Liverpool’s midfield has been shining bright this season, with Ryan Gravenberch stealing the spotlight while Alexis Mac Allister plays a crucial supporting role. Gravenberch’s stellar performances have earned him a player-of-the-month award for September, but Mac Allister’s quiet effectiveness should not be overlooked. The Argentina international’s smart and steady displays have allowed Gravenberch to thrive in his newfound role at the No.6 position.
However, a recent injury scare during the Crystal Palace game has raised concerns about Mac Allister’s availability for the upcoming fixtures. While he remains optimistic about his recovery, the exact extent of his injury is still unknown. The two-week break for international fixtures could give him time to regain fitness before Chelsea’s visit on October 20, but fans will have to wait anxiously for updates.
Manager Arne Slot is faced with a dilemma regarding Mac Allister’s participation in Argentina’s upcoming World Cup qualifiers. Should the midfielder join his national team for the games against Venezuela and Bolivia, or stay back for treatment at Liverpool’s training center? The decision could impact his recovery and availability for the crucial match against Chelsea.
As uncertainty looms over Mac Allister’s injury, Liverpool supporters will be hoping for a speedy recovery for the midfielder who has become an integral part of the team’s success this season. His partnership with Gravenberch has been instrumental in Liverpool’s strong start to the campaign, and his presence on the field will be sorely missed if he is sidelined due to injury. Stay tuned for updates on Mac Allister’s condition and his potential involvement in the upcoming fixtures.
