Alexis Mac Allister has given his views on who the slowest player in the Liverpool squad is right now.
The Reds have some real speed merchants in the team at the moment. Darwin Nunez is one of the fastest players in the league, while the likes of Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz are no slouches either.
But asked by GOAL on TikTok who is actually the slowest out of Jurgen Klopp’s current crop, Mac Allister gave an answer that Liverpool fans won’t mind too much.
“Ali,” answered the 24-year-old, with a trademark laugh.
The worst dressed award went to Diogo Jota, while Alexis couldn’t decide whether Kostas Tsimikas or Andy Robertson is the funniest member of the team.
Alisson left playing catch-up
It’s nice to see that Mac Allister is getting to know his teammates so well already.
Alisson may have something to say about his selection as the slowest, but it sounds pretty bang-on to us.
Obviously, Ali is quick where it really matters, though. His reflexes are incredible and he can get across the goal-line like few ‘keepers can.
Nevertheless, we can’t imagine him a foot-race against any of the the rest of the team. Hopefully the big man is never in a position on the pitch to need to show his speed.
In the meantime, the question of who is the fastest in the Liverpool team may be a more difficult one to answer.
Maybe it’s time the club set up a squad-wide race to settle all of this once and for all!
You never know, maybe Ali will surprise us all.
