an appreciation post, alisson's performances has been very good this season, a very huge contributor to our defensive performance this season.

maybe as we haven't even had a decent keeper for so long, that i might be exaggerating, bt i've never seen a better keeper (that especially suits our style of play) in a liverpool shirt. and i guess im not that old as well to have seen other keepers!

Grobbelaar was just unreal. I have a feeling Alisson will be right up there as well, he's the best keeper for me since Grobbelaar.

Haha Elisha Scott.
I saw Clemence and Brucie and, I tell you, the more I see of Alisson the more I’m convinced that he’s the real deal. Cracking keeper.

Clemence was the man but I prefer Alison to Bruce. Bruce was pure class but erratic. Alison is the full deal, the whole package. We got ourselves a bargain.

Too soon to say of course, but based on what I've seen, and barring injuries and someone dangling 300 Million in front of our noses (in a couple of years from now), I'd say that Alisson will prove to be as good as Clemence. Fingers crossed.

Tommy Lawrence the flying pig what a legend.

I started watching The Mighty Reds when Tommy Lawrence was in goal. In my humble opinion, the best goalie we have had in the last 50 years was Pepe Reina. I have endless arguments about it with the guys I go to the match with, but I really do rate him above even Ray Clemence.

I started watching when Bruce was in goal, was watching Ray in goal but to young to know what was good and not. But Alison is the best I have seen his Positioning is out of this world seems to know where the ball is going before they even shot.

I should have added that Alisson Becker is shaping up to be even better than Pepe. What a signing!

Wait, hold on a minute Wirral, you can't seriously rate Reina over Ray Clemence and Grobbelaar? now I'm certain you're just having people on, is that you Walter ;) lol.

Clemence was brilliant - I haven't seen a GK who instilled confidence in our defence with his calmness under pressure up until Becker (though Reina went close at times) . And sorry but the match fixing smear associated with Grubelaar means I will never talk about him as one of our greats.

Salah, yes I really rate Reina over Clemence. I used to watch Liverpool home and away, all over England and Europe, in the 1970s and 1980s when there wasn’t much live televised football so Clemence’s performances were not subject to the same intense scrutiny as Reina’s. In my opinion (admittedly, not one shared by any Red who I have spoken to about it) is that once he adjusted to the Premier League, for 6 seasons or so he was a better keeper than Clemence. Grobbelaar just doesn’t come into the equation - far too erratic. No wind up mate.

{Ed025's Note - big shout that WW, having seen a lot of both myself i have to say its not even close mate...clemence is the best by a country mile, of course that is just my opinion..

Ed025, I know I am in a minority amongst Liverpool fans on this, possibly a minority of 1, but I can only offer an honest opinion. While we are talking about goalkeepers, how do you rate Clemence compared to Big Nev?

{Ed025's Note - now thats a tough one WW, clemence had a presence and was the first to be in sinc with the back 4, they were a great side then and some games he would have very little to do than pull off a world class save, his concentration level was amazing and i cant ever remember him having a stinker or even a pickford moment, big nev was also an excellent keeper mate, more renowned for saving games and superb agility even when the blues were not at their best, its really hard to choose between them but being a blue i will have to side with our bin man.. :)

Each to their own Wirral mate, you're without a doubt the first person I've ever heard say anything like that lol :) probably the last as well. Reina imo wasn't even half as good as Clemence or Grobbelaar where as Alisson I think is right up there.
