Re: The Official "Why does BR prefer Lovren to Sakho" thread

[iftikhar]

A poll on popular Liverpool fan site This is Anfield shows 91 percent of voters opting for Sakho to start ahead of the £20 million former Southampton man Lovren. One can only presume the other 9 percent are Stoke City fans, various members of Lovren's family and possibly even Rodgers himself.

[Red Alert]

if Lovren can take his late season form or find his Southampton form,.

1) His Southampton form is a myth. Get off youtube / whoscored and watch him play.
2) What "late season form"?

[sportsczy]

ok... i must admit that now i'm stunned with Sakho being ostracized like this. Watched a couple of Liverpool games and he can surely do better than either Lovren or Skrtel.

[Red Alert]

I hope Sakho goes to Madrid and plays next to Varane.

[sportsczy]

Sakho is nowhere near Madrid quality... but he deserves better than what he's getting right now. He's at least on part with Lovren and Skrtel and he's young so you have upside. He's also played at a high level before.

It's a bit baffling

[Red Alert]

He's WAY ABOVE both Lovren and Skrtel.

Only reason he's "no where near Madrid quality" is because he's stagnating sitting under an idiot of a manager.

He would start over Pepe / Ramos next to Varane. Especially as he would have a decent coach in Rafa over there. Liverpool literally has no structure at the back. Think people are forgetting how good Sakho is.

The Lovren deception is amazing. He was voted worst center back in Ligue 1 TWO YEARS IN A ROW by the media.... has 1 good season at Southampton... and everybody chooses to ignore his entire career other than his 1 good season

[Red Alert]

He ALWAYS was shit.

Clowns like El Cujo read too much on the internet / play Football Manager and don't watch enough games.

Lovren didn't even have a "good" season at Southampton. He was decent, solid in most games but he wasn't "good".

The amount of times Wanyama, Schneleden and Fonte covered his useless ass was the reason he looked anywhere next to "good".

Fonte was always their rock back there. It's the reason they've now made him captain, got rid of Osvaldo and have continued to endlessly back him from the Coca Cola league. Fonte has been "good" for them. And Fonte is still not at a level good enough where we want to be. :SSS

What ever was the reason, Rodgers has to bite the bullet now.
