Kasper Schmeichel

[Buddha]

The Mirror claiming we've enquired and that Klopp is stepping up his search for competition for Mignolet (see, the contract was to lock him in as number 2!)...

So we look to get him 'competition' by signing a similarly average keeper? JOY!!!!

Mirror also claiming we're still seriously considering Ter Stegen too.

Hope it's this or Timo Horn. Failing that, I'd take Butland

Unless we get a better back four any new keeper will look crap.

I'm holding out for some German I've never heard of.

Are you holding out for a hero, too? Eh, Bonnie?

 

[kingjulian]

Ming, Majaroity of the back 4 and Lucas are all muck. No manager can work with shite like that and deliver results.

When i look at the Rooney goal and the fourth goal yesterday etc i really want to fucking nuke Lucas....small measures dont seem to be enough to clear all traces of him from our squad

Butland is probably better than Timo Horn.

Is Ter Stegen really as good as some people say? I've seen him about 4 times, and he's looked nervy or rather mediocre each time, either in the cups for Barca, or in the U21s for Germany. Granted, he's still very young.

Putting aside the fact Schmeichel is nearly 30 and it's unlikely we'd splash out on a keeper that old. He basically has the same strengths and weakness as Ming: great shot stopper, poor on crosses. He does have one of the longest kicks in the premiership, but most teams deal with that type of long ball very easily.

 

[Hansern]

We wont sign Schmeichel

Maybe we want him so that kick can't be used against us.

 

[Zlate]

There is 1 GK we should be after and that's Butland, he is an absolute beast between the sticks, he is better than Horn, Ter Stegen etc.

Another GK we should get before his stocks rise too much is Scuffet from Udinese. Broke through at the age of 17 and is now on GK of Como in serie b, has been likened to Buffon.

 

[moron]

If this is true then the way to look at this goalkeepers blood-line is the following in terms of how a manc supporter may feel having one of their legendary player's son playing for us:-

1) A former captain of ours went onto become one of their greatest managers
2) We as a club and our achievements game them and their Slur purpose - their success in those years were because they wanted to be like us - and now that they are almost there or rather have exceeded our league titles - they have become lost. All purpose is lost almost.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Fucking hell no thanks

 

[hmmmmm1]

He is terrible on crosses.

 

[redhorizon2]

What are your opinion on Jasper Cillessen? He is the number 1 dutch goal keeper despite playing in a minor league, touted as the replacement for De Gea.

 

[tombrown]

He is terrible on crosses.

So's Jesus

Or one that you've made up ?

I still haven't given up hope on that one.

Well here's one unknown German (for me anyway). Ron-Robert Zieler, 26, plays for Hannover 96 (last place in Bundesliga, yeah I know).

Interesting career path for the guy. Supposed to have been a promising youngster, played through all the age groups for Germany except U21. Signed for Man Utd from Cologne at 19, but didn't make any headway in the reserves; went on loan to Northampton and couldn't get a chance to play. Left and joined Hannover in 2010, where he's stayed since, playing his way into the national team.

I've no idea about him other than the above. Dortmund were linked to him in November 2014.

 

[hamstrung_pigeon]

This is Ron-Robert Zieler playing for Germany against Spain last year.

Liverpool are interested in Genoa's GK Mattia Perin. (Mirror) #LFC

Sure perin is meant to be the next boss Italian keeper

Unless we get a better keeper our back four will look crap.

I don't think it's quite fair to blame everything on Mignolet. He's not good enough, but we all knew that already. But Sakho, Lucas, and Toure all bear some responsibility
