Why Liverpool will NOT win the 2016-17 Premier League title

Clean sheets for second-choice Mignolet

The goalkeeper fiasco will probably run on throughout the remainder of the 2016-17 season.

Back-to-back clean sheets now for Simon Mignolet, who is now seen as second-choice to the out-of-form Loris Karius. Where do Liverpool go from here?

Your guess is as good has mine. There’s now a situation where the ‘keeper brought in to replace Mignolet is lacking in form and confidence. He’s taken out of the limelight by Klopp, only for the deemed not good enough former number one to step back in and keep clean sheets.

Does Klopp stick or twist? Will he stick with Mignolet, therefore admitting Karius, who may well go onto become a good ‘keeper, isn’t ready yet?

Or does he look to bring Karius back in and risk losing valuable points through errors caused by his lack of experience?

The answers to these questions will make for interesting viewing and come the end of the season may well pose questions for Klopp to explain.
