Drop Mignolet.
I really dont think any were his fault tbh, maybe could have been more controlling on the one I think Wisdom should have gone for but to call him out against Roma is just easy pickings for me .. he is anything but a regular bad keeping, he just has lapses in concentration .... which lets him down badly I am not reading to much into the result as we ended up with Wisdom and Stewart as CB's the whole 2nd half... but Lovren was bad 1st half, got bullied and out of position a lot again.
No-one said a word (quite rightly) when Karius cocked up mightily in his debut. The constant getting on Mignolet's back at the slightest thing is getting a bit boring. If he fks up when the season starts, and gifts Arsenal a goal, complain then.

Dead legs must be different things these days, didn't these hurt like a bugger for 5 mins and then you run it off and crack on?
Yep. But I think those were also the days where, if you went down, it was the result of a collision which rendered you physically unable to stay on your feet. Not because 'there was contact'. That being my most hated phrase in football.m3sye said:

I think it is obvious that we need a genuine defensive midfielder to slot in next to Cann and neither Milner nor Henderson are specialist enough for this role whilst Lucas is (and I'm a fan) not of the quality we need. As for a left back. If we don't buy one now we will at Xmas or next summer. Moreno, Milner, Clyne maybe Gomez just seems too light for me.
There are 2 more signings left for this to be a genuine Klopp team. I'm sure he'll get there over the next window or two.

Mignolet has never commanded his box well. He's also indecisive at coming off his line and his distribution is woeful. These things won't change I think unfortunately.

I do agree on 2 more, I do really think though he has vision of Can and Wijnaldum playing behind a 3 of either Firminio, Coutinho, Lallana, or ManeI think it is obvious that we need a genuine defensive midfielder to slot in next to Cann and neither Milner nor Henderson are specialist enough for this role whilst Lucas is (and I'm a fan) not of the quality we need.

It would be nice though to have that option of a out and out DM in certain games...maybe why he is now wanting Lucas to stay

Maybe Henderson will get a chance next to Can.

I think Lucas staying isn't enough. Can is an obvious starter and from what I've seen of him he is a genuine box to box midfielder. Not sure about Wijnaldum but from what I've seen he doesn't look like defensive midfield is his strength. If anything I think he's another one that will compete to play in the 3 attacking midfield roles.
Maybe Henderson will get a chance next to Can.
Can see it, our 1st team for me will beMaybe Henderson will get a chance next to Can.
Sturridge or Origi
Coutinho Firmino Mane
Can Wijnaldum
Moreno Sakho/Lovren Matrip/Karius Clyne
Mignolet
I dont think there will be a sitting CM as such I think it will be the job of both Can and Mijnaldum to cover the other if they go...

I wouldn't risk Karius as a CB Sturridge or Origi
Coutinho Firmino Mane
Can Wijnaldum
Moreno Sakho/Lovren Matrip/Karius Clyne
