    His targets were available, just not at our valuations. And sometimes you have to compromise.

    For me the club have shafted him......and to rub salt in the wounds, are looking at compensation when he was suspended!! I dont think he has played for us since. If it was me Id be well p!ssed off


    No one knows the truth thou outside the club. So how can the club have shafted him? End of the day Klopp is creating an atmosphere in the club. Maybe sakho is poison in the dressing room. PSG got rid fairly quick too. It's all ifs and buts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,740 ✭✭✭✭MD1990


    Don't understand getting so outraged about Sakho's handshake. It probably wasn't the wisest thing to do but I wouldn't hold it against him.

    He always put his body on the line for us & he is a far superior defender to Lovren.
    Something pretty bad must have happened behind the scenes with Sakho because Klopp definitely rated him during his most of last season.

    It was clearly designed as a wind up, they knew what they would do if Palace scored. No other reason for Sakho being where he was.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,385 ✭✭✭✭noodler


    Sakho is a professional with Palace at the moment.

    He was teammates with Benteke for a year before that.

    "wind up Klopp" some say.

    Pretty incredible to be honest.

    Him being on the bench and then congratulating Benteke the way he did is an obvious wind up to Klopp. It was not just him congratulating his teamate.
    I for one would not like to see him play for us again, he obviously has attitude problems and I would prefer us to shop else where to solve our defensive problems.

    I'd love to see him play for us again.

    I wouldn't hold a player at another club celebrate a goal with a teammate.

    More of an F U Kloppo IMO :)

    Shame really, play well on the field, get the fans questioning Klopps decision, speak highly about wanting to play for Liverpool again and then sit on the bench when you're not in the squad (does that ever happen?) and celebrate a goal at Anfield against Liverpool. I dont particularly care about stuff like this but I can understand why some people will turn on that kind of behaviour. He'll never play for Liverpool again anyway, that just confirms it tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,788 ✭✭✭brevity


    Klopp has an air of Wenger or Ferguson about him

    Marca are reporting the club have been in discussions with Isco's father who is also his agent.

    Indeed. Let's not be naive. He's a professional footballer. He knows that every public moment and action gets scrutinized. He knew exactly what message that was sending when he did it. A shame, but I very much doubt he'll play for us again now.

    Authoritive, takes limited messing and ruthless if you overstep the well defined line.

    Not a bad way to be.

    and also likely using us to find him a better deal

    Let the monitoring begin! :) 12 months left on deal, far too obvious

    Why would it be pretty incredible? He could easily have an axe to grind with Klopp over being dropped and this could have easily been a way for him to wind him up.
    Can you tell us why he would even be on the bench when he was ineligible to play?
    It seems a lot more plausible that he was trying to wind up Klopp rather than him just simply congratulating Benteke.

    We will have to add "Monitoring" to the thread title :)

    But we didn't compromise, Klopp/FSG just sat on their hands, did nothing and bought no one. Even thou they were well aware of what Nukacola has just outlined. We were well in the hunt for the title and they did fúck all. Now we are struggling to get top four, banking on other teams to mess up.

    Criminal carry on from one or both parties.

    Good luck to both Sturridge and Sakho when they eventually leave at the end of the season. Both lacking either the mental fortitude or mental capability to play for Liverpool. Neither could be relied upon by us for one reason or another the last couple of seasons.

    Isco & Asensio both reported within a week. Watch now it'll all stem from a Liverpool representative being at one Real game when on his holidays, or something.

    Isn't Woodgate a former Real player our scout over there.

    Woodgate isn't a scout with Liverpool any more.
    I won't hold my breath on signing Madrid players, but it would be very good if it happened lol

    Scouting Real Madrid players..... sounds ludicrous.

    Not really.

    There's a steady stream of cast-offs from these clubs.

    Yeah definitely, cast off's from the giant teams are the absolute best place to go shopping, when they're looking for the next shiny thing. Arsenal have done very well with that, getting in Ozil and Sanchez... it's been their other substandard signings that have caused their problems.

    Champions League winner.. lol.
    I meant players like Isco and Asensio.. Agree with Gbear. Madrid get rid of some great players.

    Knowing how the PR machine works these days, it's probably an announcement of when the new kit will be unveiled.

    You got that 100% right. They're unveiling the new jersey on Thursday.

    It's the standard formula and you're possibly seeing it again with James Rodriguez.

    Buy the next big thing around 21-23 and **** him off at 25/26 when he's not literally the best player ever, or else because you're three managers down the road and they want to go in a different direction.

    If Zidane doesn't win La Liga, then I would imagine things will be put on hold a bit until they find his replacement, but it would probably lead to even more players being moved on.

    As a bonus, they tend to be the only ones who can nick players off our rivals.

    Another thing is Real's academy is ludicrous and the half of the players in Spain who didn't come from La Masia probably came from there - the likes of Mata, Diego Lopez, Juanfran, Saul Niguez, our own Arbeloa and of course they often end up buying them back.

    Wonder how long Morata will last.
    Not sure I rate him as the sort of £50m signing he's likely to be but he'll probably be another one booted out the door.

    James pearce saying tonight that the club are willing to break our transfer record for van diijk. Also sports bild in germany are claiming we are in for douglas costa

    More than a bit stubborn, frustrating when purchasing players.
