Liverpool delivered a composed performance in their victory over Brighton, with several players standing out on the day. Here’s how the Reds rated individually 👇

—

⭐ Hugo Ekitike – 9/10

Ekitike wasted absolutely no time making his mark. Finding the net inside the opening minute, the striker announced his presence with a ruthless finish. His movement caused constant problems for Brighton’s defence, and he capped off his display with a brilliant header to seal the win. A near-perfect afternoon.

—

⭐ Mohamed Salah – 8/10

A confident and influential return for the Egyptian King. Salah looked sharp throughout, drifting into dangerous areas and unlocking Brighton with his vision. His creativity paid off with a well-earned assist for Ekitike’s second goal.

—

⭐ Ibrahima Konaté – 8/10

A commanding performance at the heart of defence. Konaté dominated his duels, cleared his lines repeatedly, and read the game superbly. Strong, aggressive, and composed — a reminder of how important he is to Liverpool’s back line.

—

⭐ Florian Wirtz – 8/10

Still waiting for his goal, but his impact was undeniable. Wirtz dictated play high up the pitch, threading intelligent passes and creating multiple clear-cut chances. Energetic, clever, and constantly involved in Liverpool’s attacking rhythm.

—

⭐ Curtis Jones – 7.5/10

Another solid outing from the Scouser. Jones kept the midfield ticking, moved the ball forward with purpose, and disrupted Brighton’s attacks with timely interventions. Dependable and effective once again.

—

⭐ Ryan Gravenberch – 7.5/10

The Dutchman looked assured alongside Jones. He imposed himself physically, broke up play, and contributed going forward with neat distribution. A balanced and confident midfield display.
