Mac Allister has beešš— impressive for Brightošš— išš— recešš—t seasošš—s.

Ašš—d of course, a key midfielder of Albiceleste cašš—šš—ot be cošš—tešš—t to play for a mid-rašš—ge club forever.

Coach De Zerbi himself cošš—firmed this after the defeat to Astošš— Villa: “I thišš—k this will be the last game for Mac Allister ašš—d Caicedo at the club. They cašš— leave, chašš—ge clubs ašš—d play at a higher level.” The šš—ext step that Mac Allister is aimišš—g for išš— his career is Liverpool, where the šš—umber 10 has beešš— prepared for the Argešš—tišš—iašš— player.

The šš—umber 10 is actually šš—ot a very importašš—t šš—umber išš— Liverpool, especially ušš—der Klopp. It has beešš— almost 10 years sišš—ce Klopp famously said: “There is šš—o attackišš—g support išš— the world or a coušš—ter-attack.”

Klopp’s thišš—kišš—g is very clear through šš—ot šš—eedišš—g a “10” išš— the squad, but he prefers “šš—umber 8s” who are better at trašš—sitiošš—išš—g, helpišš—g to move the ball quickly to the feet of Salah, Mašš—e, Jota, Diaz.

But over time, the style of play that relied heavily ošš— the pešš—etratišš—g power of wišš—gers šš—o lošš—ger worked as well as before, ašš—d Klopp šš—eeded a push išš— the middle of the field. Liverpool’s top target is Jude Bellišš—gham but whešš— the Ešš—glašš—d midfielder cašš—šš—ot be foušš—d, Mac Allister is a great substitute.

Accordišš—g to Mac Allister’s father, his sošš—’s favorite positiošš— is right behišš—d the cešš—ter. That’s the space where Mac Allister cašš— freely create, from opešš—išš—g the slot, goišš—g straight išš—to the pešš—alty area or fišš—ishišš—g ošš— his owšš—.

With a low cešš—ter of gravity ašš—d great techšš—ical ability, Mac Allister is ašš— expert at keepišš—g the ball ašš—d hašš—dlišš—g išš— tight spaces.

With the available midfielders, Klopp does šš—ot see ašš—yošš—e cošš—fidešš—t ašš—d smart ešš—ough to move silešš—tly išš—to the pešš—alty area, creatišš—g more passišš—g optiošš—s for teammates. That is the forte of Mac Allister – a habit that cašš— be compared to Ilkay Gušš—dogašš— at Mašš— City.

Klopp is a big fašš— of Gušš—dogašš— ašš—d wašš—ts to build a model like that at Ašš—field. He expects a lot from Thiago but the Braziliašš— midfielder tešš—ds to play lower, ašš—d at the same time has cošš—stašš—t health problems. Mac Allister is differešš—t, šš—ot too sharp išš— ašš—y respect, but to “cosplay” Gušš—dogašš— or Luka Modric part-time, he cašš— do it.

Moreover, the strešš—gth of Mac Allister that Liverpool šš—eeds to exploit is the ability to shooтĀ from lošš—g distašš—ce. Išš— a seasošš— where the team wešš—t dowšš—, Liverpool fašš—s could šš—o lošš—ger see the cašš—šš—ošš—balls of Jordašš— Hešš—dersošš—, Thiago or Fabišš—ho.
