Liverpool player ratings: Liverpool v West Brom – Dec 13 2017

5. Started on the right in a 442 before moving to left forward as we reverted to 433 in the second half. Had a great opportunity on the counter attack in the first half but his first time pass was to weak. Then had a chance in the second that he fizzed wide. Had his poor night cut short as Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain got his custom 15 minute cameo.. RIght Midfield. Liverpool. SADIO MANE

5. Emre Can came back in today after some rumors that he has already provisionally agreed a move to Juventus in the summer. He played like a man whose heart is not 100% in it this evening.. Center Midfield. Liverpool. EMRE CAN

5. Took him an hour to warm up. Much more comfortable in a midfield three than as a two. He gets caught in a kind of limbo in a pairing; neither defending or attacking according to his instincts. Made way for Dominic Solanke after 75 minutes as Liverpool looked for a winner.. Center Midfield. Liverpool. GINI WIJNALDUM

PHILIPPE COUTINHO. 6. This reminded me of the Man Utd game for Coutinho. The West Brom side made a concerted effort to reduce his influence; closing him down and cutting his space to move. It was largely effective. A quiet night for the Brazilian.. Left Midfield. Liverpool
