Here’s how the Reds rated:
GK – Simon Mignolet – 7
Pulled off an great save from a Baptiste header to stop the lower league side taking the lead at Anfield. Kept the Rovers attack at arms length with the small threat that they posed.
CB – Glen Johnson – 5
The back-line was rarely troubled, but when Blackburn did make forays forward Johnson looked susceptible playing in an unfamiliar role.
CB – Martin Skrtel (Toure 11′) – 6
Had no chance to stamp his authority on the game after a nasty fall two minutes in, meaning he had to be substituted after ten minutes of treatment on the pitch.
CB – Dejan Lovren – 6
A spectator for the main part of the game. Didn’t oer stretch himself and looked solid without ever being tested.
