Liverpool star Luis Diaz has commented about how the summer signing Alexis Mac Allister has integrated into the team and also praises his abilities.
The Reds strongly headed into the international break with 3 wins and 1 draw in the opening 4 games of PL. And the team looks in great harmony and this would give them the much-needed confidence.
Although Liverpool have had a rebuild, all the new signings have looked like they have been playing for the Anfield giants for a long time. Only Ryan Gravenberch is yet to make an appearance among the 4.
While speaking about all these factors, Luis Diaz shared some interesting inside scoop from the Merseyside dressing room.
Diaz talks about how Mac Allister has settled into the Liverpool team
While speaking about how Mac Allister has hit it off at Anfield on Liverpool’s matchday program via liverpoolfc.com, the Columbian stated how it has all been.
“Alexis and I have had a good friendship from when he first arrived. He’s been very close to me and, of course, to the other South American players – we spend a lot of time together with Darwin [Nunez] and Alisson [Becker] and all get on really well.”
Commenting on the ability of the Argentine, Diaz said,
“As for what Alexis brings to the team, well, he just has so much quality.He gets the team playing and he brings a real dynamism.
He’s not just great with the ball but out of possession too – he always tries to ensure he’s in the right position and makes the right decision.
That’s something about him that impresses me greatly.In the time that we’ve known each other, he’s a great guy – really chilled, very humble and down to earth and nice to get along with.”
It is very important for the new players to feel at home and the responsibility to make them feel so is always upon the existing players.
Liverpool and Klopp have been great throughout the years in man-management and making the players feel at home. Mac Allister’s case is no exception from that.
Also, this partnership off the pitch will ensure great understanding between the players on the pitch. Thus, the chemistry of linking players off and on the turf will definitely help the Merseysiders link-up play.
An ardent football fan and a proud Red. I take immense pleasure in analyzing the intricacies of the game.
