Mac Allister reveals who's the best coach he has worked with

Alexis Mac Allister has named Roberto De Zerbi as the best coach he has had in his career. The Liverpool midfielder's comments come as he reflects on his time at Brighton under De Zerbi's leadership.

De Zerbi, who is now managing Marseille in Ligue 1, left a strong impression on the Argentinian during their time together at Brighton. The Italian's tactical approach and ability to connect with players earned widespread praise, with Mac Allister placing him above any other managers he has worked under - including Jurgen Klopp and Arne Slot.

"He’s a crazy guy, he’s Italian. I love him. He’s the best manager I’ve ever had. The passion he gives for football is special and his tactical side is amazing. He makes you feel good. Since the first day I met him, he was amazing with me and that’s why I said he was the best coach," said Mac Allister on The Rest is Football podcast.

Now focused on his role at Anfield, Liverpool's No.10 remains committed to adapting to Slot's style while maintaining the confidence and lessons learned during his time at Brighton.
