‘Better second choice’: Kevin Phillips urges Liverpool to replace Adrian with Loris Karius
Former Premier League striker Kevin Phillips believes Loris Karius should take up the back-up goalkeeper role ahead of Adrian next term.
Karius was the club’s first-choice shot-stopper during the second half of the 2017/18 campaign but his season ended on a sour note as he made a couple of goalkeeping blunders in the 3-1 Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid.
Jurgen Klopp’s side thereafter landed the signature of Alisson Becker from AS Roma and that contributed to Karius’ departure to Besiktas on a two-year loan deal, where he has experienced a mixed run of fortunes.
