He...

Newcastle 0 – 2 Liverpool – Man of the Match

Newcastle 0 - 2 Liverpool - Man of the Match   Alisson Becker   It is frustrating to have to award the man of the match to our keeper so often, but it is a pure indication of how utterly world class he is.   His decision making, rapid movement from his line, smothering of attackers, and clean handling are...

Liverpool 2 – 0 Everton PL Man of The Match

Liverpool 2 - 0 Everton PL Man of The Match   Darwin Nunez   From the opening whistle, you could see his powerful running was going to cause all sorts of issues.

Brighton 2 – 1 Liverpool – The FA Cup Man Of The Match

Brighton 2 - 1 Liverpool - The FA Cup Man Of The Match Stefan Bajčetić With a new long-term contract secured this week, it is a positive step for an underwhelming midfield. His composure, reading of the game, intelligence, and decision making is far beyond his tender years. In the middle of two controlling players, he offered...

Liverpool 0 – 0 Chelsea – PL Man of the Match

Liverpool 0 - 0 Chelsea - PL Man of the Match   Ibrahima Konate Ibou is every inch the Virgil successor, and his 6ft 4 inch frame continues to defy his tender years.

Brighton 3 - 0 Liverpool – Man of the Match Ibrahima Konate Only one man was able to stand up and be counted in this game. With a systematic failure now spreading all around him, Ibou was at least able to show the fight, determination and spirit that is yet to be drained from him. With a...

Liverpool 2 – 2 Wolves – FA Cup Man of the Match 

Liverpool 2 - 2 Wolves - FA Cup Man of the Match    Mohamed Salah   His overall contribution to this game was nowhere near his best level, yet his goal and willingness to try and create moments shone amongst a sporadic team effort.   The touch, awareness, clinical finish, and reliability allowed us to take the lead.

Liverpool 3 – 1 Southampton – Man Of The Match

Alisson Becker I don’t really like the fact that our goalkeeper is getting so many man of the matches this season, but as long as we win, I’ll keep awarding it. Alisson is the best keeper this Premier League has ever seen, and the giant Brazilian just allows us to be impenetrable at times. We have...
