Alexis Mac Allister

Alexis Mac Allister is carving out a significant role in Liverpool’s midfield with a style of play that combines tenacity and creativity. His ability to retain possession is commendable, often acting as the glue in Liverpool's transitions from defence to attack. He’s got a knack for creating chances, making him a constant threat and an essential piece in Jurgen Klopp’s tactical puzzle. Mac Allister's goal efficiency is notable, adding a surprising edge to his game, which is more often celebrated for its creative spark. His defensive contributions, especially in one-on-one situations, are solid, though there's room for improvement in his penalty area defending, where he occasionally leaves gaps. While his progressive carrying might not turn heads, his passing does—he reliably moves the ball forward, setting the tempo in midfield. This scout report highlights a player who, at 26, is entering his prime and has the potential to be a mainstay in Liverpool's engine room.
