KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum JK's possible keepers ???

You all slate Mignolet and then you suggest we buy Butland or Valdez. Both of those are a downgrade.

I don't recall slating Mignolet.

If we tighten up defensively under Klippity Klopp we may not need a new goalie.

Fresh start for all the players and that may be the making of several of them.

I have hope for Migs. The way he turned his game around last season was incredible.... dare I say it, a show of character !!

Klop will put an arm around his shoulder and the lad will come good.

migs imo is one of the best shot stoppers in the league, those 2 saves against everton were world class.

he definitely needs to improve his command of the area though. I think that has to do with the defence as well though. its clear that the keeper and defence aren't on the same page. thy either don't get along, or don't train as a unit. the keeper and the defence need to be one unit and have confidence in each other. hopefully klopp can sort this out. migs has potential I think but would still like to see some reinforcement.

im always sceptical of taking keepers from lower clubs (was sceptical of mignolet) they have a lot more shots to show off too. any keeper in the premier league should be able to look good with a lot of chances. look at begovic, everyone thought he was a world beater and he has looked like puss at Chelsea.

its a two way street, your defence by limiting shot attempts makes a keeper look good and your keeper by making one or two key saves a game make the defence look good.

Weidenfeller is not an improvement on Mignolet. Everytime I've seen him play looks nervous at makes mistakes.

Agreed

35 years old yes mid 30's! Too old at this point imo!

I would look at la liga for keeper.I've seen great performances from a number of keepers in that league.

Joe Hart is an above average keeper, but he's not great. Every other time I see him in the CL he looks like absolute garbage. Butland is every bit as good, maybe even better already, but will never get the opportunity until he plays for a bigger club.
