Former Liverpool striker John Aldridge argues that Caoimhin Kelleher deserved more time in goal with his performances in Alisson’s absence.
Caoimhin Kelleher has been magnificent and I actually think Arne Slot has got a really big decision to make in the next few weeks,” Aldridge wrote in a column for the Liverpool Echo.
Once Alisson is fit, I don’t think it’s fair if Kelleher gets demoted to the bench.
I think he’s been absolutely first-class.“He’s been faultless with everything he has done in the games, and I think Ali will be looking at it and be embarrassed if he went back in because he’s done such a good job.
So it’s a big dilemma what he does in that position.
Kelleher has been reliable in goal with Alisson injured. However, Slot has made it clear that the Brazilian remains his first-choice goalkeeper.
