Chelsea striker and Eurosport blogger Nicolas Anelka wants his side to show title-rivals Liverpool who is boss when they clash in the Premier League on Sunday.
  














"This weekend we play Liverpool, which will be yet another big test after the Roma match.
Both us and the Reds have started the season well and we are joint top of the league, although we have a better goal difference and at the moment are playing the better football.
We have played really very well in the past three matches. We beat Aston Villa 2-0 but it really should have been more, and we followed it up by scoring five goals at Middlesbrough, which is a difficult place to go. And Roma was a tough match but we controlled it well and won it thanks to John Terry.
Above all it is the quality of the players and our ability to pass and move with and without the ball that is making the difference.
The style of play that Luiz Felipe Scolari has brought with him is better quality than before. We keep it one- or two-touch, have lots of movement off the ball and because of that the football is much more attractive.
We are scoring more goals too, compared to previous years.
We have to use this match to show Liverpool - and everyone else - that we are the number one side in England.
This match is very important for the rest of the season and for the title race.
Not just because it is a six-pointer but because, right now, Liverpool currently have some injury problems like us so we are on a level playing field in this regard.
What Liverpool have shown this season that differs from before is that they can play relatively poorly but still come back from behind and win matches in the final minutes.
I think they have scored more goals in the last 20 minutes of matches than at any other time!
Whether this is due to good stamina, mental strength, or both I do not know - but the fact is that they have done this several times so far this season.
Most recently they did it last weekend when they came from behind to beat Wigan with two late goals to win 3-2.
But, without meaning to put anyone down, they have mostly done this against mid-table sides.
Against us it will be different, especially with how we have been playing recently. And Atletico Madrid showed that you can get late goals against them too.
So Liverpool, as well as us, are going to have to be vigilant until the final whistle."
