Liverpool finds themselves in a favorable position. Since, there is a compelling argument for many of the club’s players being the best in the Premier League.
From Mohamed Salah to Virgil van Dijk, Jurgen Klopp has at least one top notch player in almost every position at Liverpool. Meanwhile, one player who doesn’t always receive the same level of praise but deserves to is Alisson Becker.
Goalkeepers are frequently overlooked in football. And their true value is often only fully noticeable once they are absent.
In the broader discussions, Alisson’s name is seldom there among the best players in the Premier League. However, according to one BBC journalist, this lack of recognition seems unjust.
What does the journalist think of the Liverpool goalkeeper?
In a discussion on BBC 5 Live, Rory Smith expressed his high regard for Alisson Becker. Thus, describing him as a player who could potentially be the best in the league.
Smith said: “I think you can make a case that Alisson is the best player in the Premier League in his position, that he might well be the best player in the Premier League. You would never say that because he’s a goalkeeper, he’s not Kevin de Bruyne or Erling Haaland, but Alisson is so exceptional as a goalkeeper that it’s worth considering.”
It is true that Alisson is frequently not taken into consideration as a contender for awards. Despite being deserving. His £67 million signing, as reported by Sky Sports, has proven to be a worthwhile investment in every aspect.
