After three months of the season, Liverpool fans have little to gripe about regarding Jurgen Klopp’s revamped squad.

The Reds have climbed to second place in the Premier League table, one point behind Manchester City, and are also in the quarterfinals of the League Cup and nearly guaranteed to advance to the Europa League’s knockout rounds.

Although several players have contributed to the team’s success, some new additions and other veterans have struggled to make an immediate impact.

The ECHO has given a rating out of ten for each player who has played at least 15 minutes in any of Liverpool’s 18 games this season across all competitions.

Here we use each player’s average rating from their first eight games to evaluate their season so far.

The men who have impressed

The importance of Liverpool’s Alisson Becker (average rating: 7.46), who made two crucial stops against Brentford on Sunday and has never been rated lower than a seven in any of his 13 games, was once again demonstrated.

Darwin Nunez (7.25), who has rarely been out of the attacking action, has put to rest any lingering doubts about his suitability for the Reds, and Dominik Szoboszlai (7.19), who has had a slight dip in performance since the last international break, has otherwise had an impressive start to life at Anfield.

Liverpool will be hoping Luis Diaz (7.00) can get back on track after his kidnapped father was released, and Virgil van Dijk (7.00) has hardly put a foot wrong since getting sent off against Newcastle United. Mohamed Salah (7.06) has been consistently good, with only two below-par performances in the last week coming against Luton Town and Toulouse.

Best of the rest

Trent Alexander-Arnold (6.86) continues to thrive in his inverted right-back role and as vice captain, while Ryan Gravenberch (6.90) has embraced playing under Klopp since his arrival in the summer and has notably shone in the Europa League.

Both Joe Gomez (6.69) and Joel Matip (6.82), who have seen significant playing time on the back line, have been solid when needed and have more than earned their spots.

While Curtis Jones (6.67 points) has struggled to get traction due to suspension and a nagging injury, Harvey Elliott (6.67 points) hopes to earn more starting opportunities after making significant contributions off the bench.

Diogo Jota (6.58), however, has occasionally been unpredictable in terms of performance but has continued to knock in the goals, with his display against Brentford the best of his season so far.

Must do better

Both Ibrahima Konate (6.30) and Cody Gakpo (6.29), who have both had rough starts to the season due to injury, a loss in form, and competition for positions (not helped by the fact that both players are often forced to drop into midfield), have struggled to reach the heights they reached last year.

Newly acquired midfielders Alexis Mac Allister (6.07 goals) and Wataru Endo (6.27 goals) have shown signs of steady development over the previous month. Mac Allister has occasionally struggled in a number six role that doesn’t maximize his potential.

Kostas Tsimikas (5.89) is having trouble readjusting to life as a starting left back in the Premier League.

Twenty-year-old Jarell Quansah (7.13), who hasn’t played enough to get an average rating, has shown promise at center back, while 6-foot-8-inch Andy Robertson was adjusting to a somewhat different role before his injury.
