Surprising twist

[7_Kewell]

Not sure it means anything. He's playing a reserve match and is a long, long, long way short of match fitness. Let alone getting anywhere near the first team squad.

Only caught 20 minutes of the game but Sakho looked imperious at the back.

Reports from France suggesting Sakho will be put up for sale in January and no way back with Klopp.

Yeah L'Equipe are apparently reporting that Klopp and Sakho's relationship has deteriorated beyond the point of no return. Sad if true, you feel Sakho had really found his spiritual home here, he wasnt just a fan favourite he was a cult hero and he was well on his way to being club captain but there can only ever be one boss at LFC and that's the manager.
This is Jurgen's club now, he calls the shots.

How times change.  Very sad as we need to replace him, he's not surplus to requirements.

Sakho is clearly a larger than life character but an example to just to young but any players that being a top footballer is much more than kicking a ball, in this case respect for work colleagues comes to mind and understanding boundaries.

I was never a fan of him on the pitch but appreciate he endeared himself to the Liverpool community with charity work and was seemingly well thought of in that way, so ultimately it just feels like its a bit of a shame.

[red till i die!!]

We are not missing him anyway.  
Ship him out and recoup what we can because he won't be playing for us again and there is no point in letting his contract run down.

I liked Sakho and really thought he will become our future captain. Well his ruined it himself. Anyhow im happy with the progress Lovren has made and his formidable pairing with Matip. Really atm were not missing Sakho.

Do any of you gossip queens actually know what the fallout was over?

Don't think it was one particular incident, more an accumulation of things (i.e. the fat burning pills saga, turning up late for team meetings, refusing to go out on loan, rows with the manager etc)
Don't forget he was sent home early from the pre-season tour of the states for disciplinary reasons, this thing has been rumbling on a while.

Yeah,    Seems like the pre-season tour was where it started.

Just wish the fella had taken it as a sign he had too get his head down and work his way back into favour, sadley it hasn't happend.

[7_Kewell]

Reports in France say Sakho is 99% certain to leave in January. I don't think he'll be back. Fingers crossed we can get our money back for him.

[Reg]

We paid 18 million for the lad, he wasn't cheap....

Sakho becomes the Reds' seventh signing of the summer transfer window, joining Luis Alberto, Iago Aspas, Aly Cissokho, Tiago Ilori, Simon Mignolet and Kolo Toure in Brendan Rodgers' squad.
