I really can't see sakho getting a move this summer judging by what we ask for players we will value him at 15+ mill and there will be no takers, I just can't see us sending him on loan or selling at a level other clubs would be interested in.
24 Jul 2015 12:43:27
He is a good player and we bough him at close to 20 mill, How much do you want us sell him? 5 mill? He has been playing regluar games at the club and a french international.
{Ed002's Note - He played in less than half of the league games according to his agent.}
24 Jul 2015 12:58:36
his agent should ask how many of those were due to injury
{Ed002's Note - Sakho was of interest to another side earlier in the season when he had been replaced by Lovren and is not getting regular game time with Liverpool. The issue will be that Liverpool will probably not be looking to loan him out. If they don't want to sell they need to speak to his agent and make that clear.}

Thats not correct, We played with back three and there were only 4 defenders with the club last season. He was injured to some extent last season.
It was Can-Skrtel-Sakho throughout.
{Ed002's Note - So all 38 games then. I have no idea where you get this nonsense from.}

I don't want to keep a player against his will, but I think we should try and keep him another season at least. Sweet talk him a little, with the amount of games we have he will get time. Next season toure will go, and one of lovren or sakho if he has not left already, I would rather try and delay it until then and allow lovren a 2nd chance. If he is still poor then we can sell lovren and guarantee sakho games easier

I don't want him sold EG I'm just stating that as a club we will price him at a level that there won't be any interest we have a number of players that were bought at high prices have not played and are now not going to fetch the rate we paid. We either sell them at a loss and remove the burden of their wages or they stay in the squad and we carry on paying them either way we will have to bite the bullet on some of them.
24 Jul 2015 13:18:24
So EG. at no point did Sakho storm out the dressing room and go home about not being in the squad let alone the starting 11
24 Jul 2015 13:19:59
Aside from the 1st two games of the season when he was on the bench, he played every game that he was fit for. 16 games, was taken off in 2 of those. Fact is he missed 20 league games due to injuries including a thigh muscle strain & a hamstring.
I really hope the club tell him he's 1st choice and they don't want to sell and he's satisfied with that. Then obviously they should stick to their word. Surely if anyone has to play Europa League to earn a place it's Lovren.

I did not say that Ed02, He was out injured for a large part of the season.
24 Jul 2015 13:50:46
Last season, as per Transfermrkt, Sakho's Premier League appearances were as follows:
Squad: 18, Starting eleven: 15, Substituted in: 1, On the bench: 2, Suspended: 0, Injured: 20
Of the 15 starts he played 90 mins in all but one, 68mins v West Ham when he went off injured and this was the start of missing the next 11 games with a thigh injury.
I really hope he stays and I really hope he plays.

The club has committed mistakes in assuring games and positions to some and not to others. The reason Sakho came out from PSG was due lack of games and that's quite natural at every top club. He might play a lot of games at Lazio and that's a fantastic attitude for a player who wants to play rather than be at a club, But it has its onsequences as his resume will stop at Lazio.
Brendan doesn't like the player and prefers Lovren at the Left side and Sakho cannot move his right foot by a centimeter.

Sakho was ready to be put in the team by Mid november,we didn't play him until Burnley at the end of December I think.We kept lovren on the bench or toure
