Crystal Palace 1 – 3 Liverpool – The Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 8.5 Outstanding reactions and moments of class. The tough stuff is done brilliantly, and the routine bits see complete assurance, and this sets him apart. Trent Alexander Arnold - 7.0 Tough to replicate Thursday's performance, against one of London’s stronger teams. His control of tempo and creation in the first half was still very...

Arsenal 0 – 2 Liverpool – The Player Ratings

Caoimhin Kelleher - 7.0 A good first half, with lots of possession against Arsenals press. Solid composure under pressure, and another good outing. Trent Alexander Arnold - 9.0 A great moment for the opening goal, and the playmaker is looking imperious on the ball. Gave good solidity at the back, and tracked runners well. Kept sliding into...

Liverpool 3 – 0 Brentford – The Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 7.0 A couple of good stops aside, it was pretty routine for the big Brazilian. Strong when collecting the ball, and another clean sheet. Trent Alexander Arnold - 7.0 Looks like he’s missing is right hand partner Mo, and was sometimes forcing the cross into a crowded area. A solid overall game, but always...

Tottenham 2 – 2 Liverpool – The Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 6.5 Some good saves early on (and later from Kane), but a misjudged attempt on the approaching Son gifted an empty net. Needed a little more protection at times. Trent Alexander Arnold - 8.0 The world's best full back was very good across the pitch, and almost sensational in front of goal once more....

Liverpool 1 – 0 Aston Villa- The Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 5.5 Long stretches of inactivity and some hairy moments led to an up and down afternoon. If these suspect moments see a clean sheet and a probable kick start ensue (before the next run of games), then that’s just fine. Trent Alexander Arnold - 7.5 The low blocks and overloading of Gerrard’s Villa frustrated,...

AC Milan 1-2 Liverpool: Player ratings

Liverpool became the first English team to win all six of their Champions League group stage matches by beating AC Milan 2-1 at the San Siro. The Reds must have felt almost guilty as they crushed Milan's Round of 16 dream even after making nine changes from the weekend's win over Wolves. Fikayo Tomori had put...

Wolves 0 – 1 Liverpool – The Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 7.5 Did everything well, and the few chances that came Wolves' way, were dealt with in a usual fashion. Trent Alexander Arnold - 7.0 Struggled with the deep block and defensive overload, but had next to no issues defensively. A good game, and always frustrating when opposing teams are so organised. Andy Robertson - 7.5 Kept...

Liverpool vs Brighton – Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 7.5 So dominant and was once again important to his team. The first goal was pin point precision in it’s trajectory, and would’ve been tough to stop even if not lost in the sun. Trent Alexander Arnold - 6.0 An unsure performance. A new inside centre back (Konate) and the ever revolving midfield...

Atletico Madrid v Liverpool – Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 8.0 Where Caoimhin Kelleher did nothing wrong, Alisson is a world class asset & his authority showed tonight. He brought assurance and dominance into a big match, and that showed. Some crucial saves kept Liverpool in the game on the first half. His ability to smother on coming forwards is the best...

Liverpool 3-2 Milan: Player ratings as Reds wrestle back three points

When Liverpool win their opening Champions League group game 3-2 at Anfield, it tends to be good omen. This was a game that got the juices flowing in a similar vein to that victory over Paris Saint-Germain three years ago, except this time the scoreline gave it the illusion of a contest. Thanks to a Jordan...
