Well I'd say he's pretty well up there with the top keepers IMO, though Oblak would be better. As I said however, Alison would be a significant upgrade on Karius, if we don't go the whole hog for Oblak. We need an upgrade, based on Karius's performances, if we're to challenge for anything this season, why should we risk failure when we have the money to bring in a significant upgrade?

It doesn't sound like Oblak would be that much more based on the prices being quoted for Alisson, I'd prefer we went all out for Oblak, then the GK position is sorted for about 10 years.

Yeah that's the dream scenario ecnirp, and given Klopp's predeliction for going for the best fit for his plans, he might just do that...we can but dream. But I'd settle for Alison or the Madrid number two even, given my dread of facing a season with what we have.
Now having said that, Ward might be the makings of a world class keeper for all we know, he hasn't been tested, but it's a risk I'd prefer we don't take until such time as he is tested, and wtf didn't Klopp try him last season when he was fiddling and arseing about with Migs and Karius?

Ward will never good enough,if he was he'd already be number 1.


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

Klopp has tried both Mignolet and Karius, so now he wants to try Ward

It's looking like Klopp has already burned his budget, now we are hearing how Ward is now going to be given a chance!

i cant believe that people are saying oblak is too much money, even at 90 mill, we paid 75 for VVD. yes we needed a top CB.
but we also need a keeper, and a keeper is far more important that one defender

the way we are as a football club and finance wise we made a big mistake spending 75 million on a centre half, its alrite for big clubs like City, United, Chelsea Madrid and Barca to spend it as they can justify the outlay but for us to do it was ridiculous. We as a football club would of benefited more as a team by buying two quality centre halfs for that sum rather than for one player, now we are in a position that we still need another centrehalf and goalkeeper and we are financially strapped...Liverpool's decision making on players and outlay is appalling...


Name me a quality Centre half available for 30 million. I'll wait.

Virgil has been boss. First people complain we spend too little, and now we spent too much? Give me a break.

How many times have people complained about our quality in Midfield? He's one of the best box to box mids in Europe. And he looks a monster in red so far.
