Can people stop making excuses for Sakho? If it was an accident then he's a Muppet and we should fine him and he deserves a big ban. If it was deliberate then he's a cheat and should have his contract terminated with immediate effect.

Either way he is going to get banned. He has tested positive for a banned substance. There is no grey area. He cheated. It's black an white. Getting a B sample is probably futile unless the first test was completely wrong; which I doubt but hope is the reality.

Even if it was accidental I will support the club should they decide to release him. It would seem odd though seeing as we signed Toure after he was punished for something similar and he is now a cult hero the club has apparently offered or it plans to offer a player/ coaching role to.

We take the ban on the chin though however long it may be, and if the club believes it is right to release him, we have to support their decision. Simples.

He may just have been misled, or just stupid, it's only cheating if he knew it was a banned substance. It's not a class A drug or a performance enhancing drug. Talking about people going over the top.

{Ed002's Note - The players have a very clear understanding of what substances are banned.}

Only Sakho can really answer if he is just thick or taking a banned substance knowingly.

He is a professional football player and there is no excuse for stupidity. People are not going over the top, but right to point out that he has not been professional whichever way you look at it.

The guys a fool, especially if he knows he's putting his career and Liverpool's participation in competitions in danger. What makes it worse is he's playing alongside a teammate in toure that was banned for the exact same thing! Good player or not, what a fool.
