    Reina was throwing the ball into his own net by the end #distribution

  2. i really don't get why people say Migs is poor at this. I can't recall him dropping a catch!

    As long as he gets found guilty of taking illegal substance in his hair and banned for life I don't care what club he goes to.

    I think I can remember 1. But his issue is not dropping, its not going for the ball in the first place.

    I think at the start he was very Indecisive but end of last year it seems he was told to just go and punch the ball clear and since then and hasn't worried about keeping hold of it he's looked. A lot better.

  10. He used to punch the ball a lot at Sunderland. I think Brod wanted him to play slightly different though. He wanted Migs to catch the crosses and pass the ball out too, that's where the downturn in form came from. When he went back to punching and punting his form picked up loads.

    Migs is a good back up keeper - his shot stopping is good but he can't play with his feet, slow distribution, weak distribution, doesn't know when to come off of his line and has no control of his box.

    Butlandn is quality IMO but he'll be overpriced. Germany has a number of quality young keepers who will cost a fraction. Timo Horn has a buy out clause of £6m.

  12. This as little relevance to your point above, just in response to your repetitive insistence that there is no value in the British market. I agree the British market is expensive but we can't just completely avoid the British market because we need X number of homegrown players in the squad too. We can't buy homegrown players from foreign markets because there aren't any.

    Which is why we continue to invest in young talents like Joe Gomez, Ibe, Sterling AND we also produce our own.

    Unless we get lucky with contracts running down ala Ings and Clyne, it's far too expensive to buy players in this market.

    There is quality here in England - but little value amongst the more established English players.

    Mignolet just reminds me of when we had Westerveld. Completely bang average.
    Lloris, Cech, Hart, De Gea and Courtois all all keepers at rivals and all far better than Mignolet.

    Yet he's kept more clean sheets than them (equal with Hart) with a worse defence in front of him for most of that period?

    And we've conceded more goals in total, and by some distance.

    Clean sheets is a poor metric For goalies and defenders.

    For example - we kept around 10 clean sheets in 13/14 but still conceded around 50 goals.

    Sometimes you need to find someone cheap but with potential. I'm not a big Hart fan - I think he's a bit of a twat - but you can't deny City did great business buying him so cheap and developing him.

    Not worried about our goalkeeper situation, I've got every faith in Klopp to either develop Migs or buy someone better regardless of if I've heard of them or not.

  20. They got Hart and Schmeichel at very young ages. The latter actually got into the team first under Sven too.
