And breathe.
Not even Glenn Hoddle on co-commentary could put a dampener on 90 minutes of thrills as Liverpool and Crystal Palace played out the game of the season so far. Jurgen Klopp's Reds came out on top of a six-goal thriller in Selhurst Park. The win put the Pool joint top of the table with Arsenal and Man City.
A sensational first half was followed by a scrappy enough second 45, but we've clubbed together the Liverpool player ratings from a bonkers game of ball.
Loris Karius: 6
Could've done better to block James McArthur's first goal but could do nothing about the second. Comfortable enough performance from the German otherwise.
Nathaniel Clyne: 6
Very little to do all game bar putting a few crosses into the Palace area. Made a lot of runs forward but wasn't picked out more often than not.
Dejan Lovren: 6
Had an absolute nightmare to gift James McArthur the equalizer, but redeemed himself with a bullet header to get Liverpool's second. Dealt very well with the awkwardness of Christian Benteke.
Joel Matip: 7
The centre-back is yet to taste defeat while starting for Liverpool and he had another solid display, deservedly grabbing his first goal for the club just before half time.
Alberto Moreno: 7
Superb in build up to Liverpool opener, which he assisted. Failure to close down Wilfred Zaha led to second Palace equalizer, but he managed to keep his head after that.
Jordan Henderson: 7
Composed on the ball as the Liverpool midfield dominated. A solid performance from the captain, highlighted with a fantastic assist for the fourth goal.
Emre Can: 6
Was in the perfect position to grab the opener. Was a lot quieter in the second half as Liverpool started to take control of the game.
Adam Lallana: 6
Started well and had a decent first half, but fell away as the game wore on. Tested Mandanda with two efforts before being withdrawn with fifteen minutes to go.
Coutinho: 8
Repeatedly troubled the Palace back four with through ball after through ball and it was his brace of corners that were nodded in by Lovren and Matip. All over the pitch for Jurgen Klopp's men and finished as the Man of the Match.
Coutinho is playing a different game to everyone else here. 🎩 ⚽️

Sadio Mané: 5
An off day for the Senegal international. Should've scored from eight yards out just before half time and then bottled a one on one at the start of the second half.
Roberto Firmino: 7
Wasn't able to get into the game at all in the first half, but improved in the second. Eight yards out and with only Mandada to beat, he unselfishly squared it. The problem was it was to a Palace defender.
Subs
Georginio Wijnaldium: 6
Brought on with fifteen minutes to go but didn't really the chance to make that much of an impact.
