Burnley 0-1 Liverpool: Player ratings from a stereotypical Turf Moor triumph

Liverpool 3-0 Leicester: Player ratings as Reds make more history

Liverpool have extended their home unbeaten run into club-record territory following a hugely impressive victory against high-flying Leicester.

But the Reds scoffed at that suggestion, powering to victory with strikes from Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino after a Jonny Evans own goal. Here's how they rated.

Liverpool move onto 6 points from the first 2 games of the 2020/21 Premier League season with a 2-0 win against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. A red card late in the first half made it a simple victory for the Reds but, in truth, we’d have gone on to win comfortably either way.

Player Ratings for Arsenal 2-1 Liverpool

Player Ratings for Arsenal 2-1 Liverpool

Liverpool started the match by having the run of play and were deservedly in the lead, but their sloppiness soon led to madness as two absurd mistakes by world class players ruined the match and ended Liverpool’s bid to eclipse City’s points record. Alisson – 4 His costly howler gifted Arsenal the lead that they wouldn’t relinquish. An abnormally poor match from a player considered by many to be the best keeper in the world. Robbo – 6 Was instrumental …
