Simon Mignolet is still underrated by the media and many fans alike
No other Premier League stopper has kept as many clean-sheets (11) as Simon Mignolet in 2015. He’s solid, and took crosses exceptionally against the Cherries early on and later when they began to press. Most impressively is Mignolet’s ability to hold on to pinged shots, or driven crosses. He rarely ever spills them or parries them – but it rarely draws any praise either. This season he’s been asked to attempt more long kicks, and his ability to land it on Benteke’s head has been noticeable as well. A promising start to the season.
