Throughout the tightly contested league opener, Salah justified the widespread desire to keep him at the club for years to come. Without the three points, it's harder to relish an impressive display, but an assist and a goal was enough to salvage a point and perhaps catch the imagination of supporters wondering what the...
Thiago Alcantara
One of the best midfielders to ever grace the game, and he was on another level once again yesterday. His control of tempo and space is unparalleled, with everyone now willing to work to his pace.
When the game required possession, Thiago reacted. When the game required a game-breaking pass, Thiago reacted....
Luis Diaz
A wonderfully technical player, his skill set in possession was simply superb at times. His tenacious nature grew through the first half, as neat possession started to grow into brilliant penetration. The first half was a frustration for the reds, but it was clear that Diaz would be relied upon to keep the...
Villarreal 2 - 3 Liverpool - Man Of The Match
Luis Diaz
He changed the game, and is still pushing to become Liverpools most important forward.
He came on after an horrendous first half, and forced the Spanish back line to stretch as he hugged the far touchline. He threatened and threatened, and finally got his goal...
Naby Keita
It’s amazing that he’s Liverpool’s third best midfielder this season, with such a brilliant term of form.
He kept things ticking today, was efficient in possession, and pressed whenever it was required. Such a balanced player, that simply has to play when Thiago does not.
The goal was critical, and he took it like...
Liverpool 3 - 2 Man City - The Man Of The Match - FA Cup Semi Final
Sadio Mane
In a period where questions surround Sadio’s future, he seems to have reinvented himself after the arrival of Luis Diaz. His contract is quickly reducing, and soon mist come the decision as to stick or twist with...
Luis Diaz
This could well have gone to Ibrahima Konate, if not for the mistake and brief period of poor play at the start of the second half. The man of the match must however go to a player that was at times unplayable, and perhaps the man that has decided the tie.
Luis Diaz...
Luis Diaz
The South American flyer was at times sensational today, and has quickly become a player that the fans adore. His unpredictable nature, movement of the ball and ability to engage defenders was very much apparent today.
He scored a goal, could have had more, could have been supplied more efficiently & was a creative...
Liverpool 1 - 0 West Ham - Man of the Match
Andy Robertson
The Scot was on hand to nullify two glorious opportunities for West Ham, with Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio shots blocked at close range. In a performance where his crossing was probably not at its best, Robbo’s defensive display and energy on the...
The dreaded Wednesday night/Saturday lunchtime turnaround. Crystal Palace away. No victories on the road since September. The top scorer starting on the bench. A lethargic performance was surely in the offing.
But no. Liverpool dismantled Crystal Palace in a fashion that was almost laughable. Symbolic redemption for their humiliation at Villa Park, this victory moves...
