Liverpool goalkeeper says he expects a reaction from rivals on Sunday after 7-0 drubbing at Anfield last season
Liverpool once sent Alisson to the same dark place at Anfield where Manchester United descended in March. It is why, despite strong evidence to the contrary, he is convinced the only way Erik ten Hag’s players can return on Sunday is “on fire”.
Alisson’s abiding memory of last season’s record 7-0 humiliation of United as it unfolded says a lot about the consummate goalkeeper. “To be honest I was worried about not conceding, as I always do in every game,” he admits. So much for enjoying the moment.
