The Egyptian gets a touch fortunate as the ball trickles through Watford keeper Ben Foster's legs but that's 24 goals in his last 30 league games.

Martin Keown
Former England defender on BBC Final Score
It should have been a penalty for Watford. If we had VAR this season... that’s the only reason it hasn’t been given, they have got away with one there.
Andrew Robertson has no need to go for that, it’s quite high and catches Will Hughes on the shin. It’s not a sending off but it should have been a penalty.
Watford 0-0 Liverpool
That's a yellow all day long.
Newly arrived Isaac Success runs the Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson, who doesn't fancy the chase and just hauls the Watford forward to the ground.
Watford 0-0 Liverpool
First change of the day and it comes for Watford with Isaac Success replacing Gerard Deulofeu.
Watford 0-0 Liverpool
Brief bit of possession from the hosts and it ends with a penalty shout for them.
Will Hughes goes down after a challenge from Andy Robertson - rather softly it has to be said. But his case is helped by Robertson completely missing the ball and appearing to rattle his shin pad.
Not a good look for a defender.
There's a few anxious glances towards referee Jonathan Moss, but he waves play on.
Nothing doing for Watford.
Watford 0-0 Liverpool
Liverpool suddenly find some cutting edge but Sadio Mane is offside as he smashes the ball against the Watford post.
Jurgen Klopp will want a bit more of that. He's pacing around the technical area like he's in a doctor's waiting room at the moment.
Watford 0-0 Liverpool
Liverpool are knocking the ball about comfortably again at the start of this half but it's pretty sedate stuff. Serious lack of tempo.
Watford 0-0 Liverpool
No changes at half-time from either manager. So it's as you were.
Watford 0-0 Liverpool
And we're back underway.
Watford 0-0 Liverpool
As you can see, Liverpool have absolutely dominated possession but they have looked pretty sketchy at the back at times during the first half, giving Watford plenty of encouragement.
They need to raise things in the second half to even think about trying to keep pace with Premier League champions Manchester City at the top of the table.
