Red Bull Salzburg 0-2 Liverpool | Player Ratings

Ross – @rossic89 YESSSSS!!! Into the last 16, top of that table, a clean sheet and some quality football for the reds. Never in doubt really was it. Alisson – 9 Beautiful, big-bearded, bastard. Comes up with the goods time and time again. Last year it was Napoli, this time it’s Salzburg. Wonderful double save in the first half to keep in 0-0. Trent – 8 Really think he could slice anything open with those passes you know. Tracked back well as we defended in numbers and playing with bags of confidence. Lovren  – 7 Thought he dealt with everything really well before going off. Could possibly give him an 8. Shame to see him go off again. Fingers crossed he’s ok in the next few weeks. van Dijk – 10 I cannot explain to you how much I love this fella. Dominated everything. EVERYTHING. He makes it look so easy so I won’t take it for granted. Warrior. [THIS IS COPY AND PASTED FROM BOURNEMOUTH – HE’S THAT GOOD] Robertson – 8 Superb in the first half and a crucial part to our build up play which paid dividends in the second half. Reckon he should release his food regime as a Christmas book, where the fuck does he get all that energy from?! Hendo – 9 Imperious again from Hendo, putting out fires left, right and centre. Constantly at the opposition players, putting them under pressure and composed in the middle of a congested midfield area.

Keita – 10 I mean. Fucking hell. He’s a bit boss isn’t he? Possibly his best performance as a Liverpool player for me. Some finish for the goal, leaping like an absolute salmon and slotting it in-between two desperate defenders. Hero. 80% passing 2 chances created 4/4 dribbles 3/6 tackles – joint most for #LFC 3 shots 1 goal Gini – 8 A solid performance from Gini, I can’t tell you how much I love him protecting the ball and shielding people away to then play a simple 5 yard pass, composed as fuck. Relentless running, even in th Mané – 10 I can’t give him anything else really. How many times does the fella look like he’s a man on an absolute mission to conquer the world. A joy to watch week in, week out. Beautiful deft chip to assist Naby and send Liverpool into the last 16. Bobby – 7 Very quiet in the first half but dropped deeper in the second when we switched formation and got himself on the ball. Will have been disappointed to come off there. Looks like he needs a goal under his belt. Three against Watford at the weekend, yeah? Salah – 10 Oh my fucking word. The man has a load of chances and it looks like it’s going to be one of those. Then he gets into a position where you think “what the fuck are you doing lad?” and he slots it home. Well in, Mo.

Subs Gomez – 7 Much better at centre back and he had to adapt to the game quickly. Salzburg are no mugs. Hopefully a run of games for him now which should give him confidence to hit the form he had last season. Milner – 7 Just what you want when you are 2-0 up. A composed, experienced, level-headed Yorkshire fella keeping it calm. Origi – 6 Wasn’t on long but did what was required! Let me know your thoughts on the game below! Ross – @rossic89
