Presumably nothing left in safe (3,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

all right

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'safe' is the definition.
(all right means safe or secure)

'presumably nothing left' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'left' could be 'al' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'al' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for all right that I've seen before include "Completely one-sided" , "Agreed" , "What's clearly acceptable" , "Okay" , "no mistake!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
