I honestly can't believe fans that still think Sakho is a weak defender. He is our best defender, ungainly yes, but a class act. He very rarely misplaces passes, just need to keep him fit.

Lovren looking solid too, pleased for him seems to have turned a corner. Honestly didn't think he had it in him.

Not sure Moreno is the answer. I personally like the guy, he's lightning quick, but gets caught out of position a lot.

Clyne blows hot and cold, will do better next season.

Just a keeper, left back and a winger needed.

Moreno needs to be at a team like Real Madrid where you can focus 85% on Attacking and 15% on defending. Because he is a massive liability for us defensively, however much of an attacking outlet he is.

Yes he's made a couple of mistakes but no more than the rest of the defence and keeper.

Sakho's only problems are his heading, and his tendency to try his luck too much and play himself or the team into trouble. He's otherwise pretty great.

Problem I have with Moreno is even when attacking his end product needs to improve. Crosses are a bit random whether they reach a defender or a Liverpool player and he's way too one-footed, lacking the ability to cut inside effectively.

One can perhaps forgive The defensive lapses if he's creating a significant no. of goals for us, but that isn't true yet, he's just creating dangerous situations that aren't quite finished off.

He has talent and potential but needs to improve.

I really have to disagree with the Sakho bit. I can see he has improved and his passing is looking better but as another post suggests his heading is not great and for centre half it's probably the 1 position where it needs to be good, he also has a tendency to throw himself at things in dangerous areas. He lacks the ability to remain composed and I appreciate this is because of his desire to win the ball but he just needs to stand up. His communication is also suspect considering he's clashed heads with Can on 3 occasions recently when he is comming on to the ball.
I don't think he is terrible and I'm not saying I want him out but I don't think he should be first choice.

{Ed001's Note - is that terrible communication or a case of two players committing? How do you know Can did not hear but decided to risk the clash of heads anyway? Just like when a centre back heads it clear just as it is about to fall into the keeper's grasp, it is not always because the keeper has poor communication, sometimes it is a player has made up their mind to make sure they deal with it.}

Once maybe but 3 times. Plus I was at the Augsburg game and you could see that Sakho did not give a big coommanding shout when stepping on to the ball that you would expect from a centre back.

Sakho has its flaws. He is poor in the air and once you nutmeg him, He doesn't track back to cover up. He is completely one footed.
His passing from the back is his best and biggest quality. He infact is a better passer than any of our midfield players except Lucas.

What was interesting on Thursday was how much responsibility he had with possession, it very much seems that the plan was for all attacks to start with him.

I have to admit I still can't work him out, he's an integral part of an improving defence but his style scares me. There were a few dodgy moments on Thursday, the air ball, the trip on Mata and when he misjudged a ball and it bounced over him. He doesn't inspire confidence in the way that someone like Hyppia did.

I do feel sorry for young Moreno at times . He gets some stick from fans.
Yes, he makes some defensive mistakes. but his speed in getting back has saved us on numerous occasions this season.
His marauding forward is great to watch. and I for one would be sad to see him leave.

{Ed001's Note - he only saves himself from his woeful positioning, his marauding forward is not good to watch when it is costing us repeatedly due to his stupidity. He needs to learn when to go forward and what to do with the ball when he does get forward. Oh and to not just stand right on the opposition full back.}

Sakho is a monumental beast.

"he's crap in the air"

What planet are you from? Do you not see the countless clearing headers he's made from long balls? Not only that, the headers are usually strong ones and go quite a distance.

Additionally, he's not a covering defender. He's an aggressive defender who likes to put pressure on the attacker. This naturally comes with the occasional mistake or the occasional embarrassing nutmeg.

Sakho is our best defender bar none and in my honest opinion, he'll become one of the best in the league.

Moreno should not be playing for LFC. I rarely slate players but for me he is exactly what we do not need. Flannagan on left is so much more sound.

Her, some people don't like Sahko, end of. Even when he has a solid game overall, they will go watch the game again to nit pick the one time he slipped, missed a header or was caught out and then point to that as a concern, as if footballers are perfect and will never make mistakes. Kompany in all his glory, makes mistakes in games but because it doesn't cost them, they are overlooked because well, people love him come rain or shine. Funny that and error prone defender like Skrtel is allowed to make mistakes yet Sahko isn't allowed such courtesy. Sahko is a very good CB and for long periods, been our best CB but he has his detractors and they will never be pleased until he has perfect games.

Most lefties are completely one footed. Very rarely will you see a left footer cut inside. I remember Robben beating a keeper three times just so he could hit an empty net from ten yards out with his left. Hasn't hurt him has it? and think in another year or two Moreno will be seen as a vital part of Klopps set up.

He gets a right b#@#@#king from Klopp every game but I have the feeling that's because Klopps knows he can and should be doing better so is on his back more.

Redohio do you not think a truly great centre half should go pretty much unnoticed. For me the best centre backs read the game well and do the basics very well 99% of the time. Which cannot be said of Sakho, as I've said before he does have qualities that I appreciate but he is no way a great centre back.
The reason his faults become highlighted are because of his unorthodox way in which he does things which look awkward and unnerving. The best example I can think of would be Alan Hansen not a monster in the tackle and not blessed with blistering pace but just went about his business largely unnoticed but without putting a foot wrong the majority of the time.

should klopp keep having to give him a rollocking every match, when will the penny drop with this guy? i'm not bothered that he is all left foot, it's his positional sense and lack of tracking back plus his tackling that let's him down, he can count himself lucky he is still starting at left back, klopp does not seem like the kind of guy who likes repeating himself, if Moreno wants to stay long term he had better buck his ideas up imo.
