It's early days for Karius, so I do not think we can judge him either way until he has a good run of games, Goal Keepers take time to get used to the players around them, especially CB, to work together.
The fact he came for the ball is encouraging, we need a keep to dominate the box, he's also been out with a hand injury, so he was probably concerned about/protecting that, it's only natural.
He looks like he will put the pressure on Mignolet, which is important and we have a decent alternative for Mignolet if he is not available/dropped. He is certainly an upgrade on Bogdan.

He is certainly an upgrade on Bogdan. completely agree. agree a lot hmm from corners does our keeper really have to look for it every time, don't we have enough height and good markers who are alert and first priority is to get it clear? agree a lot, should he then of come and caught the cross from bent's header chance I know our defenders dropped deep so it made it harder for him to do that, just wondering when they will develop that trust.

A keeper has to use judgement, if its out swinging sometimes they have to go too far and cannot realistically get to the ball, especially if there is a big group of players to come through. Saying that, I always think its best when a 6ft 4in Goalkeeper comes flying out as it will put off the attackers and probably make sure they don't get a clean contact with the ball, as the attacker generally has one eye on the keeper when they start coming at them !!!

You've obviously never been a keeper and don't know what to look for in a performance but that's ok,I forgive your ignorance. If your worry is based on what little we've seen of him so far then you're way past any counselling I'm prepared to offer you. ahhaha.
