Like Jurgen Klopp we know the strength and weakness of our goalkeepers. I understand Simon Mignolet wants his place back. Loris Karius would also like to play. Unlike Simon Mignolet he has never played in this fixtures before. CROSSES is the main concern non of them has been good in dealing with crosses Please vote
voted Karius, but now i understand what the americans feel like having to choose between a pair of useless buggers.
Mignolet is capable of a ****up. If he makes one what has been achieved? Drop him again and both keepers now have their confidence ****ed? Karius has played a single game at home so far and never had the same back 4 yet. A Karius mistake is at least something he can learn from. Aside from not going top 3-1 is fine.
If confidence, confusion etc played no part then I'd be going with Mignolet. I don't think that can happen though, have to give Karius a run now he's in.
Bollox. Learning from mistake is grossly over rated for keepers. The guy needs practice. Mingolet can punch it after 5 years in the prem and utd are going to load up on setbpiece. We are going to letvone in from set play imo.
Karius will need to learn to deal with midtable setpiece hoofers like Man Utd, why wait? Or you want to sell him after 1 home PL game and 1 away PL game, both of which we won? #harsh
This is a game we cannot afford to lose, would go for Simon Mignolet. I am not convinced with Karius in the crowded penalty area.
Where's the Manninger option? Mignolet isn't a world beater, but he's not as bad as some of you perfectionists make out. He's prone to a catastrophic error now and again, so that would favour Karius, but the latter is an unknown quantity and hasn't particularly impressed me so far. Thankfully, it's not my decision to make, so I'll back whoever the manager picks.
I think we all know who the manager is going to pick though. He got his man in the summer and is now backing him. Its a bit of a pointless 'debate' in my eyes because we all know who is going to start and I don't think Karius has done that badly in the few games he's had, a few shaky moments but nothing that would be worthy of being dropped.
I'm sure you're right that he was bought to replace the erratic Mignolet, I'm just a bit concerned that he hasn't shown a great deal of confidence so far, and hasn't filled me with it. I'm not writing him off at all, he needs time to settle probably, but we really don't want to drop points at this stage and lose any impetus. It's definitely a pointless debate in that Klopp will make his choice regardless of what we think, but that's never stopped us before.
