Some had questioned over Liverpool's decision to sign Alisson with the then world-record fee of £66.8 million, due to the 26-year-old having just made his breakthrough season for AS Roma at the time. However, he quickly justified his massiveprice-tag and became Europe's best shot-stopper in his debut season for the English side.
He also makes up for Loris Karius' problems after replacing the German between the sticks at Anfield. The Reds struggled defensively in the previous season due to several Karius's schoolboy mistakes. The goalkeeping errors also cost Jurgen Klopp dearly during the last Champions League final despite van Dijk's presence.
Now, Liverpool has transformed into impregnable fortress thanks to Alisson's solid goalkeeping. The Brazilian has also maintained an excellent level of concentration due to his high passing accuracy. His Champions League final performance was also a stark contrast to Karius, as he was named the man of the match following the conclusion of the game.
