Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has welcomed the competition for the number one spot between Pepe Reina and Simon Mignolet.
He said: “I always felt it was important for us to have competition right the way through the squad, and that includes the goalkeepers. “I spoke to Pepe about this a few months back and told him we wanted to bring in another goalkeeper as real competition. I was very open with my goalkeepers and they know the situation.
“Pepe has been terrific here, Brad Jones was excellent when he stood in last year and I felt we needed another one.
“Simon comes in and we’ve got great competition and when you’ve got competition it pushes everyone to perform.” (Sky Sports)
This will surely make Reina to have a rethink of his future at the club, as he will not want to be back-up to Mignolet. Who will surely be the clubs number one stopper?
