Mignolet - 5 - He needs to feel confident with his back four and communicate far more than he currently does .
Cissokho - 7 One of our top defenders last night ,which should mean a change in the type of critique he regularly receives.
Skrtel - 5 All over the shop ,is the kindest description I can proffer.
Toure - He wasn't even in the same shop as Skrtel
......cant help feeling for him though ,because his pain is visible.
Flanagan - 6 slip shod performance for the lad ,but still gave us more than Johnson.
Gerrard - 9 I thought in terms of application and the fight we want to see in our captain he was exceptional.
Henderson - 8 Runs himself into the ground for the shirt ,even when he's clearly struggling with form he masks it with his commitment.
Coutinho - 8 Lively ,and neatly taken goal ,he's slowly regaining the status that made his presence ominous for opposing teams.
Sterling - 6 Not as potent as a threat ,but defends like a little trojan at times.
Suarez - 8 The revival of the Bergkamp flick ....Only a few players exist in world football that would attempt such an extravagant move...we have one
Sturridge - 7 well taken goal ,and at the minute you cant ask for more than that ,but he was marked well for long periods of the game.
subs:
Texeria - 7 - Exciting times ahead.
Rodgers ,I think his faith in Toure must surely be on the wane after this ,and with Agger on the bench his inclusion was a massive call.
