Liverpool
Simon Mignolet – 3.5/5
Solid, commanding, and cat like in his reflex saves from Rooney. Will prove to be a brilliant purchase.
Kolo Toure – 3/5
A little slow at times but otherwise solid.
Jose Enrique – 3/5
Got into some excellent positions but was let down by his delivery.
Mamadou Sakho – 2.5/5
Looked off the pace at times. Still adapting to the speed of the English game.
Martin Skrtel – 3/5
The middle of the back three. Looked dominant in the air but struggled to play the ball on the ground.
Steven Gerrard – 3/5
A slightly stagnated showing from the skipper. Looked tired.
Jordan Henderson – 3/5
Deployed at right wing-back but was wasteful with Liverpool’s best chance. Moved back into the middle late on.
Lucas – 2.5/5
Devoid of energy but had an uncanny sense for interceptions.
Victor Moses – 2.5/5
Looked lost and ineffective, was subbed late on.
Daniel Sturridge – 2/5
Seemed to be hampered by the presence of Suarez. Struggled to keep hold of the ball or be in the right place for a pass.
Luis Suarez – 3.5/5
Lively and troublesome. Looked eager but rusty. Hit the bar late on and looks to be keen to make up for lost time.
Substitutions
Martin Kelly – Slotted in to the game well late on.
Raheem Sterling – Also came on late, did nothing.
