LORIS KARIUS 6

His big chance but beaten at his near post for Sane's leveller. No real chance with the second or third. Generally did well getting off his line quickly to collect balls into the box though.

JOE GOMEZ 7

A good comeback second half to a bad mistake in the first. Sane megged him early and then he fatally got under the Walker pass which allowed Sane to cut in and score. Just got to cut out these errors but so much potential.

ANDY ROBERTSON 9

Another magnificent display. Sterling was a threat first half but left a beaten man thanks to the Scot's sheer energy and talent. Keen to take on the whole City defence himself in one genius moment second half.

JOEL MATIP 7

Did well to block an Aguero shot and then ease the Argentinian off the ball in front of the Kop. Got toes and legs in when required on lots of occasions though wasn't able to get round to cover for that Gomez error for City's goal.

DEJAN LOVREN 7

Van Dijk's absence was a concern for many but Lovren was on a decent going day. Stepped out really well for couple of early interceptions and won some important balls. Got under the ball for Gundogan's late third but wore the armband well.

EMRE CAN 8

Absolutely rock solid throughout the game and especially important setting the tone for first 15 minutes. Big games tend to suit him best and they are where we will miss him most if he departs.

ALEX OXLADE-CHAMBERLAIN 9

Marvellous drive forward and decisive low shot to put Reds ahead early. Pace and energy throughout the game. Came to Anfield to start games like these and showing he deserves to. No-ones doubting him now.

GINI WIJNALDUM 9

So often in the right place and so often strong on the ball to hold off challenges and set Liverpool on their way. Delivered a perfect pull-back first half which Mane didn't anticipate. His best game of the season by a long way.

SADIO MANE 8

Just wait until he's in form eh? A difficult first half when he couldn't take early Firmino flick in his stride or might have been away. Delivered a delicious blast for Liverpool's third, his ninth of the season.

ROBERTO FIRMINO 8

Scored maybe the game's most important goal with the second, a lovely chip after holding off Stones. Nice early flick almost got Mane away and had a header just past the post. Saw lots more of ball second half and didn't seem to miss his mate.

MOHAMED SALAH 8

Goal number 24 in the bag. Just your standard 40-yarder into an open goal with the goalkeeper off his line. Always a threat to City's backline, his astonishing season goes on.

SUBS

JAMES MILNER (for Emre Can) 6

Got the nervy bit. But they got over the line

ADAM LALLANA (for Mo Salah, 88) N/A

He'll have plenty of other chances. Just a few minutes today.

RAGNAR KLAVAN (for Sadio Mane) N/A

Basically came on for one free-kick and didn't get a kick.
