Boss shot stopper Shite distribution The amount of balls he kicked into touch was incredible Klopp needed a keeper who could be like a extra defender and have high level distribution why he sanctioned a nearly 70m fee for a keeper the rest is history 👌🏻
Can’t overegg the compliments because he’s a nice bloke, which he is. Very good keeper to have made it to an elite premier league level but NOWHERE NEAR the level to deliver titles.
You can tell who the part time Liverpool fans are, they trot out the 'Karius was great until the final' rubbish when he had been making really bad errors for months. We had an easy CL group stage battering some teams 7-0, the one time he did face a shot he made a huge mistake against Spartak Moscow away from home, stood in the wrong place from a free kick. He conceded a pen at Crystal Palace and another at home to Spurs, made a similar error at home to Roma that he made in the final but got away with it as the shot hit the bar, made mistakes away at MC and Roma, badly out of position when Sane scored against us in the 4-3 league game. It came out after he left that Achterberg and Klopp had already instructed the owners to get Alisson months before the CL final. I love and miss Klopp but he messed up dropping Simon, he wasn't Ali or Kelleher level but he wouldn't have embarrassed us in that final.
Feel for the guy, we had a shit defence back then.. Even with VVD, Matip, Konate etc, Allison has still had to save our ass so many times.. I imagine without VVD, Matip, Konate etc even Allison would struggle too..
Mignolet is a great and loyal servant to the club. Even after Alisson's arrival which confined him to the bench, Klopp praised his professionalism which speaks volume of his character, alongside Lallana and Milner. Unfortunately, things didn't work out well for him at LFC as we would've hope, but at least he got to leave us as a European champion. Glad he found success at his new club Brugge and let's all wish him and Brugge the very best against City in their final CL group stage match. YNWA
I'm glad this joker left our club. Absolute joke of a keeper. Amount of goals this guy let in. Counnt even keep dema bas goal out when Gerrard slipped. You think Allison or kelleher would've let that in?!!!!
He was absolute rubbish. At the point he was dropped for Karius he had one of the worst records in the PL. Couldn't catch a cross to save his life and absolutely hopeless at playing out. There's a reason why we paid a world record for Alisson.
Signing Simon was never an issue. Putting him as No1 almost immediately and dethroning Reina was. He was, at the time, never a No1 for a club of Liverpool's stature and ambitions. Having said that, placing him behind Loris was an even bigger blunder…Loris was just not a Premier League level keeper. I do however like Simon and i respect him immensely as a professional…he conducted himself with dignity and I'm happy that things worked out for him.
you learn spanish from a brazilian that speaks Portuguese as a native language? they certainly are 2 languages closely related and maybe he speaks spanish too, but…..
Hey Ben as a goalkeeper podcast I’d love to see Karius on this , it be interesting goalkeeper to goalkeeper to talk about it especially as he was one of the best keepers in Germany to moving to Liverpool. People forget that he actually was having a good season bar 2 games Bournemouth and Madrid. I’d love to see it
Seen a lot of people praising mignolet for how good he was. Sorry but I watched most games with him and he started off well but he made so many little errors and mistakes. Sure he’s a great guy but a below average keeper. Karius before the champions league final was miles ahead
He left because he wasn't good enough for to be the number 1 at a top PL team. He was great at Sunderland and worked as a bridge player from Reina to Alisson (With ofc a short bump named Karius) but he was never someone you could truly depend upon. He had some great and amazing saves and good games but they always came with the fear of a screw up that always came at some point. He most certainly was good enough to play in the PL for a lower mid team and could look like a star…. He just wasn't more than that but he made the most of it and almost won the PL in 13/14. He's a good guy though and was a great number 2 for Belgium.
You may not agree with me but I’m convinced that if he had started in that 2018 UCL final instead of Karius, we would have won. Glad he left Liverpool with a winners medal around his neck.
Allegiance aside, this interview was incredible. Having a lesser but well spoken name is a breath of fresh air! Nobody wants to constantly hear from the same people every week all over YouTube. Be different, give the lesser names a chance to chance. Well done!
If I were Mignolet I would've left immediately after Jugen put Karius ahead of me! You'll have to open history books to find someone who was close to being as bad as Karius was/is.

Mignolet was our no 1 for 4 years, and he was never convincing for Liverpool
Boss shot stopper
Shite distribution

Mignolet is like the goalkeeper version of nunez, save difficult shot but let in easy ball.
He now gets to chill in Brugge. Much better!
This guy was Number 2 to Larry Karius lol 😂
Great interview, he speaks really well

One of the best keeper at saving pens,

Bro has a scouse accent when he says "career".

I still remember how he always punch the ball away bacause we didn't have a proper defender who dominant in the air like virgil. 😅

Mignolet had skrtel and sakho infront of him
Allison has vvd and konate
I wish we would have rather played the final with Simon in goal
Poor guy had shit defenders
He was goated at penalties
Mignolet, Loris and Jones ALL mediocre keepers. None of them really up to EPL standard or LFC standard.
2:20 sound's very scouse
A MAN WHO SAVED US STOKE CITY GAME.
please keep a clean sheets vs man city for the next game

People speaking badly against him. He is the reason Club Brugge have performed well in the UCL this season
I always told everyone that Liverpool would not win anything with him in goal, he was a liability and simply not good enough, thank God he left!!!
He left because he wasn't good enough for to be the number 1 at a top PL team. He was great at Sunderland and worked as a bridge player from Reina to Alisson (With ofc a short bump named Karius) but he was never someone you could truly depend upon.

Always knew he was a good lad, very respectable and carries himself well.
He still has a scouse twang to some of his accent haha
Doesnt anybody remember when he was at the club? Him and karius were a fucking joke! Worst keeper pairing i have ever seen at a club.
I figured Allison spoke Portuguese not Spanish
He’s our keeper, our Belgian keeper , it’s Simon mignolet
He would of had a better career if he had a better defence infront of him … FACT

Great shot stopper, that pen save on the first day of the season against Stoke was incredible.
Really liked Mignolet ynwa

He sounds just lie Daniel Brühl in Rush…
Only Lukasz Fabianski has saved more penalties in Premier League history than Simon Mignolet.
He was average tbf let’s be honest
Say what you want about Mignolet – he was clutch in a penalty shoot-out. Many times I felt confident with him in goal when it was 1 on 1.
