Liverpool had a lot of their players away on international duty over the last week or so.



The Reds were one of the strongest teams in the world last season, so it isn’t a surprise to see their players being whisked away on international duty by their countries.



Some, such as Conor Bradley, have even announced themselves as options for Arne Slot in ways that he may not have initially thought about using them.



Whereas others, such as Dominik Szoboszlai, may not have earned all the results they deserve, but they still more than proved their worth after the recent form they’ve been in.

However, in the case of one Liverpool player, he’s been dubbed the ‘best’ performing player of the international break for his country.



Indeed, he may have the odd problem here and there with injuries, but since the Reds have a player of Giorgi Mamardashvili’s quality as his back-up, they’re likely not all that worried about his injury history.

Since he joined Liverpool from Roma back in 2018, the Brazilian quickly established himself as one of the best ‘keepers in the world with his reaction time unmatched by any of his competitors.

He guessed the right corner of the penalty but could not stop the ball.”

Brazilian outlet CBF.com also echoed this, with the website even dubbing Alisson as the ‘best’ player for Brazil throughout the entire international break.



Indeed, Alisson may have cost Liverpool around £66.8million to bring to Anfield in 2018, but with the performances he’s put in since joining, he’s been worth every penny.
