The Premier League began with a bang as Liverpool launched their title defence with a pulsating 4-3 win over new boys Leeds.

Despite the three points, manager Jurgen Klopp will have some defensive concerns with Leeds only two minutes away from taking points off the champions until Mohamed Salah completed his hat-trick from the penalty spot.

None of that seemed to matter as Liverpool took part in training for their next match, a potential thriller at Chelsea on Saturday.

Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and the rest of the Liverpool stars seemed relaxed as they laughed their way through a workout at Melwood.

Chelsea will have ambitions of their own on Saturday after a fine start to the season, winning 3-1 at Brighton.
