Maybe I'm just used to seeing Mignolet in goal and thinking at least it's not that bad.

I think he deserves another season. We've had worse players get more time than him and Mignolet was given more chances than anyone deserved.

If he is shocking next year then yeah he needs replacing. But he is young and Klopp saw something in him when he signed him.


Just curious, What has he done to give you this belief ?

He is not as bad as a lot of people are making out. The final was a disaster. Take out the final and on the lead, up to it, he has been good.


The top keepers on the market at the moment are not going to be that easy to bring in. Some of the names I have seen thrown about. Butland. The likes of Butland are no better than Karius and if they are it is minimal. These guys in clubs like stoke get pelted with shots from outside the box all day long as they play a defensive style of football. So there save stats look good.

Put Butland and co in the Liverpool team where there is only 3 shots on target and those 3 shots on target are from 6 yards out because we are an attacking team and teams look to hit us on the counter and see how well his stats look then.

He seems to have all the attributes you want for a keeper. When he's bad. He's awful. But some of his saves this season were brilliant. I remember one against everton. Bolasie out side the area. He had no right to get to it. He had some really positive games.

He seems to either be too confident. Or have zero confidence.

Maybe I'm just hopeful.

I'd love to have a beer with Igor.

I see we're sniffing around Lazio keeper Thomas Strakosha, no idea if he's decent or not

Karius is at world level GK, fact.... De Gea messed up and Caballero (what ever his name is), also f'd up...

They done it at WC for national side.. Ergo Karius at same level as them..

As loads here would have De Gea then surely Karius can be classed in same bracket??

Is he still a Liverpool player? Surely he has been moved on quietly without fuss?
I mean it is sooo obvious Klopp fooked up big time by ever, ever letting this lad stand between the posts for LFC.

If he has not been hosed out the door like the unfortunate dropping that he is I will be quite cross. Indeed!!!

Some harsh realities there mate. But that is the difference in football at the top level these days. If we do not upgrade forget about City or United in the PL next season. A season long fight for 3rd or 4th from the outset will be a hard battle without a new keeper.

Indeed. We need a new one. Not a prospect. One that comes in and instantly starts to save goals we have previously shipped in.
