It is a sign of the changing face of football in this country that the match between Liverpool and Manchester City was seen as much as a clash between two coaches as it was between two groups of players.
The media narrative surrounding the match painted this as the first time that Jurgen Klopp and...
Liverpool's 1-0 victory over Manchester City was a big step in their title bid, confirming the progress they have made this season.
Simon Mignolet - 7

The last five league matches provide something of a snapshot of the season so far for Liverpool. There has been the good, 4-1 against Stoke 1-0 against Everton and 3-0 against Middlesbrough, the bad, a draw against West Ham and the downright ugly as Bournemouth came out with a 4-3 win.
