Alisson Becker 8
Fielded one shot from Gibbs-White before even better save from same player after break. No chance with either goal and calmed nerves with some good aerial takes.
Trent Alexander-Arnold 7
Not as much room when stepping into midfield early on but became more dangerous, particularly with set-piece deliveries, two of which helped create goals.
Ibrahima Konate 6
Involved in a battle of physical might up against Awoniyi, which he won first half but found a lot more difficult after break.

Virgil van Dijk 6
A little slow with reactions on occasion defensively and a bit nervy but a threat in the opposing area, one header prompting fine Navas save.
Andy Robertson 7
Plenty of hustle and bustle down the left and swung in some inviting deliveries, not least for second goal. Unlucky deflection for Forest equaliser and set up Jota’s second.
Fabinho 6
Lacked a bit of tempo to his game first half although he kept the ball moving. Subbed.
Jordan Henderson 6
Unable to inject sufficient pace into Liverpool’s play first half but became more prominent as the Reds began to take a hold.
Curtis Jones 6
Involved heavily in the early stages and worked hard but slightly too safe in possession. Subbed.
Mohamed Salah 7
Very quiet in opening quarter but became more of a threat as space opened up. Took goal brilliantly for Liverpool’s third and work-rate excellent.
Cody Gakpo 6
Smothered by the Forest defence at times but had one effort cleared off line. Subbed.
Diogo Jota 8
Missed big chance first half with free header at far post but made amends with poacher’s first and a great finish for second. Subbed.
Darwin Nunez (for Gakpo 60) 6
Involved in his usual manner.
Thiago Alcantara (for Fabinho 60) 6
Passing radar wasn’t completely tuned in properly.
Luis Diaz (for Jota 82)
More welcome minutes.
James Milner (for Jones 82)
Brought on to help see the game out.
