Former Liverpool goalkeeper praises new signing.

Former Liverpool and England goalkeeper Ray Clemence has praised Alisson’s performance.

The Brazil number one made his Liverpool competitive debut in the Premier League yesterday in a 4-0 win at Anfield against West Ham.

Alisson will have tougher days – West Ham could muster only two shots on target.

Ex-Reds stopper Ray Clemence felt that Alisson did what he had to do well, and impressed him.

Liverpool spent what was at the time a world record fee for a goalkeeper to sign Alisson, a figure which was later topped by Chelsea.

Alisson replaced Loris Karius, whose nervous performances in the Liverpool goal were proving a real weak point.

A clean sheet rarely looked in doubt for Jurgen Klopp’s side yesterday and it was easy to see that Alisson’s presence has given the entire defence confidence.
