C'mon, let's wear the big boi's pantz. Expect us to win

Don't care about the FA Cup, we ain't in it, so who gives
Oh yeah I expect us to win, we're at home. But you just never know with us. I dont think we will lose. But a draw at this stage of the season is as good as a loss. Gotta keep getting maximum.

Dude, you have a genuine bias blind spot when it comes to Sakho

This isn't a headache, this is a fat burning pill, those things have always been dicey, they ain't pills you pop casually. You go tell Jurgen why he shouldn't be upset that one of his players being paid big wages by the football club is popping one of those without consulting the club.

Also Higenamine is banned in some ways, it just wasn't stated clearly on the list, it wasn't black and white at all. I think WADA has changed it since, so I'd say Sakho got away with one rather than being completely hard done by

If Sakho runs someone over with a car you'd still think he's being hard done by

Coffee isn't a banned for footballers but caffeine is in large enough quantities. This case is absolutely black or white - Sahko consulted WADA before using a commonly available fat burner. And good on him for wanting to get himself fit and checking it out with WADA first.

Your last comment doesn't even justify a response.

I am not gonna keep arguing with you about it because you have clearly nailed your colors to the mast when it comes to Sakho. Not letting the club know he uses a fat burner to boost performance (legally or illegally) when those things are full of danger is stupid. The club pays him 100k per week, they have every right to be mad at him for keeping them in the dark.

Go actually read up on beta2 agonists and higenamine, they are banned now, it was only ambiguity of how they were listed that made it unclear. WADA banned B2 agonists the class of drugs, what they didn't make clear is exactly which ones, which higenamine belongs to. Sakho got lucky and got off on technicality and WADA's own mistake

Then Sakho's response to the fiasco is to be late to everything and being disruptive when he was around, so Jurg kicked him to the curb, then he threw another fit when he didn't get put straight back in the team. He deserves everything he gets for being an idiot. You're excusing him for everything, yet if it's Mario Balotelli doing it you'd be slaughtering him

I've read all up on beta2 agonists and so forth. Nothing changes the fact that Sakho consulted WADA"s very own app to see if the fat burner he was using was legal to use for athletes. And it gave him the all clear - thus why his suspension was rightfully revoked. He was not at fault.

Go back through the thread and you'll see that I had a go at Sakho for mucking around on tour. Nothing major though in my eyes. It seems some Liverpool fans simply can't admit when Klopp got things wrong - he got it wrong with the Sakho situation this season and it has cost us points. That's all done and dusted now but I can only hope that Klopp doesn't let a personal feud affect the team again in the future.

Yet again, you are still ignoring the fact that he took it behind the club's back without the club's knowledge, when fat burners have always been dangerous and questionable. Yet again you're ignoring the fact that it wasn't on the list based on error, WADA banned the class of drug which higenamine belongs to, but didn't list higenamine explicitly which is a mistake. It was a technicality and not black and white, higenamine is actually illegal

Nothing major in your eyes, but you are not the Liverpool manager. Jurgen is doing his first preseason at the club which has always been important for his team, then you have this guy being late and being a dickhead, so he set an example and standard at the football club, and he was absolutely correct to do so.

The way you're blaming Jurg for Sakho's own misbehaviour is staggering, it's Sakho that has cost the club by being a dickhead, not Jurgen's fault for laying down the law. I am glad we have a manager who's gonna set the club culture straight and this kinda shit isn't allowed anymore, that's how you get back to the top. Last time we had a lax culture it was the spice bois era and it was terrible. Blaming a manager for setting high standards is an utterly stupid thing to do

I like him but I'm gonna be glad he gets sold, because it'll stop all the whingers who keep going on about Sakho

Sakho looks pretty skinny, anyone know where he bought the fat burners from? Asking for a mate.

Happy to have Lucas starting in a DM type role. Not happy if he lines up as a centre half.

To be fair to cooldude, would assume he knows a bit about the WADA code being a bombers fan :$

That's a joke by the way :D

What are the chances Benteke scores a hatty against us.

Who's Brewster? Good on him for making it

Close to full strength in the end
17 year old striker that was playing U18s earlier in the season but when Ings got injured and Brooks Lennon went to USA he got called up to the U23s.

FFS you really need to get over Klopp dropping Sakho. Sakho is an immature twat who at 27 has a long history of not being professional.

He was sent home from the US tour for not one, not two, but THREE disciplinary breaches including interrupting a Klopp press conference.

Add to it the stupid snap chat outburst and leaving the ground in a huff before a game when Rogers dropped him and you can see a pattern emerging on his behaviour.

But as was pointed out to you before, Ancelloti and Blanc had the same problems with him at PSG, so at what point do you wake up and spot the common denominator here?

Hint, it isn't Klopp.

Klopp got the Sakho situation all wrong. If you're gonna exile a player at least buy a replacement. Not sure why some Liverpool fans have trouble acknowledging he got it wrong. All those points pissed up the wall where we were fielding spuds like Klavan & Lucas are on him. If he decided not to buy a replacement this season bite the bullet and use Sakho. It's not rocket science and I don't want to see the same situation repeat itself with another player.
