League Cup
Starting XI Caoimhin Kelleher – 8.0 Was a bystander for much of the first half, with just a dodgy back pass by his captain causing issue in the opening 45 mins. Was called into action more in the second half, but was very assured in his work. Calvin Ramsey – 8.0 Was solid through the […]
Liverpool 0 – 0 Derby County – EFL Cup Man Of The Match Calvin Ramsey Showed really good drive and strength on his first start. A brilliant engine, coupled with great decisions on and off the ball. Never seemed fazed by the atmosphere, and linked up really well with the forward players. Even had a […]

After an absolutely amazing 120 minutes ended 0-0, Kepa Arrizabalaga blazed the 22nd penalty of an incredible shootout over the bar, to give Jurgen Klopp his first domestic cup as manager of Liverpool.
