Long post alert! Here's my read on the game yesterday -

Firmino - Did not have his passing hat on yesterday, but his movement was phenomenal as always. Great reading of the game.

Sturridge - Looked closer to his usual self today. I am also super excited that he has now gone close to a month without getting injured.

Ojo - Had flashes of brilliance again, but needs more consistency. I did like him more than Ibe though (even though Ibe had more direct influence in the game's result)

Ibe - Seemed a little lazy at times, especially in the second half. Did not look to take on his man too often. I don't know if it's down to lack of match fitness.

Allen - Had a good game overall. He has impressed me in recent weeks with his desire and tenacity. Still lacks in technical acumen - but deserves to start more games while Hendo and Can are injured.

Stewart - he is promising and keeps things ticking. I feel he sometimes invites pressure in dangerous areas by dwelling on the ball instead of releasing quickly. Overall, I think he is a good player to have in the squad, but doubt he will ever translate into becoming a great player.

Ibe went off with cramp, probably why he faded, he hasn't played in a While!

Wasn't people moaning that ibe always tries to take on a man and loses the ball.
Maybe he didn't take on his man so much today because of klopp telling him to keep it simple and get the ball in the box.

I agree ATred, in honesty I was one of those that got frustrated at how obvious Ibe's attempts at taking people on were, needs to go back to basics as he did yesterday and go from there, he got the easy stuff right yesterday so happy days.
