Alexis Mac Allister is yet to reach full fitness this season and the midfielder’s form has suffered as a result, but Liverpool are relaxed over the situation. Pearce writes that Mac Allister’s recovery has taken “longer than expected” but Liverpool are confident he will “kick on” in the upcoming fixtures.
“Then I think after that, then his pre-season has ended and we can expect even more from him. But until now I’m very happy with what I’ve seen from him.” Mac Allister’s struggle to influence games Mac Allister has still started every game in which he has been available for Liverpool in this season’s Premier League, only missing the 3-2 win at Newcastle with a minor muscle problem.
However he is yet to play 90 minutes for Liverpool and the only time he has completed a full game since April was in Argentina’s 1-0 defeat to Ecuador last month. That has only fed the inconsistency in terms of his form, with Mac Allister clearly not yet trusted to play a full game.
