    Maybe I will be the only one on here to thank Migs., for his time playing for Liverpool. Most fans on here will state that he was awful, he did make mistakes ( all keepers do), but fans forget his penalty saves which saved many points for us.
    He also played in a poor defence, never had the chance the chance to play with VVD & Robertson. He was also dropped when playing very well for Karius & we all know the disaster that happened.

    Thank you Migs.,

    I’ll certainly second that. Overall, I think he was harshly treated by our ‘fans’, although I think the heaviest criticism came more from the keyboard warrior type fan. I’m glad that he’s gone, for his own sake, as he deserves to be playing and not spending another (nearly entire) season on the bench as he’s still in his prime years for a keeper at 31. A top bloke off the pitch as well. On top of all that, I think that Adrian is a great addition as the back-up and at least he’s come with the knowledge and acceptance that it’s for domestic cups and injury cover…so everything’s good.

    I’ll go along with the thank you sentiments, he always gave his best (every keeper makes mistakes including Allison) and, as Red Herring says he made severl crucial penalty saves, in my book he did us a lot more good than bad and deserves our thanks for his contribution, it seems he’s a top bloke off the pitch too so good luck to him for the rest of his career.

    YNWA RIP the 96

    Always did his best & was unlucky to be dropped for Karius. Last season didn’t grumble playing second fiddle to Alisson. Good luck Migs Ynwa

    I don’t normally like to talk about former players but Migs is seriously bugging me, I’m so happy to have gotten rid of him, worst keeper we have ever had and I mean that… He set the trend of goalkeeping errors while he was at Anfield and now the disrespectful little shit is taking shots at the Anfield crowd, who were fairly justified in their opinion of the most mediocre goalkeeper I have seen at Anfield. Sure there are worse goalkeeper that we have had but in fairness those were not expected to be a first teamer, the man is so fucking deluded he can’t see the difference between him and Alison. The simple truth is that you were always mediocre Simon and you never developed any further in your whole time here, at best you had 2 good games in a row and were largely at fault for our position every year after a number of blunders every fucking season and then you wonder why the crowd never took to you… Its because you never accepted any fucking responsibility for your blunders and you are a prick! A disrespectful little prick who has probably just found his level in Belgium, I mean you are in your prime now as a goalkeeper in a third rate league at the top of your game now, its no wonder you finally click with the fans…

    Journalists take comments and deliberately spin it into something controversial.

    The comments I saw, he was just saying how he had no chance of getting in the team ahead of Alisson. He didn’t say it very well. But I’m sure that’s all he meant by it.

    This isnt his first outburst after leaving the club… I think these snide remarks actually describe him as a person rather well and if you agree with that you can also understand why he never got any better, kinda delusional about his own worth…

    I for one don’t find an issue with Migs comments. All he was saying was that it was impossible for him to get regular Football with Alisson around. Nothing wrong with that.

    So you didnt take any offense about his statements about the Anfield crowd a month ago either… Its pretty obvious why he would not get a sustained run in the team, he is half the keeper Alison is and somehow he doesn’t see that, he cant even work out why Karius was preferred to him and that’s because Migs has never gone through more than 3 games without a blunder. It’s the reason why he could never convince the Kop that he was a good keeper… it has nothing to do with the crowd just his limited ability as a keeper.

    NB, I’m glad Migs has moved on but do you not recall a certain Loris Karius just a short time ago?

    Wow what a statement, you argue with The great man(Davinci) & you come out with Migs could only go more than 3 games without a blunder which is ridiculous. Migs was playing well when dropped for Karius.

    Migs turned on the club and he is bitter because of it, it would be better for him to focus on his career or whats left of it and salvage it instead of going every month to the media with a new take on Liverpool or on what went on behind the scenes here.

    The thing is I can’t remember one single goalkeeper that has left the club in the last three decades that has twice gone vocal against the club a few months after his release.

    You wanna defend him now, I can understand that but when he comes out for the third time lucky, you are gonna swing your vote around…

    Whether you think I was defending him or not, it was your comment that he could go no more than 3 games without a blunder is what I called ridiculous, with a statement like that you seem to have an agenda against Migs.

    Mignolet was shit before he was dropped. Worst shots to saves ratio in the entire league and like 3 clean sheets in half a season. By comparison, karius had double digits. There’s no agenda against him. He was rubbish and never deserved the #1 shirt.

    liverlad, thats not such a big statement from me, considering how Migs performed during his whole career here…

    The thing is I don’t like ex-players laying out the dirty laundry, the only one to do so repeatedly is Diouf, it reeks of bitterness and instead of being focused on his new challenge he is still here, living in the past…

    Here we have one of the most inconsistent goalkeepers I have ever seen play for the team, having a go at the manager because he feels unjust.

    He even goes on record stating that Alison could have scored a own goal and still be in the side, this is coming from a man that has provided us with more than 20 blunders. The only thing consistent about his form is how inconsistent he is and somehow he feels hard done by, he should just shut up and focus on his new club!

    The only time I’ve been comfortable with Migs in the team is when he was sat on the bench!

    As far as I see it, all he was saying was that it was virtually impossible to displace Alisson. Don’t see any comments about bias from Klopp against him. You are letting your opinion on his goalkeeping ability get in your way. And yes, he wasn’t good for us.

    I state again it saying that he never played 2 good games without a blunder which I say is ridiculous.
    Whether he was good or bad I never stated.

    if you find it that ridiculous then provide some proof that I am wrong, I will be happy to accept a blunder every 4 games to be proven wrong mate

    He wasnt a bad shot stopper but terrible on crosses, high balls and awful distribution. Brought in to replace an out of form Reina, he was a big step backwards and easily cost us the guts of 7/8 points a season by himself. Nothing personally against him, I can understand any pro in the peak years of their career being pissed off to be always on the bench, but he just wasnt ever at the level required and deep down I’m sure he knows that. He is probably a bit bitter he wasnt allowed leave last season when Karius went….its a long cold season on the bench. And probably doesn’t help that Adrian came in and instantly won a super cup and won the fans over.

    Not to nitpick here but the start of the 2015 season Migs went 16 straight games without a blunder until he flapped at a cross and pushed it right onto Scott Dann’s head for the winner for Palace at Anfield. I remember shit like this! Lol.
