I highly rank the player I'm going to mention, Mac Allister.“I think he is a world-class player and a World Cup champion.



Since he has been at Liverpool, he has been a very influential player but [Sunday] was the worst game I’ve ever seen Mac Allister[play]. Asked about the midfielder’s form, Liverpool boss Arne Slot said: “I think what he needed is what he showed in the last six, seven or eight games – a run of games where he’s getting back to his usual level that he showed so many times last season.“And he had that level also in the first half of the season but it went a bit with ups and downs, as the team went in terms of performances with ups and downs.“But I see much more consistency recently – not only in Macca’s performance but in the team performance and many individual performances.

I understand the rules but it's football, it's very harsh.”On his eventual winner, the Argentine midfielder added: "I knew I would get another one [chance]. But I had another opportunity and I am glad it went in."Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
