Mignolet’s Liverpool career looked as though it was over as early as last season after falling behind Loris Karius in the pecking order. Alisson’s arrival from Roma meant Mignolet was now considered the third choice with his departure expected to follow. But Karius’ two-year loan move to Besiktas earlier this week has meant Mignolet will be needed by Liverpool for the new season. The Belgian gave an explosive interview earlier this week when he called it “strange” that Karius was allowed to leave instead of him.<doc-sep>Jurgen Klopp criticised Simon Mignolet for publicly questioning Liverpool's decision to prevent him from going out on loan. Mignolet told Belgian media it was "bizarre" that fellow goalkeeper Loris Karius was allowed to join Besiktas on a two-year loan deal, while he was not allowed to leave Anfield before the end of the transfer window. "In general, discussing your individual problems in public doesn't make too much sense," said Liverpool boss Klopp. "It's always better to speak to each other, I'm a big believer in that. In the first moment when understanding decisions or not, it's always better to talk to me about that directly than newspapers. "But it was still okay. If he was happy to be a No 2 then I wouldn't really know him. He's a top professional, a top goalkeeper, and of course he is not happy to be No 2. "But there are worse things in the world that being No 2 - and you are pretty well paid at Liverpool. "In the first moment when understanding decisions or not, it's always better to talk to me about that directly than newspapers." Image: Alisson has kept three successive clean sheets Mignolet is playing second fiddle to Brazil international Alisson, who has made an impressive start to his Liverpool career with three clean sheets in as many games. Klopp is delighted with the 25-year-old's impact since his £67m transfer from Roma, but says a lot of credit must go to Liverpool's defence. Live Premier League "He is a good goalkeeper but we have defended well so far," said Klopp. "It's not like he has had 20 shots on target. "Hopefully it stays like this but you need a goalie who is always spot on and at his highest concentration level. And hopefully at Leicester there will not be 15 shots on target. We have to avoid that and then in specific moments he needs to be there. "So far so good, nothing to moan about but we know that as a club there will be difficult moments for some players during the season. It's our job to push them as far away as possible." 1:35 Klopp explained his decision to employ a specialist throw-in coach Last weekend Klopp hired Thomas Gronnemark as a specialist throw-in coach to help their chances of winning silverware, and he says the Dane has already made an impact. "I never heard about a throw-in coach [before]," said Klopp. "You know about a lot of different things as a football manager. I played the game, I'm managing for around 18 years, but that doesn't mean I'm a goalkeeping specialist. And I'm obviously not a throw-in specialist. "I know about different movements but it was not 100 per cent clear. How can I improve the guy with the ball and not only the movement of the other guys? 0:42 Liverpool defender Joe Gomez hopes his defensive partnership with Virgil van Dijk can earn a similar reputation to the club's attacking players "When I heard about Thomas I wanted to meet him. And when I met him it was 100 per cent clear I wanted to employ him. "Now he is here and we work on that from time to time, but we use his information as well during the week when he is not here. We'll use it for the academy as well. "I must always be the guy who decides when we use them but you cannot have enough specialists around. We have that fitness, medical departments, nutrition and now we have somebody for throw-ins. "He's good guy. Has he made a difference? Yes, he already has. The boys like it."<doc-sep>Jurgen Klopp has warned Simon Mignolet to keep his grievances to himself after the Liverpool No2 went public about his situation at Anfield. Mignolet had sought a move away from Liverpool this summer, having seen Loris Karius then Alisson Becker usurp him. He was the subject of interest from Besiktas – whom, ironically, ended up signing Karius on loan – and Fulham, while there was also speculation about a move to Barcelona. Jurgen Klopp has criticised Simon Mignolet for his outburst in an interview with Belgian media Mignolet hit out at his situation at Anfield and is unhappy at not being allowed to leave club Liverpool had been looking to recoup £12million for Mignolet, whose frustrations bubbled over last week when he gave an interview to Belgian media. He insisted it was 'bizarre' that Karius had been allowed to leave ahead of him, when he had expressed his wishes earlier. Klopp quickly became aware of the comments and while he can understand Mignolet's position, he has made it clear to the 30-year-old that he would much prefer in the future if he kept his counsel. With Lazar Markovic the only player set to leave Liverpool before the European deadline closes tonight, Klopp said: 'It is true he will not depart, of course not. In general, discussing your individual problems in public does not make too much sense, it is better to speak to each other. I'm a big believer in that. Liverpool brought in Alisson (second left) as their new No 1 for £67m during the summer Loris Karius had previously usurped Mignolet as No 1 but was allowed to leave club on loan 'But it was still OK. It is the one time, we are all human beings and I have not a problem with that. 'If he was happy to be a number two then I wouldn't really know him. He is a top professional, a top goalkeeper and of course he is not happy to be No 2. 'At the end, there are worse things in the world than being No 2 – pretty good pay by the way at Liverpool. In the first moment you understand decisions or not but it is always better to talk to me directly about it than newspapers. 'It makes not too much sense, if you want to say something to me say it directly – that helps.' Klopp, meanwhile, hopes there can be a resolution between Mohamed Salah and the Egypt FA following the situation that escalated this week. Lazar Markovic looks set to be the only player to leave club before European transfer deadline Klopp refused to be drawn heavily on Mohamed Salah's feud with the Egyptian FA Salah and his agent, Ramy Abbas Issa, are furious that his image has been used to promote a telecommunications network associated with the Egypt national team when he is an ambassador for a rival network. Liverpool's main striker also has expressed concerns about his personal safety, having had fans knock on his hotel room door 'at 4am' while on international duty. Klopp, whose side face Leicester tomorrow, said: 'About the thing with the Egyptian FA I can't say too much, it is really something between the player and the FA. 'I spoke to Mo about that but it is not about us to intervene in that moment, to say something about that. They will solve that, I am sure. 'It is not about me so it is really between Mo and the FA, that is all I can say about that. As long as they talk about us pretty much everything is allowed – well maybe not everything but a lot.'<doc-sep>Who do Liverpool need to sign to re-claim the title?

