Good win for us today after an appalling first 25 minutes. Lovren had a complete nightmare, crouch and walters really bullied him throughout, only a matter of time before he is replaced by Gomez or Klavan. Himself and Mignolet were solely at fault for Stoke's goal. Firmino was excellent today, Origi showed signs that he is improving as his hold/ link up play was very good. Great to see Sturridge get a goal, definitely deserved.

Although I'm not saying Mignolet and Lovren did well for their goal, Clyne and Mane could have done a lot more to prevent the cross coming in.

Solely at fault for Stoke's goal, ridiculous comment. Mane is equally culpable. Awful control on the edge of the box, stood and waited for Clyne to step in and then jogged to the side of the box and made no attempt to stop the cross. You're using the easy scape goats.

KingKenny92, people are scapegoating Migs for his error (it was indeed his error) w/ o looking at the collection of errors that led to it just like they did with Karius. It`s the easiest thing to do, really.

King kenny, yes mane switches off completely and let's the cross come in, but I'm mentioning mignolet and lovren due to them making these types of mistakes over and over again. They both are simply no the good enough, Karius deserves at least a fullseason before we can give a full assessment on him.

Hamilton if Karius makes that mistake people would gloss over it as well, because the difference is we won. No one remembers the errors made in a match we win. Before long it won't be talked about, and Karius has made many in games we have won. So it's an error but it seems like people are either team pro Karius or team anti Karius and it's ridiculous. Karius needed dropping, so he can recuperate and focus on improving his game rather than not making an error, mignolet has came in and been pretty solid for the most part so it was a good call. Now mignolet will play against city and then it becomes a real talking point. Does he keep his place or do we bring back Karius. Long term I'd say we would have to bring back Karius at some point as it's only fair he gets his shot, but short term mignolet in goal is probably the best option we have. Everyone's got different opinions but if Karius or mignolet make that mistake and we drop points no doubt both would be hounded, but there will people that will defend Karius, but no one would defend mignolet. That's a double standard in my opinion. And the excuse that mignolet has been doing it for 3 years would be reasonable had we not slated him in his first season. We did.

Y are people surprised with Lovren? He has been pretty much on the same level from past 3 years. One crucial mistake every game. Well He will have a good time against Aguero on Saturday.

People only look back at the error if you loose a match. Just like they want a new signing when you are not winning.

Kman, I`m actually not having a discussion you are having so your post is not directed to the reasoning behind mine. Therefore, I propose you read my post again and respond accordingly. Just saying.
