3 Reasons Why Liverpool Should Trust Loris Karius

#2 Karius has a point to prove now

TOPSHOT-FBL-EUR-C1-LIVERPOOL-REAL MADRID — Karius' horror show cost Liverpool dearly

A player is the most dangerous when he has a point to prove. Take for example David de Gea of Manchester United. He was maligned and criticised in several quarters. But he put his head down and worked hard to put his past replete with skittish displays behind him and became the best goalkeeper in the world.

Loris Karius will be keen to impress the Kop now. He had been showing signs of getting better. But in the precarious position that he finds himself in, Karius will need to shape up or ship out of Anfield.

It's not like he will be playing internationally for Germany ahead of Neuer or ter Stegen. So his focus will be on showing up in style for his club and that is the reason why Liverpool should give him another chance.
