KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Mignolet has to go!

Kolo's mistake was Kolo's fault.

Compare his this season to De Gea's first at United or Sczesny's at Arsenal. Mignolet has made far fewer mistakes. Sometimes a keeper is perfect from the get go, but young keepers especially often need time. This is a big step up for him from a relegation scrapping team like Sunderland. The way he's expected to play is different. He's certainly shown enough quality to merit another season.

i don't think so and if the rumours are correct we are already looking for replacements. he has cost us more than he has helped us and seems too normal for a keeper. keepers need to be mad and a bit arrogant , he is visibly unsure .

Are we not looking for replacements for Jones more than Migs?

navas is a full international. he is a mig replacement

Ah cool. Haven't heard much in the way of rumours apart from trials for players who wouldn't be expected to break through next season and that sort

Who is Navas?

Don't you mean Valdes?

Too normal for a keeper? Spare me. Every body was creaming themselves over him at the start of the season. He's made a couple mistakes, but he hasn't done anything disastrous.

He is doing fine, the defence is the real issue.
The opposition should not be given easy chances (ideally).

He has made some brilliant saves, as well as some mediocre ones.
Everyone is always looking for a scapegoat.

I haven't read any rumours about replacing Mignolet. He hasn't been much better than Reina and replacing Reina was not a priority, just like replacing Mignolet right now is not a priority. I know you want Bergovich, but keepers at lower level clubs have lots of opportunities to prove themselves and their mistakes go unnoticed compared to the number of saves they end up doing, it was not very different with Mignolet at Sunderland.

Our problem is not the keeper, not even the defence IMO, it is our midfield which has an unbalanced number of attacking players. Playing SG, JA and JH will already be an improvement, but the real difference will come if we buy a top ball playing DM to play alongside SG.
