Liverpool goalkeeper Kelleher: Alisson a great support

Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher appreciates the support of senior teammate Alisson.

Kelleher has shone in place of the injured Brazilian.

He told liverpoolfc.com: “It's really good, I think we have a strong goalkeeper unit at the club.

“It's always been really good with Ali. We've been together a few years now so we know each other quite well. He's always there to support me and I think the view of the whole goalkeeping unit is that they are always there to support the person who is playing.

“Ali's one of the best in the world in my opinion, one of the best ever. As I say, I've trained with him for a good number of years and just being able to watch him and what he does in the games and how he handles situations is probably the best thing for me.

“Being able to watch him so closely and then trying to emulate him and try to do what he's really good at is great for me. I try to practise those things hard and make sure I'm in good shape."
