Liverpool coach Arne Slot on Alexis Mac Allister: “Very important player”

2

Liverpool coach Arne Slot has spoken about Alexis Mac Allister, calling him a very important player.

The coach of the newly crowned Premier League champions spoke at a pre-match press conference on Friday and was asked about Alexis Mac Allister. Here is what he had to say:

“I don’t think he is underrated by me because he played maybe every game or close to every game.

Maybe the few times he didn’t play that was because he needed rest or he got a knock, so he couldn’t play.

“[He’s a] very important player, [has] game intelligence [and is] so comfortable on the ball.

“But what makes him even more special to me is normally players that have so much game inside and are so comfortable on the ball are not as aggressive and intense without the ball.

“He is one of the few players in the world that combines this great game intelligence, great on the ball, but [with] a tenacity without the ball. In our midfield, he stands out in terms of tenacity.”
