Hull City

David Marshall – 6/10

It’s clearly a horrible game for a goalkeeper when the opposition team gets five goals into the net. Except for the two penalties, he couldn’t do much based on the quality of goals Liverpool scored.

Ahmed Elmohamady – 4/10

Elmohamady didn’t just get straight red-carded for a deliberate handball but also handed Liverpool their first penalty. He did clear a good early chance by Coutinho early on though.

Jake Livermore – 6/10

Livermore had the most touches for Hull and passed decently at the back.

Curtis Davies – 4/10

All Davies did was head a cross by James Milner very early in the game. However, he did lead from the front in what was to be a thrashing.

Andrew Robertson – 4.5/10

Robertson took down Daniel Sturridge in the box and handed Liverpool their second penalty. Also did a dismal job on controlling Mane on the right

Samuel Clucas – 6.5/10

Clucas was probably Hull’s best player and one of the very few worthy of credit at the end. He showed a lot of energy in spite of Liverpool’s swarming. He eventually got into more damage control mode more than chance creating.

Tom Huddlestone – 5/10

Huddlestone received an early yellow in the game and was also taken off early in the second half for Maguire as they wanted to go for a back five in defence.

Ryan Mason
It wasn’t a debut Ryan Mason would like to remember

Ryan Mason – 5/10

Mason had his full Premier League debut this match but didn’t enjoy it very well as he received a yellow card for a late tackle on Coutinho. He was subbed in the 73rd minute for Henriksen.

Robert Snodgrass – 5.5/10

Snodgrass received a knock and struggled after. He was also dominated by Milner with tackles and ball retrieving.

Abel Hernandez – 5/10

Hernandez had a very poor game. He barely touched the ball. He just showed how he might not be fit to play as the one up front when required.

Adama Diomande – 5/10

Diomande hardly had time to make an impact or impress as he was subbed in the 33rd minute for David Meyler.

Substitutes

David Meyler – 6.5/10

Meyler came on for Diomande in the 33rd minute and proved to be a good substitution as he scored Hull’s only goal early in the second half. He slammed a goal in after Liverpool failed to clear a corner.

Harry Maguire – 5/10

Maguire came on for Huddlestone as a half-time change - to go for a back five in defence. He didn’t do much more than win a free kick in the defensive half.

Markus Henriksen – N/A

Henriksen came on for Mason in the 74th minute and made no difference or impact as such.
