Alisson speaking to Joe Hart for BBC sport: “I am committed to this club 100 per cent and that involves being part of the leadership group,”
“Me, Virgil, Robbo, Trent, Mo – Macca now is someone that is bringing his experience as well. He is young, but he has achieved so many things already, and that brings him to a standard of good leadership.” Alisson Becker confirms Mac Allister is now part of the leadership group
“We have a lot of young players, new players coming in, a completely new staff. When we changed, not everything was going wrong. The challenge for us was to keep the good things, pass these things to the staff and the players coming in, and embrace the good stuff that the new staff are bringing.”
“It was a big challenge for this leadership group and I really believe we are doing quite well. We are sharing the responsibility and telling the young players they need to step up as well. This club is special and the people who work here are special.”
With Alisson confirming Mac Allister added to the leadership group, it is Van Dijk, Trent, Alisson, Salah, Robertson and Mac Allister.
