If we ignore the fact its Gary Neville who raised the issue, it could have been Ray Clemence, its not important, whats important is what he highlighted was spot on.
Some things are obvious particularly with keeprs examples with Mignolet
. Too stuck to his line
. Communication weakness
. not great at commanding the area
. Good shot stopper
Not so obvious was this strange starting position of hunched down. Neville highlighted it and backed it up with evidence. Amazingly it shows how close Mignolet got to Jagielkas shot on Saturday, not far off at all and had he stood tall his reach would hve increased and he would most likely have palmed it over or out. Ditto the goals v City and Arsenal last year.
As I said yesterday the annoying thing about Neville picking it up is not that he picks it up but it appears a pundit is better at finding weakness in our keeper then our keeper coach!
