Liverpool manager Arne Slot dey worry say their first-choice goalkeeper, Alisson, go miss some matches for the next few weeks. Dis happen after Alisson suffer hamstring injury during their 1-0 win against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Diogo Jota score the only goal of the match in the ninth minute, but the victory come with a price as Alisson and midfielder Alexis Mac Allister both pick up injuries. Alisson, who already miss their 3-0 win against AFC Bournemouth due to injury, was forced off in the 79th minute after injuring his hamstring.
Third-choice goalkeeper VitÄ›zslav JaroÅ¡ make his Liverpool debut after replacing Alisson, since usual second-choice keeper CaoimhÃn Kelleher was absent due to illness. Slot say Alisson no go fit link up with Brazil for the forthcoming international break and might miss some crucial club matches, including against Chelsea on October 20 and RB Leipzig on October 23 in the Champions League.
“If a player walk off like he does, that normally means he’s not in the Brazil squad, and I don’t expect him to be in the first game afterwards,” Slot say. “It’ll take a few weeks I assume.”
Slot also talk about Mac Allister, who was substituted at half-time due to a groin problem. “He went off because of an injury, how bad it is, that’s difficult for me to judge in this moment,” Slot explain.
The win against Crystal Palace mark Slot’s ninth win in his first 10 matches as Liverpool head coach, the best record for any Liverpool manager in the club’s history. However, Slot no want this statistic to define his tenure. “It’s quite special when you know how many great managers Liverpool have had,” Slot say. “[But] don’t only remember me for this, we are hoping to do more special things.”
