Pundits have hailed it as the finest Merseyside derby in years; yet the six goal thriller whilst a joy to watch, will have left both Roberto Martinez and Kop boss Brendan Rodgers disappointed they didn't walk away with all three points.

In the midst of the latest in a seemingly never ending series of International breaks, the Anfield Index staff got together and decided to take a look at Liverpool's season so far.