Mignolet had seemed certain to leave the Reds this summer following the signing of Alisson Becker, only for Loris Karius to be allowed to join Besiktas on loan. The Belgian called that move "bizarre" , and stated his desire to leave before the closure of the European transfer window on Friday evening. “The transfer of Karius doesn't change anything for me,” he said to Het Laatste Nieuws. “I have always been clear: I want to play. (Image: Getty Images Europe) (Image: Action Images via Reuters) “Being number two or number three makes little difference. Playing minutes is the most important thing. “Nobody has said anything to me after the departure of Loris. So I don't know what my future at Liverpool is. We will see what happens this week.” “I find it bizarre that Karius was loaned while I also had options to be loaned. But for some reason that was not possible. “A goalkeeper who was preferred to me last year may leave on a loan basis. Strange.” (Image: Anadolu) (Image: Andrew Powell/Liverpool FC via Getty Images) And speaking at his press conference before Saturday's visit to Leicester , Klopp questioned why Mignolet went to the media with his gripe. It is understood that Mignolet couldn't agree personal terms with Fulham when offered the chance to move to the newly promoted Premier League club, and Klopp offered what seemed a brutal reference to that, when he added: “Of course he is not happy to be number two but at the end there are worse things in the world than being number two – pretty good pay by the way at Liverpool. (Image: Andrew Powell) “It is true he will not depart, of course not. He is upset, we are all human beings and I have no problem with that, and if he was happy to be a number two then I wouldn't really know him. “He is a top professional, a top goalkeeper and in the first moment you understand decisions or not but it is always better to talk to me directly about it than newspapers. “Usually I would not even be aware of it. It makes not too much sense, if you want to say something to me say it directly – that helps. (Image: Liverpool Echo) “It was still ok. The one time the argument being, if he would be happy to be a number two, a top professional a top goalkeeper, and of course he is not happy being a number two...he's pretty good pay at Liverpool by the way.” Mignolet was in talks with several clubs and was keen on a loan move, but Klopp preferred to allow Karius to depart, given the pressure the keeper would inevitably face after his Champions' League final meltdown.<doc-sep>
Jurgen Klopp has told Simon Mignolet to not go public with grievances over his Liverpool future – as he allayed fears over Mohamed Salah's off-field distractions. Earlier this week, Mignolet said it was “bizarre” that Loris Karius was allowed to leave on loan to Besiktas while claiming he wasn't allowed to make a similar move. Mignolet will now remain at Anfield for the remainder of the year as number two to first-choice shot-stopper Alisson Becker. And Klopp has taken a dim view over the 30-year-old airing his grumbles – and reminded him that he is still handsomely rewarded for bench duty. “He will not leave today,” said the Reds boss. “In general, discussing your individual problems in public is actually doesn't make too much sense. It's better that you speak to each other, I'm a big believer in that. “But it was still okay. Of course, it's actually the one time, and we are all human beings and I'm happy with that. “If he was happy to be a number two then I wouldn't really know him. He is a top professional, a top goalkeeper and of course he is not happy to be number two. “At the end, there are worse things in the world than being number two, pretty good pay by the way at Liverpool." Klopp added: “In the first moment you understand decisions or not, it's always better to talk to me about that directly than to newspapers. “In this case, I was told at one point, usually I wouldn't even be aware of it. It makes not too much sense. If you want to tell me something, then tell me directly.” Klopp, meanwhile, is confident Salah won't be affected by his ongoing dispute with the Egyptian FA over the use of his image rights, an issue that was reignited earlier this week. “I cannot say too much, it really is something between the player and the FA,” said the Liverpool boss. “I spoke to Mo of course about that, but it's not up to sue to intervene or say something about that. They will solve that, I'm pretty sure. “It's not about me, it's really between Mo and the FA. That's all I can say about that. They all have doubts, and as long as they don't talk about us, everything is allowed! Maybe not everything, but a lot!”
