AMC) Coutinho – 8
The Brazilian registered two assists in a creatively strong display – with the back heel for Sturridge’s second especially easy on the eye.
FC) Danny Ings – 7
Linked up really well with Sturridge, in what could be a very promising partnership. Made clever runs, too.
FC) Daniel Sturridge – 9 (Allen 94′)
How good is it to have the striker back in action…? Two goals, both expertly taken, won us the game today. When fit and firing, he’s as good as anyone in the league. Let’s just pray he stays healthy.
