Crystal Palace v Liverpool FC - Premier League
Liverpool put in a professional performance against Palace

#3 Alisson makes a positive impact on his second league start for The Reds

Crystal Palace v Liverpool FC - Premier League
Alisson showed why Klopp splashed the cash for his services.

Similar to Van Dijk's arrival, the arrival of Alisson has had a soothing impact on Liverpool's defence. The Brazilian looked fearless and commanded the box really well.

Alisson was called into action in the 54th minute, smartly saving Milivojevic's well struck free kick. He was again called into action in the 56th minute and got down low to save Benteke's towering header. The former Roma keeper came of his line when needed and formed a great understanding with his defence.

Liverpool's number 13 ended the game making 2 crucial saves to deny Palace from finding a route back in the game. The Brazilian completed 21 of his 23 attempted passes and successfully executed 9 out of 11 long balls, which highlights his excellent distribution.

In what was an all rounded performance, Alisson showed why he is worth such a substantial fee as he put in a performance that exuded confidence and class.
