Loris Karius

[Jairzinho]

Anyone disappointed with this should reassure themselves with the knowledge that Mignolet is shit as well.

[Red House]

Wenger does things like this, I don't think it works. You have to play your best keeper.

 

I hope we go for a proper keeper at some stage but I don't think we will.

 

Every manager has a blind spot.

Worked okay for Real and Barca. Ancelotti won the CL rotating Diego Lopez and Casillas while Barca did the double playing Bravo in the league and Ter Stegen in the CL.

 

The only issue is we are talking about freaking Mignolet and Karius here. But, I don't really find a need to discriminate between the two. They are equally shite.

[magicrat]

But significantly less shit than Karius. 

[INTORRESTING]

Which is depressing.

[Numero Veinticinco]

Disagree. Different types of issue is all.

[m0e]

Disagree. Different types of issue is all.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Neither can I. The only thing I can think of is that Karius will face less of an aerial bombardment in the CL. He might get better protection from the refs and work himself into some form.

 

Regardless, I think it's the wrong decision to predetermine selection in this way. It should always be made on a game by game basis.

Klopp is far from the first top manager to make such a preselection. Not saying I agree, I don't have a strong opinion on this, but I do see the logic in telling the goalies I trust you, and I'm gonna judge you over a run of games rather than game by game.

That remains to be seen, I think. Karius hasn't played enough to properly make up a an opinion on him.

He certainly hasn't played properly, 

Mig is a known quantity , not great but known. We can get out of the group stages with him,

Karius could quite possibly cost us our place in the competition. IMO he no 3 keeper.

[Captain]

Like I said, he hasn't played enough.

 

Mignolet has played for years, he isn't good enough. 

[magicrat]

Like I said, he hasn't played enough.

 

Mignolet has played for years, he isn't good enough. 

 

The bottom line is we are taking ridiculous chances with these guys and should have replaced the pair of them in the summer, Beggars belief that a club with Liverpool's status and ambitions should be fucking about with these two clowns 

[chris71]

Think we'll regret this decision. Not a big fan of it at all.

Completely agree. Not seen nearly enough time in the side to warrant a decision. Far too young to be written off as a GK as well

Yeah I hope he proves me wrong and it works a treat.  I just have flashbacks of Dudek being earmarked for the cup competitions with Rafa, that didn't end well. 

[Captain]

I think he played well tonight.

 

And there was a clear change in how to deal with back passes, no fucking about.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

I think he played well tonight.

Agree, he just got rid.

2 shots on target 2 goals.. he didn't play 'well'.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Todays game obviously gave no real answers. Not that one single game ever will for a goalkeeper.

 

But clear signs that he's better with his feet than Mignolet, which to be fair shouldn't be benchmark.

 

Also his ability to start counter attacks, mainly by throwing, was decent.

Commands his area much better- no where near as good a shot stopper though.

[Grinch]

That sure as fuck cant be based on Migs time at Liverpool. Rarely makes a save you wouldnt expect any professional keeper to make.

 

God knows hows he mamaged this good shot stopper reputation.

[TheHowieLama]

Does he have an upside down L carved in his neck?

[VladimirIlyich]

2 shots on target 2 goals.. he didn't play 'well'.

Nothing much he could do about either.

It doesn't matter who we play in goal as we will almost always concede due to those defenders in front being ridiculously prone to individual errors,very frequently.

[Numero Veinticinco]

We need a new keeper. A stand out number one who can command his area, stop shots, and be vocal.

[andyj]

give ward a shot over the other 2 clowns  ........cant be any worse 

[razor]

If I had a decent spanner, one that was functional and did the job required, I wouldn't think I'd be better trying something else to try and do the job of the spanner.

 

I'd still look enviously at the adjustable spanner that was expertly forged and could do multiple jobs well, of course.

 

But I wouldn't use a spoon instead of a spanner.
