James Milner was given Man of the Match v Brighton, but we actually think Gini Wijnaldum was the best Red on the pitch.

Alisson got credit for his flick and Mo Salah’s goal was a thing of beauty, but the Dutchman was our metronome!
Below, you’ll see Gini give the ball away just once all game – while making some smart runs, tackles, and as per usual – use his body tremendously to shield possession and take opponents out of the game.
Hardly any Red believed Wijnaldum would be one of the first names on our team-sheet this season, especially following the signings of Naby Keita and Fabinho – but right now – the no.6 role is his to lose.
