Alexis Mac Allister reveals Mohamed Salah and Kostas Tsimikas are the strongest players at Liverpool
Alexis Mac Allister, Liverpool FC’s versatile midfielder, has given an intriguing insight into the club’s strongest players, and his choices might raise a few eyebrows among fans and pundits alike.
In a recent interview with Goal.com via ECHO, Mac Allister was asked to name the strongest player to face in training at Liverpool. Surprisingly, the Argentine midfielder bypassed the towering figures of Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, and Joe Gomez and instead singled out two somewhat unexpected names – Mohamed Salah and Kostas Tsimikas.
I would say Mo [Salah], or [Kostas] Tsimikas.”
“He’s all day in the gym, added Mac Allister of Salah. “So he is very strong.”
Salah, Liverpool’s Egyptian superstar, is no stranger to accolades, and his incredible work ethic remains well-documented. Over his six-year tenure at Anfield, Salah has established himself not only as a prolific goal-scorer but also as a model professional. He consistently shares glimpses of his rigorous gym workouts and recovery routines on social media, showcasing his commitment to maintaining peak physical condition.
Tsimikas, on the other hand, might come as a surprise choice to some. The Greek left-back, while undoubtedly talented, does not see himself often associated with being one of the squad’s strongest players. However, Mac Allister’s revelation sheds light on Tsimikas’s dedication and determination to stay in peak physical shape.
Tsimi and Mo The Strongest
The fact that Mac Allister selected Salah and Tsimikas as the strongest players speaks volumes about the Liverpool squad’s commitment to fitness and physical conditioning. It underscores the ethos within the club, where even world-class stars like Salah continuously strive to improve their physical attributes.
While the towering presence of defenders like Virgil, Konate, and Joe Gomez might be more obvious choices for the title of the strongest player, Mac Allister’s perspective highlights the diverse skill sets and work ethics within Liverpool’s ranks.
Ultimately, this revelation serves as a testament to the collective drive and professionalism that Liverpool players bring to their training sessions.
