# Liverpool player ratings: Brighton (H)

Liverpool remain undefeated after securing a 1-0 win over Brighton at Anfield.

A lone Mohamed Salah goal was enough for the Reds, who did look nervy come the end of the game.

Here’s how we rated the Reds.

**Alisson – 8**

Made some key saves, keeping out the Seagulls. Showing his worth already.

**Trent Alexander Arnold – 7**

Another impressive display from the youngster But not a standout one from his collection of solid appearances.

**Virgil van Dijk – 7**

Solid, with another clean sheet.

**Joe Gomez – 7**

Forming an effective partnership with Van Dijk now. Pushing for England spot.

**Andy Robertson – 7**

Did very well, played effectively as a wing back essentially..

**Gini Wijnaldum – 7**

Had some nice touches in midfield. Kept things ticking over.

**Naby Keita – 7**

Played his role very effectively. Top signing for the reds.

**James Milner – 7**

Crossing very effective, but saw some rough challenges.

**Sadio Mane – 5**

Was unable to get much space. Could’ve done more.

**Roberto Firmino – 6**

Only one of the front three without a goal. Brighton’s tactics limited the Brazilians effectiveness.

**Mohamed Salah – 7**

Scored a goal but could’ve done a lot more. Finish was outstanding in fairness.

Subs:

Daniel Sturridge – 5

Jordan Henderson – 5

Joel Matip – N/A
