Trent Alexander-Arnold - Busy creatively Alexander-Arnold had two shots (zero on goal), five crosses (zero accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 2-0 victory versus Brentford.

Impact Alexander-Arnold was active up and down the pitch throughout Sunday's clash, though he failed to find much end product. Under new boss Arne Slot, Alexander-Arnold plays as a more traditional full-back, giving him fewer chances to get into the attack. Still he should have plenty of upside in the attack, and Liverpool have yet to concede three two matches, adding some nice clean sheet upside.

Diogo Jota - Assists in win Jota assisted once to go with four shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Brentford.

Impact Jota put his name back on the score sheet with an assist to Luis Diaz on the break. One of the biggest concerns for Jota has been his generally subpar link-up play. In the early stages of the 2024/25 campaign he's looked far improved in that, giving him a new facet to his game with some playmaking. If he can keep this form going Jota should have no issues holding on to the top job.

Mohamed Salah - Scores again Salah scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Brentford.

Impact Salah kept up his usual level, tacking on another goal as he proved to be far too much for Brentford to handle. The winger remains one of the absolute top options in the Premier League, with nearly unmatched upside in every match. Salah will keep the good form rolling against Manchester United before the international break.

Luis Diaz - Goal, assist in win Diaz scored one goal and assisted once from three shots and four chances created in Sunday's 2-0 win against Brentford.

Impact Diaz got on the scoresheet with a pair of goal contributions during Sunday's comfortable win. The winger has held onto his starting role under new boss Arne Slot and seems to be thriving. The concern for Diaz is the same as always, can he keep the goal contributions coming consistently. Across his time at Liverpool the talent has always been there, but Diaz's consistency has let him down.

Curtis Jones - Misses out Sunday Jones was held out of Sunday's 2-0 win over Brentford due to injury, according to manager Arne Slot. "He picked up a little injury during the week and missed a couple of sessions,...

Impact Jones has yet to appear this season, with the midfielder missing out on their opener after going unused off the bench but now is missing out due to an injury he picked up in training. The exact extent of his issues is unknown, leaving a timetable for his return up in the air. However, it was claimed to be a "little injury," so there is a decent chance he could return as soon as their next match.

Jarell Quansah - Makes bench against Brentford Quansah (undisclosed) is among the substitutes for Sunday's match against Brentford.

Impact Quansah is good to go after dealing with a knock in the buildup to Sunday's fixture. The defender takes up a role on the bench after starting last week's season opener, with Ibrahima Konate preferred next to Virigl van Dijk in the heart of Liverpool's back four.

Jarell Quansah - Picks up injury Quansah picked up an injury in training and is a doubt for Sunday's clash with Brentford, according to manager Arne Slot. "Normally he should have done recovery, [but] he wanted to...

Impact Quansah was brought off at halftime during the opener against Ipswich and then picked up an injury early in the week. The defender doesn't seem to have suffered a serious injury, but it's likely he's on the bench Sunday either way, with Ibrahima Konate preferred in the starting XI.

Alisson - Two saves in win Alisson had two saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 2-0 victory against Ipswich Town.

Impact Alisson started the season with a calm and collected clean sheet against newly-promoted Ipswich Town. The goalkeeper was never really troubled and stopped both of the shots on his net. Alisson should be one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League barring a major downturn in form.

Luis Diaz - Lacks end product Diaz generated three shots (zero on goal) and three chances created in Saturday's 2-0 win over Ipswich Town.

Impact Diaz was busy up and down the left wing Saturday, but just couldn't trouble the net. The winger has frequently had matches like this, plenty of action, plenty of time on the ball, but little to show for it. With Cody Gakpo waiting in the wings to compete for minutes, a run of bad form could see Diaz fall out of the starting XI.

Dominik Szoboszlai - Busy in win Szoboszlai generated three shots (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-0 win versus Ipswich Town.

Impact Szoboszlai got the start as the creative option in midfield and did well, though he was held off the scoresheet. There's little competition for the starting role so Szoboszlai should be in for major minutes. If Szoboszlai can add some more goal contributions to his game he could be a surprisingly productive option in the Liverpool attack.

AUGUST 19 • ROTOWIRE

Diogo Jota - Nets Saturday Jota scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one cross (one accurate) in Saturday's 2-0 win against Ipswich Town.

Impact Jota opened the scoring during Saturday's win, as well as making the start. If Jota remains the starting striker moving forward that would be a nice role in the coming weeks. Still Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez will likely provide competition or rotation for Jota, limiting him from taking all minutes.

AUGUST 19 • ROTOWIRE

Mohamed Salah - Goal, assist in win Salah scored one goal and assisted once from four shots and two chances created in Saturday's 2-0 victory versus Ipswich Town.

Impact Salah kicked off his season as he always does, with another two goal contributions. The winger remains one of the absolute top options in the Premier League and is poised to continue in a major role under new boss Arne Slot. Salah could be in line for more than 30 goal contributions yet again.

AUGUST 19 • ROTOWIRE

Jarell Quansah - Pulled for tactical reasons Quansah (strain) was taken off the field at halftime of Saturday's 2-0 win against Ipswich for tactical purposes and not due to injury, according to Scott Trotter of The Mirror.

Impact Quansah looked to possibly have been taken off due to injury Saturday but those claims were quickly shot down with the defender only being brought off after struggling in the first half. This is good news for the club, as he is in a position battle with Ibrahima Konate and could see more starting time. However, expect Konate to start in their next match after Liverpool provided a much better second half following his entrance to the game.
