'There is always a moment': Dutch great Ruud Gullit claims Alisson shouldn't be Brazil No 1

"What I have with Alisson is that there is always a moment that he turns off, especially with the ball at his feet," Ruud Gullit said on beIN Sports as he questioned if the Liverpool keeper should be Brazil's first choice.

"That's where he makes mistakes. Unbelievable. There is one moment like that. He always has that. What is this? He has that.

"I like the other one (Ederson). Yes, I like him more. He is so good with his feet. I have a better feeling when he is behind than without."

For some reason, Alisson is becoming quite unpopular among pundits - and that is after an outstanding performance for Brazil against South Korea in the World Cup Round of 16.

Before that game, ex-Man United keeper Peter Schmeichel made the same point as Gullit, only for Alisson to prove him wrong. He will have another chance to do so in the quarter-final against Croatia on Friday afternoon.
