Paul Merson says Liverpool are completely different without one “unbelievable footballer”
The pundit has shared his high praise for the Spain international, claiming the midfielder is a “class act”.
“Thiago Alcantara is an unbelievable footballer, he’s a class act. When he doesn’t play, Liverpool are a completely and utterly different team and we’ve seen that a handful of times already this season,” Merson said, via Sportskeeda.
“When he first joined, there was a lot of talk that he slowed Liverpool down a little, but after he adapted to the pace of the Premier League, there’s been no stopping him! I just like the way he plays and moves.”
“He’s always looking forward and is more than comfortable with playing one-touch football when the situation calls for it. I like players who see things on the football pitch before they happen and he’s one of them, which is why I’m such a big fan of him.”
