Whisper it quietly but Alisson Becker is back to his best. With Liverpool chasing an unprecedented quadruple, it feels like the goalkeeper is making crucial saves on a weekly basis to maintain the Reds’ charge.
With 21 clean sheets to his name so far this season, he has already comfortably beaten his totals from each of the past two campaigns. Meanwhile, with Liverpool scheduled to play at least another 12 matches, he’ll fancy his chances of easily beating his Reds’ best haul of 21 shutouts from his maiden year at Anfield.
Alisson ’s return to elite levels this year has proven to be as vital for Liverpool’s revival as Virgil van Dijk ’s comeback from injury. Last term, the 29-year-old still emerged to produce the Reds’ moment of the season when scoring a spectacular last-minute winner against West Bromwich Albion to keep Jurgen Klopp ’s side in the hunt for the top four.
