Simon Mignolet

He's awful, that kick second half that went out near the dugout.

His distribution is a distant second to goalkeeping ability and ability to dominate his area.

I don't think Mignolet was directly responsible for any of the goals but his inability to dominate his area indirectly contributes and will contribute to more goals this season. The first goal was poorly defended but the question is why are we really that bad at defending or were the defenders expecting Mignolet to deal with it. Unless there is a call which I don't think there was the defence has to deal with it. My problem with Mignolet is he let's the Watford player pin him down and stop him coming for it if he wanted to Mignolet shouldn't let that happen. He needs to be the one in control of the situation.

We should show him some vids of Brucie knocking our own defenders around just to get the ball out of the air.

I actally meant in terms of what matters and what he needs to improve, but the postruth probably works both ways

Henderson is coming back from Injury but he is pretty consistently good when injury free,

Lovren and Mignolet are not top level players just decent players capable of a sustained run of good form with plenty of **** ups along the way.

He can be pretty consistent when fully fit and on form. I think the problem is that this is the third start to a season in a row where we are having to say he needs time as he is coming back from an injury.

The PL is tough. There are no easy games. Sorry for the clichés but, if you're not 100%, there'll be a lesser player on the opposing team getting to the ball first as he's on the front foot. This happens way too much to JH in my opinion. He's also very poor at getting out of a sticky or pressed situation. He's got good passing stats but, imo, they mask the fact that his passing choices are generally quite poor. To balance the argument, he's fantastic at nicking the ball back and covering defensively.

He's great at picking the ball out the back of the net

[danperkins]

He'll have just as many bad games as good games. Just not the required standard we need to compete with the best, but seems Klopp likes him so we are ****ed. Sick of having the same conversation about Mig over and over and over.

Even then

[Charly]

to be fair... seeing as we ****ed up every other target, we probably wouldnt have managed a replacement if we had tried.

[Shaggy]

That was his 11th penalty save out of 24 he's faced for Liverpool.

[Buzzo]

Also his fourth save from his last seven penalties faced in all competitions. Impressive.

[Shaggy]

Absolutely superb record.

He ****ed me off royally on Saturday, but made three big, big saves tonight. Saves he should make tbh, but he doesn't always make those saves. His consistency - or lack of - is a problem. But since about January he's been excellent more often than not. Unless we sign someone like Oblak - which is never gonna happen - I'm not sure where the upgrade is gonna come from and we've clearly got to stick with him (and his deputies) this season.

I still want to keep Ward around the club because I reckon there's a lot of potential with him and I've pretty much given up on Karius being top level unless he has a massive turnaround. Mignolet needs competition though.
