Liverpool vs Chelsea full-time player ratings as Jones SHINES and defender DISAPPOINTS

Liverpool came away 2-1 winners when they faced Chelsea at Anfield. Another dominant attacking performance for the Reds

Here are our player ratings:

Kelleher- 7/10

Not overly tested but solid when called upon. His distribution has been sharp, only one remarkable save to deny Cole Palmer in the first-half.

Trent Alexander-Arnold - 7/10

Was strong defensively throughout the game, though has been tested on occasions by Chelsea's wingers. Was more attacking in the second half.

Ibrahima Konate - 6/10

Had a quiet game but did his job and remained a reliable presence at the back. Been composed on the ball and defended well.

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. Didn't really improve in the second half but made a crucial block in the dying seconds

Ryan Gravenberch- 7/10

Played 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

Worked hard in midfield but struggled to make a major impact on the game. Kept things simple in possession and pressed well, but lacked creativity and attacking intent. A steady performance

Curtis Jones- 8/10

Arguably been Liverpool's best player. 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. He's been involved in everything, supposedly playing in the deeper role, but he's got forward whenever he can. Scored an exceptional goal

Mohamed Salah- 8/10

Salah's caused problems for Chelsea’s defence with his pace and sharp runs. Scored an exceptional penalty. Secured an assist for Jones' goal.

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 was solid.

Substitions

Darwin Nunez (on for Jota 30')- 5/10

Struggled to impose himself on Chelsea’s defence. His finishing and link-up play have been below par. But he has worked hard defensively.

Luis Diaz (on for Gakpo 66')- 6/10

Maintained the energy down that left hand side. However didn't really impact the game in the attack.

Alexis Mac-Allister (on for Jones 80')- N/A

Was a doubt before the game but gained a few crucial minutes. Had a steady performance

Joe Gomez (on for Alexander-Arnold 80')- N/A

Gomez had little to do when he came on but put in a solid performance for the final 10 minutes.
