Alisson has been praised for his ability to produce crucial saves and brilliance in one-on-one situations, as well as his positioning, distribution and consistency; he is rated by some in the sport as the best goalkeeper in the world. Alisson cites former Barcelona goalkeeper Víctor Valdés as an inspiration, due to his ability to play out from the back, as well as Manuel Neuer, for his 'sweeper keeper' style. Alisson is also known for his speed and timing when rushing off his line, as well as his ability to clear or challenge for the ball with his feet outside the area, or get to ground quickly to collect or parry the ball inside the box; moreover, due to his distribution, he is capable of playing the ball out from the back quickly with his hands as well as his feet, and also has the ability to launch attacks, or pick out midfielders or attackers with his long goal kicks. His skills with the ball at his feet and composure in possession have even seen him take on opponents on occasion, when put under pressure, and allow his teams to play with a high defensive line. Standing at 1.93 m (6 ft 4 in), Alisson is a goalkeeper who is recognized for his agility and athleticism. He is known for his hot-stopping and reflexes, and for a goalkeeping style built on anticipation, positioning, and composure rather than spectacular saves. He is also regarded for his handling and ability to claim crosses and commands his area. Alisson is regarded by some sport pundits, due to his statistical performances, as the most proficient goalkeeper in the Premier League, and arguably even the best in the world, when left in an individual battle with an opponent. His playing style has also drawn comparisons with compatriots Júlio César, Muriel and Cláudio Taffarel in the media.
