Jurgen Klopp advised to sell Liverpool player to make one key transfer happen

Photo/SkySports Former Liverpool defender Steve Nicol has advised Jurgen Klopp to sell Simon Mignolet and sign Neil Etheridge. The Reds have identified the Cardiff City goalkeeper as an unlikely transfer target, according to WalesOnline. Nicol thinks that Etheridge would make the perfect replacement for Mignolet. He told ESPN FC: "I think this would be a good signing. I think the 69 goals he [Etheridge] let in, he probably had no chance with 55 of them, let's be honest. Mignolet has to go, he has to go and play. You need a back-up who is going to be happy to be there but who is of a certain level that whenever something may happen to Alisson, you're going to put Etheridge in and he’s going to do a great job. "He's going to be professional. He's not going to be pulling off spectacular saves but you know what you're getting. He's decent with his feet, he does all the basics right. I think this is a good signing. He's 29 years old, he's been around, he knows what it's like to be playing at the lower level so his feet will be firmly on the ground. "He'll look at this as, 'This solidifies my family's future. If I come to Liverpool for five years, be professional, when I'm called upon do a professional job.' I think this is a great move for him and I think this is a good move for Liverpool as well. You know what you're getting. You're not panicking whenever somebody happens to your No 1."
