Alisson – 7.5Again not much to do but an important save early on ensured Liverpool remained level. Really not much on apart from that, a late save from Ibe and that was about it. Clean sheet for the first time in a few games. Let’s have another v Bayern!Milner – 7.5Class again. Played most of the game at right back then shifted into the midfield. Quality in his passing again. An assist for Sadio and another hard shift put in. Well in Milly.Matip – 7.5Sometimes people lose their head when they see Joel on the team sheet but he’s been pretty decent. Passing cut out the midfield, his mazy runs frees others up and defensively he put in some important challenges. Big Virg – 7.5Ohhhh I wanted him to score. Why didn’t Bobby square it?! Seemed a little quiet today but only because he had so little to do. And when he has stuff to do, he makes it look so easy! Get to put his feet up for a while now. He deserves it.

Robertson – 7.5OHHHHHH ANDY, ANDY!! Another terrific performance from Robbo. Back bombing up and down that left wing, passing back on point and some quality defending. Standard Robbo back in business. Fabinho – 8.5Just a unit isn’t he. Judo chopped Calum Fraser in the head early doors, just to let him know he’s there. Happy days. Dominated the midfield for me and plays so much better in a two. Throws himself into challenges and shouldn’t win half of them. Composed on the ball and sprays passes for shits and giggles.Gini – 8.5Holy shitballs! Where did that finish come from!? FUCKING FILTH. I’ll be finding a replay on Pornhub later….or Bournehub. See what I did. Outstanding performance from Gini yet again, so underrated and easily missed. Solid defensively too.

Keita – 8One of his best games in Liverpool for shirt for me. Gini and Fabinho allowed him to go forward, to not worry about his defensive duty’s, to play intricate football. His pass in the build up to the third goal was filthy too, outside of the boot, put me down for more of that.Mane – 8Carried on his fine form and ran the defence ragged and got the crucial first goal. And what a finish it was. Rocket header down into the ground. Keeper had no chance.Salah – 8Took his goal really well, hit the bar, forced the keeper into a belting save. Not sure what else you can ask for. His interplay with Bobby on more that one occasion was just sublime and a joy to watch.

Firmino – 8The Bobby we know and love. Had the freedom up front to pop up in space and just piss the Bournemouth back four off if we are being honest. Face of an angel, touch of a highly paid masseur. Some of his footwork is worth the ticket alone. Selfless as always. Let me know your thoughts below! 16+ PODCASTS P/MONTH
