The club has shown it is not ready for life in a Alisson Becker-less world. As it were, because of fitness issues for the Brazilian, he has made 20 appearances in all competitions this season for Liverpool.

He has a long pass completion percentage of just 43% in the Champions League this season, which takes away a dangerous element that the Reds have been accustomed to having for years. While he has had some nice moments, the penalty save against Erling Haaland, among a few others, overall, his debut campaign with Liverpool has not done a lot to convince of his long-term upside.

Even the last few years, as his injuries have flared up more and more, when he is on the pitch, there is an extra calm about things. Mamardashvili is a solid keeper right now, but if he wants to match even a percentage of the excellence we have seen from his predecessor, he simply has to be better everywhere.
