Gary Neville says Simon Mignolet should have done better against Demba Ba following Steven Gerrard slip against Chelsea
Gary Neville has given his opinion on Steven Gerrard’s infamous slip against Chelsea at Anfield in 2014.With the score 0-0, the Liverpool captain lost possession and was unable to recover as Demba Ba pounced and finished beyond Simon Mignolet.Chelsea later scored another through Willian to seal a 2-0 win and effectively end Liverpool’s Premier League title challenge.Steven Gerrard reacts after his costly mistake2

While Gerrard has shouldered much of the blame, former Manchester United defender Gary Neville believes Mignolet could have done better and that current goalkeeper Alisson would have saved Ba’s effort.“I’ve not said this before because at the time, it was such a deep wound for Liverpool fans and Steven Gerrard personally,” Neville toldMonday Night Football.“I thought the keeper should have done better. I’ve never said it before.Demba Ba scores the opening goal for Chelsea2

“If that was a moment later on this season, I think Alisson would save it. I think eight times out of ten, he would save it.“I think it’s a scuffed shot from Demba Ba, I don’t think he looks confident. It goes in and nobody ever blamed Mignolet for that goal.“I don’t think you can blame him, I don’t think you can say he was at fault, but Alisson would have saved it.”Liverpool are the current Premier League leaders and should they continue their excellent unbeaten form, then they will go some way to erasing those painful memories.
