yeah I agree, first job for Klopp is to bin off the goal keeper with the most clean sheets blah blah blah
Come on lads, he's made some goofs but his record still shows that he is a great goalie or aren't we actually looking at facts on this one? It's almost like his face doesn't fit so lets get shot of him instead of getting behind him. It's ridiculous how fans turn on someone. so sad.

Agreed. He isn't our biggest problem...it's not as if the CB protecting him are world class...

We look absolutely dreadful at set pieces. We need a keeper with a presence who can actually command his area. The defence in other aspects has actually improved imo and they look better as a unit. Sakho would improve the defence at set pieces but it's been this way for years now and MIng is the constant
We have other problems that need addressed as well - DM and striker being the main two, however being hard to beat is also important and that includes replacing Mignolet

I also agree having watched the 1st goal last night. Yes he flapped at the ball, but Clyne acted like a little b!tch when he should have been stronger in protecting his goal, and the shot some how squeezed in with all those bodies on the line.
We need a stronger sense of defensive belief - not just a new goalie.

Read today that no other premier league player (in goal or outfield) has committed as many errors that have led to a goal than Mignolet. Apparently he's had that stat for the past THREE SEASONS.
At least he's consistent at something.

Didn't really like the way our fans reacted every time he had the ball though. He can make a mistake, sure, but we shouldn't get on his back like that.
Maybe we'll boo him next time.

The problem with Mingolet is that he just doesn't give off an air of confidence, even if we go ahead he gives the opposition belief that there's a way back into games.

If you listen to you lot its clear we still haven't replaced Ray Clemence! Perfect goal keepers don't exist just as perfect CB's RB's don't. They're a piece of the jigsaw who to play well, need a good defence in front of them. Any goalie playing behind a settled back line looks better than he really is.

Flapping at corners has never been the definition of a "perfect" goalie Reg.
You can't defend him, he was clearly responsible for the 1st goal and lost us the game.
Also he is prone to too many errors and loses us a lot of points throughout a season.
He should be our number 2, not our number 1.

I'm not trying to justify mistakes Eds mate, I know they're bl**dy annoying but goalkeepers make them on a fairly regular basis.
Our previous goalkeepers were no better - Calamity James, Hooper, Brucie letting in through his legs, Jerzy's massive loss of confidence. Pepe Reina was a great keeper but by then we had an established back four that gave him confidence etc,..

This ^^^
Every set piece is a heart in mouth moment.
A tall fella like Mingolet (who is allowed to use his arms) shouldn't be getting beat to the ball by players who can only use their head.

I agree with this. How far back (bar Reina maybe, who mind you had a great defence in front of him) do we have to go to find the "perfect" goalie?

I'm with Lee on this ,as soon as he's culpable this thread attracts posters like Black Friday and when he's keeping us in the game visitors are few. Klopp has no intention of recruiting a new goalkeeper and he told all the media assembled before him (specifically directed it at those who seemed intent on sniffing out a story ) that this would be the case.....and I'm inclined to believe him.

This!
This best shot stopper in the league is over played, there are a number of better " shot stoppers" than him ( I can think of at least three). In the time he has been here, you could count the truly world class saves on one hand. He stops balls hit at him granted but world class saves not that much. Add to that that he oozes uncertainty, looks very shaky with the ball at his feet, flaps at crosses too many times and generally has too many errors that result in goals. You need a very good keeper to win the league and he is not one. I have been going on about Simon since he came so it is not a sudden flip, we really need a world class keeper with Mignolet as a number 2 if we want to be a dominant force. The fact he has made more errors that resulted in goals than any other goalie over the last three years is shocking really. He is an error waiting to happen!
