Liverpool 0, Southampton 1: Man of the Match

Southampton have beaten Liverpool in both legs of their EFL Cup semi-final and earned a deserved trip to Wembley, leaving Reds fans wondering what happened to a side that looked like one of the best in Europe in the autumn. There's plenty of blame to go around, though many will point to the disappointing Daniel Sturridge, who looks a spent force. On the flip side, Loris Karius at least deserves credit for keeping Liverpool in the tie.

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 that month's polls to help choose the Liverpool Offside’s Player of the Month and, come next May, those monthly results will help to determine your Player of the Season for 2015-16.
