Interview | Alexis Mac Allister talks emulating Mascherano, positions and tactics

Alexis Mac Allister responds with a firm nod when asked if he remembers Javier Mascherano's time at Liverpool.

The Reds' new No.10 then goes on to recall those occasions of early-morning wake-ups back in Argentina to get his fix of Premier League football.

"Mascherano for us is a big player," Mac Allister says, speaking to Liverpoolfc.com during the tour of Singapore. “He was very important to the national team, big character, so of course I watched him."

Mac Allister is the seventh player born in Argentina to represent the club, having sealed his switch from Brighton & Hove Albion in early June.
