A number of Liverpool fans have been lauding Alisson, following a match-saving performance against Man United on Sunday.
The Reds were frustrated by their rivals at Anfield, being held to a 0-0 draw and rarely looking like scoring.
It means the champions now haven’t scored in the Premier League since the 1-1 draw at home to West Brom on December 27th – a run of almost four matches.
Liverpool’s attacking play was non-existent for chunks of the game, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson failing to find their usual quality at full-back, and Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino all struggling, too.
It was the Reds’ defensive stars who stood out most, with Fabinho and Jordan Henderson excellent at centre-back.
Alisson was arguably the most important player on the pitch, however, as he made vital second half stops to deny Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba.
It was a display that outlined the Brazilian’s status as the world’s best goalkeeper and these Liverpool fans hailed him on Twitter.

Keep saying Alisson Becker is the best Liverpool goalkeeper since the late Ray Clemence: this game might not live long the memory but Alisson’s reputation is once again endorsed.

Alisson single handedly kept our Anfield record alive. Him and Thiago absolutely flawless today

Alisson is so clear of any other keeper in world football. Absolutely world class. Makes difficult saves look a lot easier than they are because his positioning is so good.
