I am just glad we got thru the tie - onwards and upwords as they say.
A thought:
How about this Augsburg keeper. He commands his area and looks very good.
I would gladly swap Mignolet for Augsburg keeper. He looks good. Why not buy him and send Mignolet on loan? We can do lot worse then this Augsburg keeper.
Marwin Hitz indeed is one of the best goal keepers in german Bundesliga these times.
Due to the highly acknowledged "kicker" sports magazine even the best one with an average mark of 2,55 (1,0 would be best and 6,0 worst). Followed by Zieler (Hannover), Adler (Hamburg), Fährmann (Schalke), Baumann (Hoffenheim), Horn (Köln/ Cologne), Karius (Mainz) and Neuer (München/ Munich).
The Germans never lacked of very good keepers, all these would currently be a definite boost to the LFC team (sorry, Migs, I know you do your best, but your performances are not on a constantly high level). This swiss guy on the top of the ranking only slightly outperforms the others who are all germans and whose performances imo are only shortly behind. And all of them have proven their consistency over at least 2-3 years already.
However, he deserves to be on the top of that ranking for his great reflexes on the goal line plus his command of the penalty area plus a real impressive physical presence.
