WELL, it may not be pretty to watch but at least the results have got a bit better.

- By IAN DOYLE

Liverpool are making slow but steady progress in both the Premier League and Champions League even if the performances of Arne Slot's side have overall left something to be desired.And that is very much prevalent in how so many individuals have struggled to get anywhere near their best for a variety of reasons, with the initial difficulties of most of the new signings adjusting to new roles and methods having been apparent.

The ECHO has rated Liverpool's squad throughout the 29 games they have played in all competitions this season, marking them out of 10 for every appearance in which they played for at least 15 minutes.

The men who have impressed

Dominik Szoboszlai (average score 7.08) has consistently been the best performer this season since the opening weeks, although he has temporarily dropped a level since returning from suspension last week.

Alisson Becker (6.58) has remained a steady performer without really having been compelled to make too many outstanding saves.

Fulham's late equaliser at the weekend was typical of the fact most of the goals the Brazilian has conceded this term have had little do with any shortcoming on his part.
