Mamadou Sakho – 6

Mamadou Sakho was sloppy against Stoke. He made some crucial blocks, and performed well enough not to concede more despite Alberto Moreno leaving him exposed, but he gave the ball away far too often. The Sakho who was previously slated because of his silly passing and loss of possession returned for just one night.

His outstanding defensive abilities remained, apart from the moment he stepped up to allow and offside Marko Arnautovic to get Stoke that equalizer.
