There’s often been ill feeling when key players and coaches have left Brighton, but not with Alexis Mac Allister. He left for Liverpool with class and that’ll never be forgotten. Couldn’t be happier for him, an excellent player and a true gent to match. 👏🇦🇷

Alexis Mac Allister, that is meteoric ☄️
