Liverpool scored four goals in 13 second-half minutes to complete a 6-0 win at bottom-of-the-league Aston Villa in the Premier League on Sunday for the team's biggest victory under manager Jurgen Klopp.

Making his first league start in four months, striker Daniel Sturridge sparked the rout with the opening goal after 16 minutes before James Milner's curling free kick from the left wing eluded everyone and bounced into the far corner in the 25th.

Emre Can, Divock Origi, Nathaniel Clyne and Kolo Toure scored in quick succession from the 58th minute in another embarrassing result for Villa, who remain eight points from safety. It was Villa's heaviest home defeat in 81 years.

Liverpool climbed to eighth place, three points behind fifth-place Manchester United.

So who impressed for the away side? And who was to blame among the Aston Villa ranks for this embarrassing loss? We take a look at the individual performances below...
