Burton Albion 0, Liverpool 5: Man of the Match

Turns out that facing off against the second-worst defensive side in the Championship was just what Liverpool needed following Saturday's difficult loss to Burnley in the league, and in the end the Reds were full value as they cruised to a dominant five goal victory over their overmatched opponents in the EFL Cup.

Now let us know how you saw it. Hitting the thumbs up button is a vote to move the player up the list—or to help keep them on top. Hitting thumbs down is a vote to push that player closer to the bottom. It's half man of the match poll and half power ranking, and we want to use it to find out who you think played well after each Liverpool match and, at the other end, who you'd maybe like to see given the next game off.

At the end of the month we'll go through the results of the month's polls and vote The Liverpool Offside’s player of the month and, come next May, those monthly results will help to determine your TLO player of the season for 2016-17.
