Liverpool hero McManaman: Alisson performance worst Premier League performance EVER SEEN

Liverpool hero Steve McManaman has slammed Alisson after their defeat to Manchester City.

Alisson gifted City two goals at Anfield on Sunday as Pep Guardiola's side moved ten points clear of the defending champions with a 4-1 victory.

"The goalkeeper has possibly had the worst game that anyone has seen in the Premier League and for Liverpool," McManaman told Premier League Productions after the match.

"They get back into the game at 1-1 and then inexplicably because he just throws the game away – not throws the game away they're the wrong words – but he puts the game out of Liverpool's reach with really amateurish mistakes.

"It's very unlike him. We know he missed the last game through illness but he was back in today. Even for the fourth goal which you don't want to take away from a lovely strike from Phil Foden but you're almost thinking that's a mistake by the goalkeeper too. It was really uncharacteristic play."
