Forward

Divock Origi. 6. He doesn’t get an assist officially, but he drew the penalty that Mohamed Salah converted. That’s worth something. He only had one shot attempt (it was on target) so if not for a big stop from Fabianski Liverpool could have been up 3-0 at the end of the day. But with a team-low 68.8 percent passer rating it’s hard to give him a rating that’s any higher than six.. .

. Roberto Firmino. 6. Firmino was fine against West Ham. He did well to link-up play from the middle of the park to the forward line. He had a shot on target (two shots towards the net), one key pass, and an 82.7 percent passer rating..

9. With the penalty, Salah now leads Liverpool in goals with 12 on the season. Add an assist on Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s goal, hitting the woodwork, five shots towards West Ham’s goal (one on target), two key passes and an accurate through ball (the one that connected with Ox for the second goal) all add up to another top-class performance from Salah.. . . Mohamed Salah

Subs

. Fabinho. 6. Fabinho was brought on for Divock Origi in the 68th minute by Klopp. At that point, 2-0 up, the Manager wanted to close out the game by tossing on “Dyson” to clean up any mess in the middle of the park for the Reds. He put in two tackles as he did his best to secure the win..
