Karius was very solid after taking over the number one job. If it wasn't for his CL disaster I'd be fine with him being our starter again. The problem is I have no idea how he'll bounce back from that.
This is the thing, they have to do something, I dont think the team can keep going back to the Karius/Mignolet well.

Look at last season, the purchase of VVD turned Lovren into a whole different defender, but Karius really was the weakest link, what does it say to guys up front scoring our way out of trouble everytime we're behind because of a goalkeeping howler?

They have to shore it up in net, they had to do it 3 years ago.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
