Alisson - Five save for winAlisson recorded five saves and allowed one goal in Monday's 3-1 win versus Aston Villa.

ImpactAlisson made five saves on six shots faced, weathering a massive amount of pressure early in the second half. The goalkeeper is one of the best in the Premier League, but a leaky defense has cost him his usual clean sheets. Alisson has just four clean sheets in 15 league matches, making it nearly impossible to match the 20 he tallied in 2021/22.

Darwin Nunez - Chaotic in winNunez had six shots (four on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 3-1 victory versus Aston Villa.

ImpactNunez has eight goals and two assists in all competitions for Liverpool, but could have double those numbers with a better end product. The striker was an agent of chaos to the extreme during Monday's match, creating issues for the Aston Villa defense throughout while setting Stefan Bajcetic up for the final goal. Nunez will hope to convert the absurd amount of chances he gets, especially with more competition on deck with the addition of Cody Gakpo to an already crowded Liverpool attack.

Andy Robertson - All-time assist leaderRobertson assisted once to go with eight crosses (three accurate) and five corners in Monday's 3-1 win over Aston Villa.

ImpactRobertson's assist Monday put him top of the assist charts for a defender in the Premier League. It's a major milestone for the left-back who has been brilliant since joining Liverpool. Robertson has five helpers in 13 appearances (11 starts) in the Premier League, tallying two more assists in two Champions League starts. The left-back remains a top option in all formats, with three assists in his last two matches.

ImpactBajcetic scored his first career goal late on in Monday's win. Darwin Nunez created the space for Bajcetic, who made the most of his chance to score the dagger goal. Bajcetic has seen occasional use off the bench but is unlikely to break into the starting XI any time soon.

Virgil Van Dijk - Scores rare goalvan Dijk scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Monday's 3-1 win against Aston Villa.

Impactvan Dijk netted his second goal of the campaign on the half volley. The big center-back is a set-piece threat and has consistently scored during his time with Liverpool, giving him some offensive upside. van Dijk also tends to pile up the defensive volume, with 67 clearances through 15 appearances, all starts.

Mohamed Salah - Goal, assist in winSalah scored one goal and assisted once from three shots and four chances created in Monday's 3-1 win over Aston Villa.

ImpactSalah scored once and added an assist, getting off to a hot start in the second half of the Premier League.
