Quick point on the cohesion between the goalkeeper and the defenders.
Karius is looking a little better than Mignolet in terms of talking to his defenders, organising them and taking command of a situation.
It's important to remember though that cohesion in this case works both ways.

Karius needs to know exactly what his defenders are capable of, exactly how they will react to different situations and can base his own game around that.
Equally, the defenders need to be comfortable knowing what Karius will deal with easily.
Right now, Karius is probably on edge knowing any one of his defenders could drop him in it at any moment.
Until we get this understanding really working on both sides, we're always going to leak silly goals. It's also why we can't change too many players at once at the back. It could also be why Karius is now being blooded in.

Karius is being geared up and prepared for next season. He looks 100% more assured than Mignolet on the pitch.

Have any of you actually watched Karius? He is a disaster waiting to happen.

KBM have you ever seen Mignolet play? He is a disaster that happens continuously.

Klavy, yes we have. You must have been watching Joe Hart.

Harry, who is "you" in your post or are you an optional LFC fan?
