'He's brilliant!' - Liverpool defenders hail new goalkeeper Alisson

Brazil goalkeeper Alisson is breeding confidence throughout the Liverpool defence, says Andrew Robertson.

Alisson arrived at Anfield for £65 million ($83m/€71m) from Roma last month – a move that established him briefly as the most expensive keeper of all time before Kepa Arrizabalaga joined Chelsea from Athletic Bilbao.

The 25-year-old made it three clean sheets from as many Premier League games on Saturday, saving brilliantly from Pascal Gross late on to secure a 1-0 win over Brighton and Hove Albion.

"He's been brilliant since he came in," Robertson told Liverpool's official website, with Alisson's footwork – most notably an impudent dink over Brighton forward Anthony Knockaert – having also caught the eye.
