KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Fight for the number 1 spot

I see Karius has decided to try for the no1 spot from the 1st game after deciding to say no to the German Olympic team.

Nice to see he's up for the fight

Hopefully he starts in goal for us at the start of the season. We are in major need to replace mignolet with a consistent goalkeeper. He made far too many mistakes last year, and i still will never understand how he didnt catch that ball against neewcastle last year. Maybe Karius has been given assurances from klopp about the possibility of starting in goal for us thats why he isnt going to the olympics? Think the zika virus is another con against any spectator or athlete going to rio.

That wont be an issue for Migs if he chooses to go. He can't catch anything.

HAHAHA shouldve seen that one coming, its true tough he cant catch a ball for sh*t.

Youtube isnt always the greatest place for seen wat a player is like but does anyone know if this karius is good? Ive only watched a few vids of him and its hard to make a call on him.

I'm really pleased he has decided to withdraw from the Olympics.

After a "chat with klopp" which klopp probably said "please don't leave me with that Belgian pr1ck I need you"

There is no way he is worse than mignolet so he is an upgrade.

I've never seen Karius play so can't comment on how good he is. But I have seen Migs and surely he can't be any worse? If he starts as No.1 I imagine he'll make some mistakes until he settles but hopefully will be much more consistent and be better with his decision making.

Yea its hard to believe some of the mistakes mignolet made for us. But if my memory serves me right i dont remember mignolet making that many mistakes at sunderland. Maybe he was just lucky, but i do think the goalkeeping staff at liverpool have some part in it as well.

It's still beggars belief we have Achterberg as GK Coach!
Mignolet & Karius should coach themselves for what he's worth!!!

Whereas Daniella can catch any known disease/illness/strain known to mankind...maybe we should throw him in goal?
