How did Liverpool players perform against Crystal Palace? Please listen to their ratings.

Goalkeeper and defender rating

Alison Becker

performed well below the goal line. Alisson Becker recorded at least three great saves. Including one-on-one with Mattha in the first half and a close-range save in the second half. He has no blame for two goals from Crystal Palace.

Jeremy Frimpon

has performed well in defense and offense. He managed to stop a major attack from Crystal Palace and then scored a very exciting goal, despite the luck. Jeremy Frimpon made a great appearance.

Ibrahima Konath

performed firmly enough to withstand the attacks of Mateta and Ez, although he received a yellow card himself. Since this is still his preparation phase before the league registration, it is understandable that Ibrahima Konath has not yet reached his best yet.

Virgil van Dick

Virgil van Dick played carelessly and made a mistake that led to Crystal Palace getting a penalty. He also was unable to coordinate with Milos Kerkeser, part of the responsibility was to create a second goal in Crystal Palace.

Milos Kekze

performs in a normal way on the left. He didn't seem to be fully adapted, especially his lack of understanding with his teammates on the defense, which led to several action mistakes from Isamela Sal. However, Milos Jekzez could make up for this by promptly blocking Thal.

Rating:

Alisson Becker: 7.5

Jeremy Frimpon: 8.5

Ibrahima Conat: 6.5

Virgil van Dick: 4.5

Milos Kekzer: 6

rating midfielder

Curtis Jones

As one of the double centers, he performed quite well. Curtis Jones replaced Ryan Gravenberger and brought vitality to the midfield. He has a good control over the ball and helps the midfield connect with the offensive line.

Dominic Schobashley

provides support for Liverpool's middle and cooperates with Coutis Jones quite well. He was pushed further when he was replaced by Alexis McAllister, but apparently he hadn't found his rhythm yet.

Florian Werz

is free to play on the field because he is given a free role. Whether he was dribbling or without the ball, his movements were excellent. Finally, he gave an assist before the end of the first half and was substituted.

Rating:

Curtis Jones: 6.5

Dominic Shoboschle: 6

Florian Wilz: 8

Forward rating

Cody Garkebo

appeared on the left. However, like some other players, Cody Garkepo has not yet found the best performance and has struggled to break through the Crystal Palace's defense.

Hugo Ekitic

took only four minutes and four touches, and Hugo Ekitic scored immediately in his official debut for Liverpool. He moves quickly and shows excellent finishing ability. Although he didn't play for 90 minutes, his performance was hopeful.

Mohamed Salah

Mohamed Salah was not doing well in this match. The Crystal Palace defender was very effective in limiting the Egyptian player's actions. He got a great goal chance before the end of the second half, but failed to maximize it because his ball was blocked by Dean Henderson.

Rating

Cody Gakpo: 5.5

Hugo Ekitic: 8.5

Mohamed Salah: 6

Substitute Player Rating

Alexis Mike Alister

Replacement Coutis Jones in the 71st minute. Failure to predict the opponent's high altitude ball led to Isamela Sal's chance.

Endo Tora

played in the 71st minute and replaced Hugo Ekitic. It was pretty good on defense, although not particularly good.

Harvey Elliot

came on the court in the 84th minute to replace Florian Wilz. Working to add to Liverpool's offense, but unfortunately, Harvey Elliott failed to have the expected impact on Arne Slott.

Andrew Robertson

took the field to replace Milos Claze in the 84th minute. Although there is not much forward performance, it enhances the stability of the defense.

Rating:

Alexis McAlister: 5

Endo Tsu: 6

Harvey Elliott: 5

Andrew Robertson: 6
