Liverpool Players Rated In Their Win Against Brentford
Alisson Becker (6/10) – Didn’t have much to do and had a decent outing.
Trent Alexander-Arnold (7/10) – Defended with all his heart and also marked a notable presence in the midfield apart from getting an assist to his name.
Ibrahima Konate (6/10) – Did enough to keep things tight at the backline.
Virgil van Dijk (7/10) – Composed, leadership, and resistance as everyone expects from him.
Kostas Tsimikas (5/10) – Wasted another opportunity to solidify his spot in the starting lineup.
Ryan Gravenberch (7/10) – Did well to beat the opponent’s press but couldn’t extract something productive out of it.
Alexis Mac Allister (6/10) – A mixed performance with nothing to highlight.
Dominik Szoboszlai (6/10) – Was unfortunate to hit the crossbar but no special moment apart from that.
Mohamed Salah (7/10) – Created a hefty amount of chances and lacked the sharpness to bury them himself.
Luis Diaz (4/10) – An off day at the office for the striker.
Cody Gakpo (5/10) – Could’ve found himself on the scoresheet had he not missed a one-on-one situation.
Darwin Nunez (9/10) – Came out onto the field with one mission, which he did perfectly today.
