GK Loris Karius /// Predicted FIFA 17 OVR 81 /// Latest FIFA 16 OVR 80
Ah, Liverpool’s sweet prince. Our night in shining armor to come rescue us from the opprobrious dictatorship ran under Simon Mignolet, full of quizzical facial expressions, standing out of position and flapping at crosses.
That analogy works well on a few levels. In the footballing sense, Liverpool badly needed a new keeper. Karius seems confident, brash and unafraid to claim a cross, as well as being a good shotstopper.
On the superficial level, well, just look at his face and hair. He could absolutely by typecast as a prince in a Hollywood flick.
In FIFA, he got a 80 in last years game meaning making 81 a reasonable expectation this year after being voted second best Bundesliga keeper last year.
