"Alisson Becker - 6/10 Not much to do for the Brazilian on the afternoon, so it's hard to go much higher. Did his best to spring a drab Liverpool into life with his distribution. Dominik Szoboszlai - 7/10 Continued his run of matches at right-back. Did what was asked of him and was more influential as the match continued on, especially with the introductions of Conor Bradley and Jeremie Frimpong allowing for him to move into midfield."
"Ryan Gravenberch - 8/10 The standout performer for Liverpool on the day. Feels hardly a coincidence that, after likely using Newcastle as an opportunity to fully regain his legs and fitness, Liverpool have looked much more resolute and organized following his return from suspension. Alexis Mac Allister - 6/10 Still seems off the pace physically. Fortunate to not have his leg snapped by Ugochukwu."
Liverpool maintained a perfect Premier League start thanks to a stoppage-time Mohamed Salah penalty that rescued a turgid display. Several players produced mixed contributions across the lineup. Alisson had little to do but offered useful distribution. Dominik Szoboszlai continued at right-back before moving into midfield and grew more influential as the match progressed. Ibrahima Konate missed a significant first-half chance. Virgil van Dijk dominated aerially, winning all his duels. Milos Kerkez struggled, earned a yellow for simulation, and was withdrawn in the first half amid concerns over a potential dismissal. Ryan Gravenberch stood out after returning from suspension.
