Goalkeeper: Alisson – 7
The Brazilian had nothing to do all game.
Right back: Trent Alexander-Arnold – 7
Trent came on before half time and completely transformed the game with his delivery.
Centre back: Virgil van Dijk – 8
Our number four was impeccable as ever, pulling out a last ditch tackle to stop Dominic Solanke.
Centre back: Joe Gomez – 6.5
JoGo was solid when called upon but was sloppy in possession at times.
Left back: Andy Robertson – 7
Robbo was flying up and down the wing without any trouble.
Defensive midfield: Jordan Henderson – 7
Our skipper pulled out a tremendous assist for The Ox’s goal.
Defensive midfield: James Milner – 7
Industrious and reliable as ever.
Attacking midfield: Naby Keita – 9
Naby came back into the side with a bang, his goal was a just reward for his positive football. His second half assist for Mo Salah was delectable. He thoroughly deserves A 9 in our Liverpool player ratings v Bournemouth.
Left wing: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain – 8
Yet another goal for The Ox, he was bright throughout.
Right wing: Mo Salah – 9
The Egyptian King was bright and creative, his back heel for Naby Keita was just *chef’s kiss*. The second half saw Mo grab his first away goal in the league this season.
Striker: Bobby Firmino – 6
The Brazilian was often missing throughout the game and missed some good opportunities for through balls.
