- 14 Jordan Henderson – 7
Passed the ball simply, and enjoyed the role of midfield general in Gerrard’s absence. He definitely should have scored in the first-half though, but missed a glorious chance from the edge of the area.
- 21 Lucas – 6
The Brazilian tackled well and made some crucial interceptions in midfield. Lucas has now made more tackles than any other player in the Premier League, and is essential to the Reds in protecting the back four.
- 10 Coutinho – 7
Like Henderson, Coutinho missed a guilt-edged chance in the first-half, but impressed everyone with his neat flicks, and clever vision. He almost scored a goal of the season contender late on, where he dribbled from his own half past four players, but was denied by a save from the Hull stopper.
