Alisson has solved Liverpool's goalkeeping conundrum

The Brazilian was another high-profile goalkeeper who was on the move in the off-season. After impressing in the Eternal City, Alisson found himself packing his bags for Merseyside and boy, hasn’t he made his mark at Liverpool.

For a while, Liverpool’s search for a top-notch goalkeeper had borne only futile fruits. However, the arrival of Alisson has signified an end to their forage and the Brazilian has painted as solid a picture as any between the sticks.

In addition, the Brazilian’s ball-playing attributes have helped Liverpool in constructing play from the back.

Though he has produced a howler or two, Alisson has largely been composed under crosses and has dealt with shots expertly. Moreover, the Brazilian’s ability to come up trumps in clutch situations has come to the fore with his point-blank save against Napoli a perfect example.

At this juncture, Alisson represents one of the safest options in goal and thus, easily takes the No.4 spot on our list.
