A masterclass from the Egyptian King. Salah became the first player in Premier League history to hit double figures in both goals and assists before Christmas, delivering effortlessly and sealing his place as a modern-day legend. Subbed off for Elliott after an unforgettable display.
Dominik Szoboszlai (9/10):
One of his finest displays for Liverpool, combining his physicality with attacking flair. Dominated the midfield, charged into the box with force, and left Spurs struggling to contain him.
Trent Alexander-Arnold (9/10):
Every pass and cross oozed precision and purpose. His assist epitomized his creativity, and his overall performance left fans in awe. Liverpool must secure his future quickly to avoid any risk of him leaving for Real Madrid.
Luis Díaz (9/10):
Capitalized on Tottenham’s high defensive line, opening the scoring with a clinical finish and tormenting defenders throughout the match. Subbed off late for Núñez after a stellar performance.
Ryan Gravenberch (8.5/10):
Completely dominated the midfield battle, shrugging off challenges with ease and dictating play. Tottenham’s players simply couldn’t match his strength and composure
Alexis Mac Allister (8/10):
Scored Liverpool’s second goal with composure, but a costly loss of possession led to Maddison’s strike. Still, it was a solid outing before being substituted for Jones with Liverpool in control at 5-1.
Joe Gomez (7/10):
Quietly dependable in Konaté’s absence. Dealt well with Son and provided steady cover for Alexander-Arnold.
Virgil van Dijk (6/10):
A steady if unspectacular performance. Criticism of his intensity may be harsh, as he wasn’t at fault for Spurs’ goals and kept things organized for much of the game.
Andy Robertson (6/10):
Balanced performance from the Scot. Delivered a superb cross for Mac Allister’s goal but allowed Johnson to win a key header for Solanke’s strike.
Alisson Becker (6/10):
Couldn’t do much to prevent Tottenham’s goals but made a stunning late save to deny Johnson and drew cheers for skillfully turning him earlier in the game.
Cody Gakpo (6/10):
Had a quiet outing, struggling to impact the game despite Liverpool’s dominance. Booked for a foul on Sarr and replaced by Jota.
Diogo Jota (6/10):
Came on as a substitute but didn’t contribute significantly to the attack.
Curtis Jones (6/10):
Maintained possession effectively in the later stages to help Liverpool see out the game.
Harvey Elliott (N/A):
Brought on late for Salah, with little time to influence proceedings.
Darwin Núñez (N/A):
Replaced Díaz but had minimal time to make an impact.
