Ward is not even at the same level as Karius or Migs. You are expecting someone with no top flight experience to be our no 1.
He should have been loaned to Huddersfield this season. In fact the entire season has been messed up for Ward.
Karius is now our number 1, which is why Migs has his knickers in a twist. The conjecture is based on NOTHING. How do you know??? Answer - you don't. I'd say Ward has a better CV having had the best season of the three keepers to get a team promoted. What great 'experience' does Migs or Karius have? They look nervy every time they hit the field for us. Don't talk such rot! You don't see them in training and never see Ward anyway, so how can you know? CV? He hasn't even played enough games in the EPL and was going to be tried in the league cup. Maybe he'll get a chance in the FA cup. That said, what did Mignolet expect when he let the Arsenal 2nd goal in?

Au revoir Monsieur Mignolet you tried your best....it is funny how he is worried about warming the bench for Belgium cos that's exactly what he will be doing bar an injury to Courtois.I am not sure he realises that in order to nail down a position at any club you have to merit it and well let's be honest he has been given umpteen chances only to consistently not deliver the required standard that the club yearns for in this most important of positions.

I think it's time for one of the senior Koptalk Members to have the ability to boot Spangles out the forum whenever he appears under one of his many disruptive guises. That Member doesn't have to be known to have a Moderator ability, it can be done anonymously to give them the ability to stop the disruption and allow the forum to flow.

Ward just can't be that bad can he? If pre season friendly's are anything to go by, he should be No 1.

Lets not be so harsh on Migs. He tried his best. Its not his fault he isnt good enough. It's also not his fault the club have persisted with him for so long. No reason to think he hasn't given his all to keep his place. Like I say he's just hit his ceiling and its time for both parties to move on. Do you know that he thought he should be n1 ahead of Courtois in the Belgium team?

Do you know that he thought he should be n1 ahead of Courtois in the Belgium team? He said he has his eyes on the Belgium gk spot and is confident of dislodging Courtois after helping liverpool get a top 4 spot. Whats wrong in Mignolet believing in himself and wanting to play for his country? He's a professional sportsmen, competitiveness comes with the territory. Courtois blowing his lid over Mig saying he wants to dislodge him (because of course he wants to) is just showing him as a massive pansy scared of challenge. I think you're very quick to think so negatively of people. It's not only that, a couple of years ago he was not on talking terms with Courtois as he thought he deserved the place more than the latter. Read my post again as you don't seem to understand, I said he thought he should be n1 ahead of Courtois not he wanted to fight to get the n1 spot. Do you think like him, ie, he is better than Courtois? He has a big chip on his shoulder, thus all his fuss right now. If he goes it won't be a big miss. I think you have a problem reading posts, not the first time.

Migs obviously isn't Liverpool standard, but on the evidence, neither is Karius. It seems to me that Klopp is just gambling that somehow and for some unknown reason Karius might suddenly find his mojo. In the game against Everton I thought VvD might blow a gasket trying to get Karius off his line and claim a ball, and yet Klopp suddenly sees him as his number one keeper. What evidence have we seen in competitive play to suggest Karius is anywhere near good enough. Klopp must be gambling here, therefore would it not make more sense to gamble with Ward who given the chance might well prove to be the best of the three? After all we've seen the poverty of the other two, why not give us a peek at what Ward can or can't do?

I think Klopp sees no future in Mignolet which everybody can understand and he is giving Karius to prove himself else he will also be kicked off. Regarding Ward, I think he believes in him for the future and wants to get him ready. It's Karius' last chance else he's gone in summer while Mignolet will go unless he wants to be number 2 which he won't accept.

Let's not put all our eggs on one basket and hope that Ward is the answer. We still have Bogdan to choose from as well.....

De Gea was given a year. Most outfield players are given a year.
Karius has had about 7 games on the bounce. He hasn't shown much in those appearances except his distribution.
He needs a chance he seems to be allowed it now
