Liverpool have played the same if not more games, watching them now they dont seem tired at all - better players? better management?
Perhaps one factor is that they have older players who have learned better how to manage their exertion over the course of a strenuous season. Our spine is full of first-full-year players: Dier, Mason, Bentaleb & Kane.
And Liverpool's top 4 challenge petered out even before ours did, although they've found better form again recently. I'm not sure you can draw a meaningful distinction based on a 3 point gap over 32 matches.
