Liverpool goalie Alisson Becker is the best in the world as per Gary Neville

Not only as per Gary Nevile for sure. Liverpool superstar Alisson Becker is truly one of the greatest goalkeepers the Premier League has ever seen. Time and again, he has proved to be the difference between the Reds and other sides in close contests and has barely put a foot wrong.

Ever since joining the Reds from Roma back in 2018, Alisson has grown from strength to strength and now, he sees himself as one of the best in the world, and surely the best in the Premier League at the moment.

Tasked with assembling the best Premier League player, Gary Neville via Sky Sports built an amalgamation of Jack Grealish, Adama Traore, Alisson Becker and Kevin de Bruyne stating that the Brazilian is the best keeper in the league and in the world.

In 240 appearances for the Reds across all competitions, Ali has kept 105 clean sheets. His top-class distribution skills have also fetched him three assists to boot. And who can forget that goal against West Brom in the 2020-21 season?

That was potentially the biggest moment for Alisson during his time at Liverpool. That goal came at a time when things off the field were tough for the 31-year-old as he had lost his father not more than a week ago at that point in time. To show so much mental strength is surely worth a lot of commending.

In the last two seasons alone, without Alisson in goal, Liverpool would have struggled a lot and would not even have been playing the Europa League this time around.

For a former Manchester United captain to say that a Liverpool player is the best in the world in his position, he surely must be. We would only know how important Alisson has been for the Reds over the years when he won’t be around.
