[edit]

[edit]

On his time under manager Jürgen Klopp's final season, Mac Allister added "I played as a lone five [holding midfielder]. I was much more defensive than anything else. We were used to being very direct and perhaps played more long balls."^[72]

2024–2025 season

[edit]

During the 2024–25 season, Mac Allister became a consistent starting midfielder under new manager Arne Slot. He made his Champions League debut on 17 September, starting in a 3–1 away win against Milan.^[73] On 27 November, Mac Allister scored the first goal of Liverpool’s 2–0 win against Real Madrid, which was the club’s first win against the Spanish giants in 15 years.

During a mid-season interview Slot added "My thought process is that [Mac Allister and Gravenberch] are incredible [deep-lying midfielders in a 4–2–3–1 formation]. They're important to me but they're especially important to our attackers."^[77]

International career

[edit]

Youth career, senior debut, and 2020 Summer Olympics

[edit]

Soon after debuting for Argentinos, Mac Allister received a call-up from Claudio Úbeda for the Argentina under-20s.^[78] He was selected for the senior team for the first time in August 2019, ahead of friendlies in the United States in September versus Chile and Mexico.^[79] His international bow arrived in the match with Chile at the Los Angeles Coliseum on 5 September.^[23]

On 1 July 2021, Mac Allister was named in the Argentine Olympic squad for the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, taking place in 2021 due to the previous year's postponement as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.^[80]^[81] He played in Argentina's opening game against Australia starting the match, playing 78 minutes of a 2–0 defeat at the Sapporo Dome in Sapporo on 22 July.^[82] He started the next two group games, a 1–0 victory over Egypt on 25 July again being played in the Sapporo Dome and a 1–1 draw with Spain on 28 July at the Saitama Stadium in Midori-ku, Saitama.

He was named Man of the Match.^[91] After Argentina made the final, Mac Allister started the match against defending champions France where he assisted Ángel Di María's goal to make the score 2–0. In the second half of extra time, Mac Allister was substituted before Argentina won the competition following a penalty shoot-out.^[92]

In June 2024, Mac Allister was called up to represent Argentina at the 2024 Copa América.^[93] He played in all but one of their matches and recorded two assists as they went on to win the tournament, defeating Colombia 1–0 in the final and earning Mac Allister his third senior international trophy in as many years.^[94]
