Having spent last season as understudy to summer signing Alisson, Simon Mignolet's long-term future at Anfield has been the subject of intense transfer speculation.

Reports in recent weeks had suggested that the Belgium international could be on his way out of Liverpool in search for first-team football, but it appears that he could still remain on Merseyside for the time being.

Speaking after the Reds' 3-1 pre-season win over Bradford, Jurgen Klopp revealed that Mignolet was set to stay and that he would continue to provide competition for Alisson for the number one jersey.

After hearing that the Belgian looked unlikely to leave this summer, Reds fans took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the matter and many were seemingly happy to accept the decision being made on the goalkeeper.

Liverpool supporters suggested that Mignolet had "earned his spot" at the club and suggested he was more than a decent back-up option for Alisson.

Indeed, some fans praised the 31-year-old's professionalism and temperament in handling the situation so well and labelled him an "absolute class act".
