Kelleher- 6/10

Not overly tested but solid when called upon. His distribution has been sharp, only one remarkable save so far to deny Cole Palmer.

Trent Alexander-Arnold - 6/10

Been defensively sound so far, those has been tested on occasions by Chelsea's wingers. Yet to see him deliver his usual attacking prowess.

Ibrahima Konate - 6/10

Had a quiet first half but remained a reliable presence at the back. Been composed on the ball.

Virgil van Dijk- 7/10

Commanding as usual from the captain. He's defended well, cutting out any threatening attacks from Enzo Maresca's side His passing from the back has been crucial in starting Liverpool’s attacks.

Andy Robertson- 4/10

Been incredibly poor down that left-hand side. Caught out on numerous occasions and doesn't seem to have his head in the game. Perhaps a change will be needed at half-time

Ryan Gravenberch- 7/10

Playing a key role in Liverpool’s midfield control, distributing the ball effectively and breaking up play. The Dutchman is certainly adding to his impressive form.

Dominik Szoboszlai - 6/10

Good energy and pressing in midfield, but he hasn’t been as involved in Liverpool’s attacking play as he could be. Needs to assert himself more in the second half.

Curtis Jones- 7/10

Curtis Jones has had a good first half both on and off the ball. Won the penalty and has won 100 percent of his duels so far. Though he won a second penalty which was later overturned by VAR. Need more of the same in the second half.

Mohamed Salah- 8/10

Salah's looked dangerous so far. Salah has caused problems for Chelsea’s defence with his pace and sharp runs. Scored an exceptional penalty.

Diogo Jota- 5/10

Forced off early on through injury. Didn't make too much of an impact.

Cody Gakpo- 7/10

Gakpo has been strong down that left flank, getting past Reece James on multiple occasions. Had an excellent shot on goal which was ruled out for offside. His performance has been solid so far.

Darwin Nunez- on for Jota- 5/10

Struggled to impose himself on Chelsea’s defence. His finishing and link-up play have been below par.
