Hart - Not particularly tested, but could have been stronger on Torres's second goal. 6.
Zabaleta - Solid enough. Perhaps unlucky with the sending off as it was more deserving of a yellow. 6.
Garrido - Great strike for the free-kick, but beaten far too often. 6.
Dunne - An impressive display. Threw his body on the line. 7.
Richards - A strong performance, but allowed Torres to escape for Liverpool's second. 7.
Kompany - Neat and tidy once again. 7.
Elano - Played some excellent balls, but struggled as Liverpool gained the asecndancy. 6.
Ireland - Good first half, but like many was not involved enough after the break. 7.
Wright-Phillips - Some good movement and effective runs, but wasteful in possession too often. 6.
Robinho - Bright and bubbly, but a bruising afternoon and did not receive enough protection. 7.
Jo - Held the ball up well, but not enough play where it really mattered. 6.
Subs:
Gelson - Out of position and over whelmed late on. 5.
Evans - A willing runner but little effect. 6.
Petrov - Not really in the game. 6.
