Ray Clemence has praised Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson after beating Crystal Palace.
Ex-Liverpool and England goalkeeper Ray Clemence was impressed on Twitter after his former side beat Crystal Palace 2-0 on Monday night in the Premier League.
The Reds made it six points from six in the league after winning at Selhurst Park, which followed on from a comprehensive victory over West Ham.
Jurgen Klopp’s side kept a second consecutive clean sheet and it has been the perfect start to life in English football for goalkeeper Alisson.
The 25-year-old Brazil international made the move to Liverpool from Roma in the summer for £66.8million (BBC), arriving with the reputation of being a world-class shot-stopper and someone that can play out from the back.
Clemence praised Alisson after his latest display in a Liverpool shirt and was particularly impressed by a save from a Luka Milivojecvic free-kick against Palace.
“Never easy Crystal Palace these days but did enough Liverpool to take the three points again. Alisson looked composed and solid with one excellent save from a free-kick,” Clemence wrote on his personal Twitter account.
Liverpool have turned to Alisson this year in goal after both Loris Karius and Simon Mignolet endured rough spells last season.
They are hoping that a safer pair of gloves can help them compete for the league title and the early signs are that the Brazilian is a significant upgrade.
