Ratings:
Migs: I thought he looked shaky a couple of times and Klopp was rightly furious at some of his distribution but did come out and punch a couple of crackers. 6/10
Clyne: Better this game than last but that's because he had more defending to do, in attack he is still massively underwhelming but does occasionally hit a cracking ball in. 6.5/10
Matip: Despite not standing up better for their goal he was exceptional otherwise, awesome signing could easily become one of the top CBs in the league if not the best, really impressive. 8/10
Lovren: Got caught in midfield once early on but other than that had a brilliant game and finished a great chance with exceptional ease considering the difficulty. 8/10
Milner: Another truly impressive display at LB, really really encouraged by how he's played there the last twice. Was right up there for contender of MotM imo 8.5/10
Henderson: What can you say other than he looked like a true Liverpool Captain out there today. Led by example, looked like he meant business before the game and delivered almost flawlessly. Could have tracked Matip a bit better but that is a small criticism on his best performance in a red shirt in a long, long time and now that's 3 good performances on the bounce. Keep it up Hendo, massively impressed with that lad. 9/10
Wijnaldum: Another decent display by the lad, needs to just manage his passes a little better and we could have been in a few times. Love his late arrivals into the box though and doesn't mind putting himself around in the centre of the park. Looked like he might have been feeling the pace at the end of the game and justifiably so, we were all over Chelsea in there and it was something exceptional to say that Kante looked ordinary against our 3. 7.5/10
Lallana: I'm starting to love this lad in this position, aggression about his challenges, much less dithering on the ball and this is perhaps the player that people loved at the Saints because he was great again today. This is his natural position and I don't think anyone can budge him from it, well in Adam. 8/10
Coutinho: I didn't think he had the best game to be honest, great delivery for the goal but other than that I don't think he was involved enough and he looked visably disappointed coming off. I'd have Firmino back in his position without a shadow of doubt on their current form. 6/10
Mane: I love him, always happy to help out Clyne and bailed him out a couple of times with Hazard and he's always someone that people look to first to carry the ball. Outstanding player. 8/10
Sturridge: Wasn't impressed with him personally, thought he looked off the pace and especially so in the second half. Didn't look too disappointed to be subbed so wondering if there was a bit of a niggle or not?! 6/10
Origi: Should have scored clearly and this is the 2nd time he's come on and been quite underwhelming, I wonder how far Ings is off from challenging him for the spot on the bench because this was disappointing from the young lad. 5/10
Jürgen: Brilliant, got it spot on and in that first half we could have been more than just 2 up. Definitely managed the game really well once it went to 2-1 and we had it well seen out by the end. Really impressive Jürgen, well in fella! 8/10
Well in fellas, top performance that.
