Jurgen Klopp paid Alisson Becker the ultimate tribute after admitting he would have 'paid double' to bring the Brazil international's match defining skills to Anfield.
Alisson cost Liverpool £65million when he arrived from Roma in July; it was a world record fee for less than two weeks but, already, he has shown the business to be smart and his extraordinary last-minute save from Arkadiusz Milik propelled Liverpool into the Champions League knockout phase.
His 12th clean sheet of the season proved to be crucial as Liverpool's 1-0 win over Napoli was enough to see them progress and an exultant Klopp was over the moon with the 26-year-old, who has made a huge difference to the team.
Klopp said: 'If I knew Alisson was this good – I would have paid double. Wow, what a game. I am not sure a manager could be prouder of a team than I am.
