‘Superb’: Henry Winter seriously impressed by $46.2m Liverpool player vs Brentford today

It goes without saying that Liverpool have some serious quality in their midfield ranks.

Alexis Mac Allister, in particular, caught the eye of former Times journalist Henry Winter. The reporter paid tribute to the Copa America winner’s ‘superb’ range of passing on X (formerly Twitter) on show against Brentford at the weekend.

It says a great deal, perhaps, about the talents of Ryan Gravenberch that our midfield looks of a class comparable to Arsenal and Manchester City’s.

That said, it remains to be seen whether the Dutchman can offer a long-term solution to our nagging No.6 problem. Nonetheless, the signs have been promising thus far.

His midfield partners, Dominik Szoboszlai and £35m [$46.2m] 2023 signing Alexis Mac Allister, look raring to go in 2024/25, with the Hungarian’s return to form particularly notable and welcome.

Between the likes of Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott and Wataru Endo, there are some fine options on the bench to choose between.
