Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet will not be included in the match day squad for the game against Arsenal this afternoon, even though he is not ill or injured.
Twitter: No Simon Mignolet in the Liverpool squad today. He’s not ill or injured. Loris Karius will play. #afc #lfc https://t.co/umCUlAe7dT (@HLNinEngeland)
Loris Karius looks set to start the game, with Danny Ward taking a place on the substitute’s bench.
As of yet, there is no reason for Mignolet’s absence, with the timing seeming strange ahead of a big game.
The Belgian was dropped last season and replaced by Karius but after the German struggled, Mignolet was brought back into the side and played well.
He’s had an indifferent start to this season and had a few dicey moments against Hoffenheim but, if the reports are true that he’s fit to play, it will be a big call for Jurgen Klopp to drop him once again.
