Liverpool’s trusted shot stopper Alisson Becker insists he's still working tirelessly to improve his game even after surpassing 300 appearances for the club since his 2018 arrival from Roma.

Always seeking improvement

In interview with Liverpool’s official website, the Brazilian stressed that reaching the top level requires complete skill set.

"As goalkeeper, positioning comes first, You need speed, agility, strength and command of set pieces. At Liverpool you also must play well with your feet & operate outside the box"

He added:

"I’m always looking to close gaps in my game because in the Premier League & Champions league you face world class opponents every week. Goalkeepers must always be ready to make the difference"

Special bond with Mohamed Salah

Alisson also reflected on his three assists at Anfield .. all for Mohamed Salah.

"Our connection comes from years together, I know his runs, he knows my ability to pick passes behind the defense. My job's to put him in the right position and he does what he does best .. score goals" he explained.

The Brazilian admitted these moments are among his favorites in football:

"We really enjoy it and our celebrations show the joy we share. That’s part of the beauty of football"
