Liverpool’s win over Crystal Palace on Sunday was not only notable because the Reds picked up another big three Premier League points, but it also provided a big moment for Alisson Becker. After a number of costly mistakes in recent weeks, there has been some discussion that Alisson is likely to leave Liverpool at the end of his current contract, which expires at the end of the season.On the evidence of Sunday’s performance, though, letting him go would be a premature mistake from the Reds.



Forwards stepped up when it mattered, but still think there is so much room for improvementJoin the conversation → Alisson can play his way towards Liverpool stay If Alisson had continued in the same manner of his performance against Fenerbahce last week, for example, it would be hard to make a case for him continuing beyond this season. The win at Selhurst Park very much cemented that feeling, and where Alisson had felt to be edging towards an exit at the end of the season, he can now use his return to form as a platform from which to keep himself at Liverpool.

It would be wrong to say that Alisson had one foot out of the door before Sunday’s win, but after the 34-year-old confirmed that he wants to stay with the Reds after the game, fans may look back on the game as a turning point which sealed his future at Anfield. aryansurajcHappy they atleast recorded a win but not their best performance out there. Thank Allison😏Join the conversation → Liverpool must make Alisson less busy Although it was fantastic to see Alisson in such fine form, and it could well be the performance which propels him towards a new contract, from a wider point of view, Liverpool fans should be concerned that their goalkeeper was so busy at Selhurst Park.
