Being the number two goalkeeper at a football club must be a tricky position to be in, and it’s one that Simon Mignolet has found himself in in the last few weeks.

The Belgium international started the season as number one, but the arrival of 23-year-old Loris Karius seems to have demoted Mignolet down the pecking order.

The 28-year-old has shown to be a capable goalkeeper at this level, even if he is prone to the odd mistake, and thus might feel that he could be a number one somewhere else, maybe lower down the division.

He will want to keep giving Belgium manager Roberto Martinez something to think about, as he looks to add to his 17 international caps, and moving to get first-team football in January would do exactly that.

One response to “Jurgen Klopp must axe these 3 Liverpool players in January”

  1. I personally wouldn’t agree with the idea of selling anybody now because just like Origi, Can, Grujic, Lucas, Markovic and Flanagan, they have to be patient. Liverpool will soon start playing in the FA Cup in addition to EPL and EFL trophy plus the U23 epl. And by next September we would have been playing in the Champions League. They are all good players and some of them are better than first team players in other top flight teams in epl. Why sell those that have known our style of play and buy those that would start from the scratch? I think it just shows the quality of improvement, squad and dept in our team right now. Remember 2013/2014 season and two finals last season in which they played major part.
