The Liverpool vs Manchester United player ratings were intriguing to dish out as the bitter rivals fought it out in a tense clash which ended 0-0.
urgen Klopp’s Liverpool huffed and puffed and had some decent chances with Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez all going close, while United looked dangerous on the break late in the second half as Rasmus Hojlund should have done better with a glorious chance.
Below are the Liverpool vs Manchester United player ratings in full, with marks out of 10 and analysis on each player.
Their best chance arguably came in the first half when Virgil van Dijk tested Andre Onana from a corner, and in truth set-pieces always looked the likeliest route to goal against an obstinate visiting defence.
However, the breakthrough never came for Jurgen Klopp's side, who are now second in the table after United stopped the rot following a poor recent run.
The Red Devils had chances to steal the three points on the break but, in truth, it was a match short on attacking quality. The visitors lost Diogo Dalot to a strange red card in the closing moments — the fullback shown two yellows in quick succession for dissent — but it was too late for Liverpool to make use of the man advantage.

It’s been a trial by fire for the United youngster Mainoo who has made his three first starts for the club away at Everton, Newcastle and now United.
The 18-year-old impressed today and, in the process, became the youngest Manchester United player to start against Liverpool in a Premier League game (18 years, 242 days).
Along with Alejandro Garnacho, it was also just the second time the Red Devils had started two teenagers in a match against Liverpool in the league (after Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo in January 2005).
