Van De Beek wanted at Selhurst Park choosed Merseyside instead

Frank Lampard is said to have ‘personally phoned’ loan signing Donny van de Beek to convince him to choose Everton over Crystal Palace as his Old Trafford escape route.

Lamps has just taken over in the Goodison Park hotseat and will start his tenure with Man United’s out-of-favour midfielder in his squad for the rest of the season.

Van De Beek was wanted at Selhurst Park before deciding to make the switch to Merseyside instead.

And reports in the player’s native Netherlands suggest Lampard’s personal involvement in the deal is what clinched it for him.

The new Toffees boss is said to have called Van De Beek directly to tell him of his plans, which were enough to convince him to make the move down the M62.

Jurgen Klopp had his goalkeeper Alisson to thank

Jurgen Klopp had his goalkeeper Alisson to thank for 'saving' his 'an embarrassment' in Liverpool's hard-fought win at Crystal Palace.

Liverpool ran out 3-1 winners at Selhurst Park, but the scoreline could have been different had it not been for Brazilian shot-stopper Alisson

The home side called him into action on a number of occasions, but he was more than up to the challenge to deny Jean-Philippe Mateta, Odsonne Edouard and Michael Olise in particular.

And reacting to Alisson's heroics, Klopp told Sky Sports: "I said to him just now, 'Thank you for saving our a**e again'.

"He said, 'That’s my job'. Of course it is very helpful to have a world-class goalkeeper at the back!"

The 29-year-old was beaten once by Edouard, but there was nothing Alisson could do about that as Mateta squared to the Frenchman to tap into an empty net.

That goal denied Alisson an 11th Premier League clean-sheet in just 20 games this season.

The Reds' second goalscorer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also singled out Alisson for praise, saying Liverpool 'haven't got anyone' they would rather than the Brazil international.

Crystal Palace Stadium: Selhurst ParkCrystal Palace 

Selhurst Park – Capacity: 26,074

Selhurst Park is part of the multitude of stadiums in/near London. The stadium and the land were separately owned until the dissolution of the Rock Group in 2009. There had been a discussion about moving to a former home, but serious concerns from fans and the city council have jeopardized those. Crystal Palace has received tentative approval for an expansion to about 34,000.
