Simon Mignolet looking forward to cement his place in the Liverpool team – Football News

New http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 signing, Simon Mignolet, has insisted that he will work hard to cement his place in the starting line-up. The former Sunderland goalkeeper claimed that he has faced competition all his life and stated that it is good
for the team.
Mignolet made the switch from Sunderland for a transfer fee of £9 million and sealed the move yesterday after passing the medical. The move has raised questions over the role of Pepe Reina in the team and further increased speculation
on the Spaniard’s move to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 this summer.
Many have argued that why would Liverpool spend such an amount on a goalkeeper who will be on the bench for the next season. However, there are reports that a transfer has already been agreed between the former European champions
and Liverpool.
The Belgian shot stopper claimed that competition for places is a very good sign for the team and admitted that he has faced the same situation at any club he has played.
“Competition can only be a good thing. I've been in big competitions wherever I've been - in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Craig-Gordon-c9476 and Keiren Westwood, who are international goalies,” he was quoted
as saying in an interview.
The former Sunderland goalkeeper added that he is looking forward to compete with the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pepe-Reina-c29672 and Brad Jones. The player expressed his delight on signing for Liverpool and admitted that he has always dreamed of playing
for a big club.
“Pepe is an experienced goalkeeper who has proven a lot over the years. I'm looking forward to working with him, the same as I am with Brad and the goalie coach. You want to play in the big games, you want to play for a big club
and to play with pressure. I'm very confident in myself and I can't wait to get the first clean sheet under my belt,” he concluded.
Simon Mignolet made 90 league appearances for Sunderland in his three years at the club and won the Belgian Goalkeeper of the Year award in 2010.
