Milner on Mignolet: “He has the best attitude I’ve ever seen in my life”

James Milner has praised the attitude of Simon Mignolet after the Belgian effectively became Liverpool’s sub goalkeeper this season.

Mignolet has featured just twice throughout the campaign since the arrival of Alisson Becker from Roma last summer.

However, despite being relegated to the bench, the Belgian has played an important role behind the scenes for the Reds, and Milner has been thoroughly impressed by his professionalism.

“[We have] quality players throughout, and some who aren’t even travelling sometimes,” Milner said.

“Someone who hasn’t been spoken about much this season – Simon Mignolet.

“It’s incredible how he is around the training ground, he has the best attitude I’ve ever seen in my life.

“Every single day, he pushes himself and pushes Ali and the boys to improve. Nobody will ever speak about him in the press because he’s not on the field, but he’s been so important for us this season.

“That’s exactly what you need, great characters. Even if you’re not playing as much as you would like, the characters in the dressing room are still standing up.”
