Reina claims he's here to stay

not even in the squad tonight with all other world cup players other than Sakho and Mignolet back in action, don't expect him to have any future with us but strange that we've taken him to America if we're going to use Jones and Ward ahead of him

Honestly, has Mig made less mistakes than Pepe did in his last season with us? I doubt it. If anything he's been worse than Pepe's last season with us (which was an improvement over the previous 2 or 3 seasons). I realise Pepe's popularity with our fans is at an all-time low but there is no way I would accept the claim Mignolet is the better keeper. He made some shocking errors last season that cost us.

 

Absolute bollocks. Substantiate or fuck off.

Mignolet's distribution is poor as is his command of the area. Dodgy goals include Stoke away, Norwich away and Man City away; some would argue the latter, in the event, cost us the League.

 

Still hear whispers about Hart

 

Might be moving to Timotei, I heard.  Shock swooop of the summer.

The significant difference between Mignolet and Reina is quite simple. One wants to be here and the other one doesn't. 

 

And just one of them make huge howlers regularly. 

 

You can always say players, including goalkeepers, may do better, but Reina is the only one of the two who has gifted the opposition goals with regularity since 2010. He's crap and no amount of mad skillz with his feet are going to change the fact that he's in fact not very good at the core tasks of goalkeeping.

I agree.

We fucked up badly by not going for Begovic last summer.

 

Mignolet is crap, the only thing he his good at is shot stopping and even then he makes plenty of cock ups, Stoke, Chelsea, City and Villa to name a few.

 

He is nervy and indecisive, doesn't command his area at all, he doesn't even try to command it, he doesn't sweep up, he isn't vocal enough to our back 4, if anything he makes them indecisive because they don't trust him, his distribution is average at best.

 

Anyone that thinks he's fine is deluded, it would be very surprising if he drastically improved next season, he has too many flaws to sort out, i expect he will have a similar season to last season and will be sold on next summer as what he delievered last season was clearly not good enough.

Okay, chill out. Ha, my aching sides. Actually he's not crap he's just not good enough and it's been clear from nearly every game I saw him in. Lloris probably would have been the best signing we could have made this summer but as with many transfer wishes they often aren't realistic.

Some would argue that it was the defences fault for letting Negrado clean through.

 

You could also blame Sterling for missing that great chance near the end of that game to equalise. You could also blame Kolo Toure for the two points dropped against West Brom. You could also blame Gerrard for the slip against Chelsea.

 

It's ridiculous to try and pinpoint one individual error to us not wining the title.
