Liverpool v Sheffield United player ratings: Salah & Mane do the business
By David Gate
Player Ratings: Midfield
JORDAN HENDERSON. 8. This is perhaps the best run of form that the captain has had in a Liverpool shirt. He has been outstanding in all competitions over the last two months and his confidence is growing by the week. Another excellent display.. Midfielder. Liverpool
Defender. Liverpool. JAMES MILNER. 7.5. Thrown in at the last minute after Keita picked a groin strain in the pre-game warmup. Dependable, professional. Contributing greatly at both ends. Such a quality player to have in the squad. Played the last few minutes at left back after Robertson was replaced by Adam Lallana.
7.5. Not sure he knows what tiredness is. One of the fittest players on an incredibly fit side. Plaenty of work and running, mostly to drive Sheffield united back into their own half. Will earn a well deserved rest for the derby you’d expect.. Midfielder. Liverpool. GINI WIJNALDUM
