It would be a massive waste to buy a couple of top players and have Karius still in net. All the extra goals scored by a top expensive striker would easily be neutralised by Karius' mistakes.


Migs has been one of the worst top flight keepers since he got here so surely we need a new keeper?

Indeed and Karius is not looking much better

Not yet no. But as I keep saying, look back at De Gea in his first season.

Let's give him a chance as he's new and young and the alternative is one that 99% have been calling to be replaced for 2 years or more.

Sturridge has done his usual disappearing act with a 'no return date' injury, the sooner we get rid of unreliable players the better! I don't know what the future holds for him or Danny Ings because we just can't rely on them.

We've had a good start to the season but we really need to reinforce if we want to finish in the top 4. Bearing in mind we are going to lose Mane to the ACON at the beginning of 2017 as well.



Who do we have injured in the defending department? This is where we have a problem.


We will always leave ourselves open and concede goals with the way we play, it hasn't been a problem until the last two games. Although I get extremely frustrated that we can't keep clean sheets but it doesn't matter when your winning games!

If Karius had done his job in the last two games we'd have beaten both Bournemouth and West Ham then this conversation wouldn't be happening.

Personally I feel we need to replace Lovren and get an established goalkeeper like Joe Hart, then the left back situation.

Matip got caught out for their second but has been more than solid but Lovren has been letting us down. We're still scoring so if we can sort that out, then we can have a good crack at it.


Matip was abit unlucky as the deflection took the ball away from him as he was trying to turn, so I would not blame him for that.

Was glad we brought on Klavan for Lovren, rather than Lucas at least.
