Eds, any chance Klopp and Sakho could reconcile? Sakho did the months playing for the u23's (and appeared to be a help to the younger players) and then did the loan at Palace and showed again what he could do at centre back.
To be honest, I feel vvd is a good player but not sure he worth 50/ 60/ 70 mil. We will have a lot of games in 17/ 18, I hope, and will need a strong squad (not just a big squad) as I want us to be competitive in all cups. A team like pool should have a second team that should be strong enough to be mid-table premier in its own right.
Don't get me wrong I feel we need to offload a number but we should try and keep some also. Then bring in some to offer proper competition to the first team.

{Ed002's Note - I cannot answer "any chance" questions but Liverpool have asked his agent to find a buyer, but Palace are not keen on the asking price - which was the easy fix for all. VVD would not be a Sakho replacement - he would replace one of the players registered with the club.}

Really don't see why anybody thinks Sakho is good enough for us. He is a total liability. He has you on the edge of your seat which is the last thing you want from your centre half! As soon as there is an ounce of pressure put on him with the ball at his feet he panics. He's basically Djimi Traore on steroids.

have to agree with Robbie23 if he played for anyone else Sakho would not be rated by any one. when you are defending for a team like palace with loads of players round you and you keep diving in and making last gasp blocks you do look good look at phil jones at Blackburn or Dejan Lovren at Southampton. I don't won't to see Sakho as the last man on the halfway line with the ball at his feet in a Liverpool shirt ever again please.

Spot on, Grino. People just look at other players in this case defenders, who play well in a different system than us and think that they will do well here. The same goes for Keane at Burnley. He looks good cos there are loads of players around him to shield him. That won't happen here so people should stop with these comparisons are they are pointless.

The irony of people who want VVD saying that Sakho only looks good surrounded by 2 defensive lines so he can dive in and make flashy last ditch challenges.
