      Another summer blunder from Jürgen sadly. Obvious as a day is long he doesn't rate mignolet ... seems like he is messing with his head now.

      I saw enough of karius last season to not want to see him again. Never going to make it here. As for playing him in the cl games ... just what did karius do to get us in the cl exactly?? Mignolet earned his wages in the run in when we literally crawled over the line.

      The upshot is that instead of stacking up on attacking players ... a goalkeeper Jürgen actually rates and a top class centre back should have been a priority over the summer. The reality is that we did not make 1 bid to improve either position.

      Glaring weaknesses ignored ... and guess what ... the same old problems.

      He is not helping himself making 2/3 changes to his defence every game and now messing with the head of his self professed 'number 1' goalkeeper.

      I said it years ago when Mignolet got his 5 year contract, what is Klopp thinking? Sign a bad defender... goalkeeper is the one position you have to have quality, otherwise it badly impacts everything! It's the make or break of many managers.

      Still see Mignolet is the target for our 5-0 defeat.

      Where Mane got sent off, the manager threw the towel in (which was a lot worse than anything poor Simon did in that game), and his players followed suit, so it was all down to Mignolet to save everyone and everything. F**k me, you can't make this sh*t up.

      Stats now where "difficulty" is thrown into the mix. Difficulty and stats? They're not really stats anymore in the truer sense because some body's subjectivity is the emphasis of the stats rather than measurable objective data.

      Good shot stopper is Simon. Doesn't have too much else going for him, it's about right that he is termed average, was rated as the 8th best keeper in the league last season. That's probably about right, people,peddling he is the worst keeper in the league and adding all this other baggage to their narrative about him and fast becoming white noise.
      I don't blame Mignolet for the City game, but Mignolet isn't a good shot stopper, he is sh*t.
      I am not going to post stats or post youtube videos of his fails, I just watch games and can see how crap he is. The defence is on egg shells around him too.

      Apologies if you don't think that letting one in for every two shots isn't a problem. Suddenly we've got to the stage where Mignolet doesn't have to make any saves. All he has to do is not make mistakes. Because that's good enough for some isn't it?

      He was the man of the match  for me it could  have been 8-0  I can't  blame him for the 5 goals.

      So because he kept the score to a respectable 5 - 0 rather than 8 he gets man of the match from you?

      Here's his season stats for shots on target to goals conceded so far...

      Watford 4 on target 3 conceded
      Hoffenheim 4 on target 1 conceded
      Palace 1 on target 0 conceded
      Hoffenheim 3 on target 2 conceded
      Man City 10 on target 5 conceded.

      Also let's not forget, he also picked 2 offside goals out of his net in the city game too, small margines and it could have been 7 conceded.

      So out of 22 shots on target in 5 games he has conceded 11 goals.

      That's 5 f**king games. Only 3 of which are league games. Last season we conceded 42 goals in 38 league games.

      In just the 3 games he has started in the league this season he has 8 goals. That's almost fifth of last season's total already.

      Absolutely dreadful.

      More mediocre acceptance. You are basically saying it would have been 8-0 with an open net.

      Name a worst keeper than Mignolet to wear a Liverpool shirt then. Hope there will be stats to back it up.
      Even Brad Jones has a better shot to save ratio and won something.
      Klopp is losing credibility for using Mignolet now, of course he is.
      He does **** all. If Klopp still uses him he is just as complacent.

      Maybe you don't but this thread came back to life in the wake of it and is akin to kicking the cat.

      All eyes should be on Klopp.

      Failed to bring in a replacement.

      Failed to bring in defensive replacements.
       
      Failed to defend set pieces.

      Failed to defend second balls.

      Failed to achieve a defensive system where his attacking one takes priority.

      He buys attacking players - like adding turbos to a V6

      But doesn't do anything for his flat tyres - and where we ship goals in is a collective issue not an individual one.

      It's got to be true.

      If he is THE worst ever keeper to play for Liverpool and is the worst keeper in the league and is that bad, then as sure as night follows day Klopp has to be losing credibility to be keep playing this utter liability.

      Can't have it both ways.

      More mediocre acceptance. You are basically saying it would have been 8-0 with an open net.

      To be fair, in the Man City game, there were 13 attempts on goal and 11 of them were from open play. Mignolet saved 6/11, 4 of which were before the red card and 2 after the red.

      Of the 5 goals let in, I don't think Mignolet could have saved any of them except (maybe) for the first goal. But, it was a one on one situation and the striker always has a better chance of scoring from one on one.

      You have a case in general, but, the performance in the Man City game was not a case in point.

      Goal number 4 he should have saved, but you are correct, it is not about the City game.

      Simon Mignolet's game notes this season.

      * Pretend to look 'look urgent' but take about 1 minute to take a kick out from goal which barely reaches the half way line and is headed on by an opposition player who are set off on an unlikely attack leaving you two against three. Failing that a goal kick over the heads of everyone and into row Z of the Main Stand is always an available option - it's a part of the game in rugby so it must be ok for football.

      * When taking a goal kick make sure to shoo everyone away upfield. If no one is in your half of the field it will make your 30 yard goal kicks look bigger.

      * When making a pass out from the back make sure you pass out to the player who is marked by two men. Don't bother with the man on the left or the right who is in acres of space.

      * Make sure you look like you're coming for a ball that you have no intention of catching or punching. If you unsettle the defence, that's their problem, not yours.

      * If you fail to catch or punch an easy free kick or corner just flap about like a fish out of water being electrocuted and with any luck it might just hit you on the way into the net making it look like you tried everything.

      * After full time and you've sent out a Churchillesque tweet to your gullible supporters online, you take to the LFC Offal to remind everyone that the 'team must learn from this' and that you as a keeper are improving and getting better, making sure to remind everyone that you are a penalty saving specialist just in case you run out of things to say.

      This frustrates the hell out of me. He does it EVERY single f**king game!!! Not just with the kick but with the f**king throw as well. He would attempt to throw the ball, then stop, shake his head, turn to the other side, repeat that crap, before finally throwing it above the head of our player.

      At this point I can't even blame Mignolet anymore but the one who plays him.. he's a donkey, a mediocre football player that at this time should be relegated with Sunderland but somehow won the lottery ticket when an inept transfer committee decided to buy him.
