    We have seen each of them play a fair amount of games for us this season so which of our main keepers do you think is best and deserves to be first choice?

    Both goalkeepers are very good shot stoppers but useless when it comes to crosses

    On this season's form I would say Mignolet: and I disagree with the reply that said he was poor at crosses.

    Gordon is a top class keeper. Phenomenal shot stopper, just needs to be more forceful at the back and he needs to commit to a decision about coming for a cross or staying on his line. Mignolet has impressed too though and would be happy for him to play should Gordon get injured.

    Gordon possibly pips it for me as the better stopper but I worry about him being injury prone.
    However if we could only have either one I’d choose the ming.
    I’ve said before we should get Gordon fit, back to form and cash in.
    Yes I’m saying we should sell our best keeper……………..

    The majority seem to have said Mignolet, but he's had no votes!!

    Think both are good keepers,but will vote for Ming as he was dropped into the deep end this season and came through with flying colours in my opinion.

    He got mine!

    I was a big fan of Gordon until I witnessed the performance he put in at the Stoke game. The guy was like a rabbit in the headlights, he looked absolutely terrified! I'm having a job remembering a performance that was any worse from one of our keepers over the years.

    On his day Gordon is fantastic, but performances like that against Stoke, coupled with his many injury problems means I have to go with the Ming who has been a revelation for us during his first season in the EPL.

    Ming reminds me of a young keeper who was outstanding during his one and only season with us, one Shay Given!

    This was Gordon's worst ever performance.,but the rest of the defence didn't help him.He's a quality keeper against quality football teams...and Stoke aren't a quality team!!!

    Come on mate you cannot lay all the blame at Gordon’s door for that, he was probably shocked to see our backline all walking around with their fingers up their arses.
    Agree with your Ming comments though, Monty was/is my hero...... recon and hope Ming changes that..... lets see.....
