We had a brilliant distributer in Reina, then didn’t have normal ones in Karius and Ming - they were absolutely god awful at distributing the ball. So a bit of a shock to the system to have someone at Reina-like level.When mignolet first came I couldn't get over how bad his distribution was, even in his later years Reina was solid in that respect, and his long balls were great. But through the years I just kind of accepted that a keeper would just give it to someone immediately next to them, or blunderbuss it nowhere in particular. Mignolet wasnt even good at that. Kicks for throwins, dangerously low kicks. I don't think karius threw much at all, but it's hard to say because he'd need to have posession of the ball.
Revisionism is easier when you consider who we replaced him withReina was fucking dreadful by the time we sold him. He was letting in about 50% of shots on target.
Near post..Reina was fucking dreadful by the time we sold him. He was letting in about 50% of shots on target.
Nah I'm not having that. Reina was fucking class. We let him go too early. As others has said his distribution was outstanding. Have to say though - I totally would rim the fucking hoop off Alisson - I love the beardy bastard.
