This is probably the cumulatively lowest we’ve ever ranked a Liverpool side since we’ve been doing payer ratings on Empire of the Kop.
Let that sink in. We’ve probably been kind, too.
Mignolet – 6/10 – Can’t be blamed for the goals – but get this: the past five shots on target Mignolet has faced, we’ve conceded.
Clyne – 3/10 – Horrible outing. At fault for first goal and offered nothing going forward.
Milner – 4/10 – Kept cutting back on his right-foot and slowing the game down. But he’s not a left-back.
Klavan – 4/10 – Slow, ponderous. Stepped out of defence for Burnley’s second and didn’t make the tackle when recovering either.
Lovren – 6/10 – Some decent tackles, but turned his back for Burnley’s second.
Henderson – 3/10 – Not a deep-lying playmaker. Poor in every sense of the word.
Wijnaldum – 4/10 – Just as bad as Henderson. Sloppy on the ball.
Lallana – 6/10 – Nice feet on a few occasions, but to little avail.
Sturridge – 3/10 – Started on the right wing and slowed the game down for us. When moved centrally, did nothing. Creatively invisible.
Coutinho – 6/10 – Tried to make things happen, but ended up just curling shots over the bar from range.
Firmino – 3/10 – Ghastly performance from the Brazilian. Offered nothing in attack and gave the ball away relentlessly.
SUBS:
Moreno – 5/10 – Delivered a few balls with his left.
Origi – 5/10 – More running than Sturrdge.
Grujic – 5/10 – One shot curled over.
