WINNERS

Alexis Mac Allister and Trent Alexander-Arnold did their best in possession but Liverpool really struggled to create anything against the Everton low block.



Could perhaps have done better with the opening goal.

Trent Alexander-Arnold — 6

Like the rest of the Liverpool team, Alexander-Arnold struggled to get into many promising positions because of the lack of space on the pitch.

Van Dijk wanted him to move the ball quicker at times but simply doing it more accurately would have been a good start.

Virgil van Dijk — 6

Booked for berating the referee and while he was probably right, that didn't help in terms of Liverpool keeping its cool.

It only served to increase the atmosphere inside Goodison Park even further.

Andy Robertson — 6

Got the wrong side of Jack Harrison a couple of times but his subsequent cross was hit into an area rather than to a specific player.

Ended up frustrating himself as he so often has in recent appearances for Liverpool.

Alexis Mac Allister — 6

Got the ball stuck under his feet a couple of times and struggled to find space to operate in.

The Greek presumably came on to give Robertson a rest ahead of the weekend.

Joe Gomez — 6

Brought on to replace Alexander-Arnold, Liverpool missed its vice-captain's ability to get on the ball
