#2 Klopp shows faith in Mignolet

Simon Mignolet

No other player in Merseyside divides opinion in Merseyside like Simon Mignolet (No, no one really rates Dejan Lovren). Often deemed as a good-shot-stopper, the Belgian has games where you doubt if he should have ever decided to keep at all. But then again, he silences his critics and manages to keep his first-team place.

In the last away game against Arsenal, Mignolet was the culprit for Arsenal's equalising goal and many felt that was the final straw. But to everyone's surprise, the Belgian remained in goal.

Loris Karius has done okay in the Champions League, but then again, it takes more than a few bad games for Klopp to drop you. The German's faith in players is perhaps a bit too much.

Mignolet has made high-profile errors in big games -- against Tottenham and Arsenal -- so the gaffer will have to be wary of trusting the Belgian custodian with his rose-tinted glasses.
