I'm still not convinced by Karius, but the last two matches are encouraging and I'd much rather give him the rest of the season to try to claim the position as his own rather than persist with Mignolet, who's had ample opportunity to demonstrate that he's simply not good enough. I hope Mignolet is on his way out in the summer. I wonder how much of this is to do with Karius's rise in form and how much is to do with Mignolet's little outburst in the media. Hilarious if he thought he could win his place back by whining to the press instead of by not playing like shit and it's completely backfired. I'm generally in favour of this. Karius has done well over the last two games (although I'm not sure how much of that is just because my expectations for him are rock bottom) and I think we'll benefit from a settled back five. Mignolet won't be going anywhere in the summer, though, for the simple reason that no one will buy him. His wages will price out every club on his level; Championship clubs simply don't make that much money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We look more solid defensively with an actual leader at the back. And I definitely think we'll benefit from a settled back five. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFCMadLad 2,080 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Klopp speaking about our travelling fans last night. The man is just utter class. Some supporters have experienced difficulties in attempting travelling home following the fixture, with flights affected by local weather conditions. Speaking to Liverpoolfc.com at the Reds’ training camp in Marbella, Klopp issued a message for Reds fans by saying: “I want to say thank you for doing what you did – not only yesterday, but in the last few weeks, months, years and decades. It’s outstanding – you are a big part of this fantastic club. “Before we all came in, we felt we knew you already – we didn’t, but we felt like this. Now we know you, it still feels outstanding. “I heard about [the travel problems] and friends of mine have had the same problem, but I hope you still have a little bit in mind what we did last night and still can enjoy a little bit of Porto, even when the weather is not that good.” Klopp added: “The support last night was fantastic, really fantastic. I enjoyed it so much. It was easy to find them because it was pretty dark where they were sitting from our point of view – but we heard them. “It was fantastic and I have to say thank you for all the things they did last night. I love our away crowd and they are full of joy when they can see a Liverpool game and enjoy themselves. I really love that.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Artful Dodger 1,831 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Gives you leverage in any transfer though, can get a fortune for them. Firmino is the rock which your attack is built round now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machado 1,710 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Gutted that Liverpool can't win the league. 32 goals conceded is poor and has cost them. It's all about getting the results in the end but it'd be nice if the kind of football they play won them titles. Can't complain about City in that regard to be fair, but it'd be nice to have a title race between two positive, captivating sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
