Manager Jurgen Klopp with new signing Alexis Mac Allister’s progress in this current campaign as the German claims he loves everything about him.
Speaking to the Anfield Media Team, Klopp was addressing about his team before the match against Brighton & Hove Albion. He was discussing about Argentine midfielder’s progress this season.
Mac Allister joined Liverpool this summer for a fee of ยฃ35 million. He was done quite well since joining the club as the midfielder started each and every Premier league game for Reds this season.
The 24-year-old even featured in both the Europa League fixture as a substitute. He his going to face his former club on Sunday as it’ll be a important for the World Cup winner.
Klopp was asked about Mac Allister’s best position, the German replied :-
โNo, we didnโt even look for his best position yet, we just use him.
โHeโs a fantastic player. I love everything about him, super-smart, tactically and off the pitch as well. So thatโs really, really nice to work with him.
โIf we as a team defend well, he can play definitely the six, definitely.
โDid I know that before? I had a guess, but I was not sure because I didnโt know exactly how all the other boys will do defending and because we defend more compact and better than we did in our bad phases last year.
โWe have small spaces and then itโs really, really good because he sees the situations really well, and from there we have an extra footballer on the pitch and itโs really cool.
โBut best position, heโs too young for me to know it already, heโs a midfielder, I can tell you that, heโs a midfielder โ and Iโm happy about having him.โ
