He didn't have any chance with their second but that first was awful keeping.

agree with everything you say...but his save from van wolfswinkel's header made amends. Great save

I think it's BR direction ,i can't believe he would act like this on his own ,pass the ball at all cost and yes with some risk.

He's spent most of his career at Sunderland under no nonsense managers like Steve Bruce and Martin O Neill, he's obviously not used to knocking it around at the back and quite frankly it shows.

I think any Liverpool keeper would have problem against high pressing teams ,it's not his fault so many balls are returned to him by our CB's and FB's....I think he takes some unnecessary risks but this issue will remain till we get maybe another quality defensive MF which can take the pressure off...

For all his faults he's still had a better season than Reina did last year.

He has had his positive moments, but also makes a hash of things far too often, if we are to be Champions and competing for top honors next season we need to replace him as our number 1

David Marshall @ Cardiff is excellent, plus also Ben Foster - however i doubt many here would accept Foster as he used to play for the scum, although i see past that and see a very reliable english keeper

True, Reina was as bad as Mingolet at coming out for crosses, even when he was in top form early in his career here that was always his Achilles heel.
Did anyone else notice Skrtel flip when their first goal went in? it looked to me like he was about to jump for the ball but he suddenly stooped down as if he'd had a shout from Mingolet, when Skrtel turned around the ball was in the net.
I think Skrtel's reaction was a case of saying FFS I had that covered.

If you're ruling out Mignolet, then you must pitch higher than Marshall or Foster.

Champions sign proven CL players.

He bottled it, he saw the Norwich player coming in and took his eye off the ball and missed the punch, I can understand Skrtel being p!ssed off, he goes in fully committed and expects the same from his team mates

Who are you thinking? Someone like Iker Casillas ?

there was a shout. you could hear 'keeeepperrrrr!' as plain as day even on my crappy stream. 'oh good' i thought, 'mignolet is being assertive'. but then.....

Begovic

He's a good shootstopper, not that good on much else.
You take the good with the bad I guess.

he made a balls of that cross that he didnt really need to come for. skrtel has every right to be livid with him when he clearly called for it. had he of stayed on his line it would have taken one hell of a header to beat him.
he did make a couple of good stops but seriously could have done without the clanger.

Are you taking the *****? Mignolet is absolutely awful, Reina was ten times the keeper he is. In all the years Reina kept goal for us i never saw him make as many mistakes as Mignolet has this season. He cant command his box, cant catch, does camera saves and has the worst distribution i have ever seen from a Liverpool keeper. Id at least 10 other premiership keepers ahead of him, he needs the boot asap
