It’s an Alisson love-in right now as our new goalkeeper makes his Liverpool debut this evening and shows he’s the real deal.

Our new signing from Roma has been quality on the ball this evening as we go in 2-0 up at half time in our friendly against Napoli.
In fairness, since he’s not had too much actual goalkeeping to do, it’s nice to see Alisson fitting in nicely with how Jurgen Klopp has us play.
Virgil van Dijk is clearly recognising the talent when he sees it – just look at this reaction as he immediately acknowledges the Brazilian’s role in beginning the move that led to James Milner’s opener.

Unsurprisingly, many LFC fans on Twitter are loving it…
If possible, can someone liquefy Van Dijk showing his appreciation for that gorgeous ball by Alisson and inject it straight into my veins? #LFC pic.twitter.com/QhcsldfBJo

Great confidence boost for Alisson this. Van Dijk doing this helps Alisson keep playing his own style of play despite a few scares. Love this squad 🔴 https://t.co/cYKMY1tEY6
