Mignolet tells Liverpool fans: I'm my biggest critic

Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet is well aware of the criticism from fans.

The Belgian has come under fire this season after a string of unconvincing displays.

"I look at the games and I'm my biggest critic," Mignolet told the Liverpool Echo.

"Together with the goalkeeping coach (John Achterberg) we look at the games and we analyse everything the day after a game together.

"We look at every little detail. We look at some things that people wouldn't even think a goalkeeper was featuring in at that moment, Like a cross that goes out of play or a throw that is 50 yards from goal. We'll look at my positioning.

"There's no point looking or worrying about what anyone else is saying or analysing because we're doing everything we can to make sure we improve. We all have to make sure we do our best and the performances will come."

He added: "You don't lose talent overnight, and everyone is working very hard to get back to winning games."
