Liverpool keeper struggles down to the likes of De Gea & Courtois being taken, claims Manninger

The Reds' back-up shot-stopper says Loris Karius is 'not a bad goalkeeper' and believes 'silly money' would need to be spent getting anyone better

Alex Manninger believes a heightened focus on goalkeeping problems has become “Liverpool-specific” because their Premier League title rivals have already acquired world-class talents.

The Reds have struggled once again between the sticks this season, with no long-term answer found to an ongoing problem.

Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius have struggled to convince when given the opportunity, with Jurgen Klopp opting to drop both at various stages of the season.

Manninger is the third-choice option at Anfield, with the veteran shot-stopper having joined the ranks last summer.
