Alisson Becker 7
Good saves to deny Broja and Armstrong at either end of first half, and another decent stop later kept out the latter.
Trent Alexander-Arnold 8
Sold Konate short with throw-in for Broja chance, but going forward provided plenty of ammunition. Involved in second goal and corner set up third.
Ibrahima Konate 7
Some nervy moments – thanks in part to the conditions – but earned pat from Alisson for putting off Broja when Southampton man was clear and later blocked goalbound Armstrong effort. An improvement.
Virgil van Dijk 7
Marshalled the back line with authority and mopped up whenever required. Dealt with swirling wind well and thundered home fine strike for the fourth.

Andy Robertson 9
Created the first with low cross and a constant threat down the left going forward, linking well with Mane and Jota. Excellent return to form.
Fabinho 7
The usual combination of good positioning, intercepting and solid tackling from the Brazilian. Doesn’t mind the dirty work.
Thiago Alcantara 8
Took some risks in possession but they paid off, helping find holes in between the Southampton lines. Drop of shoulder before striking his deflected goal was delicious. Subbed.
Jordan Henderson 8
Linked superbly with Salah in the build-up to the second and kept Liverpool pushing forward with swift distribution. Subbed.
Give us YOUR player ratings for the Saints win:
Mohamed Salah 7
Toyed with Salisu for most of the first half, close with one curler and assisted the second, but should have done better when clean through towards break.
Diogo Jota 8
In the right place to tuck away twice before the break and could easily have had more with a bit more accuracy. Subbed.
Sadio Mane 8
Full of energy and vigour, played big part in the opener and marginal call saw header chalked off for offside.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (for Thaigo 59) 7
More minutes against his former club and warmed palms of McCarthy with one drive.
James Milner (for Henderson 67) 7
Dragged effort wide on first Premier League action in a month.
Takumi Minamino (for Jota 81)
Hi there.
