I agree with Phill red, Sako cant dribble only side foots the ball and flaps every time a player runs at him, i cant count the times when he has been responsible for us losing the game. Remember the famous side pass to Gerard when he could of easily played the ball up the pitch, he has never been good enough for LFC and while where at it IMO we should get rid of allen, lucas, skirtel, henderson, toure and upgrade the keeper as these players have had their day. Klopp is a great manager but no miracle worker, you can only do so much with the players you have at hand which i think he has but we desperately need to bring in some new players preferably not one season wonders.

Sakho is 23, Hummel is 27, i prefer Sakho,
moreover Toure and Lucas are exp backups not
expected to play all games.

Sorry, when I hear that my beloved LFC are supposedly interested in signing Hatem Ben Arfur, a Bournemouth striker and West Ham full-back, whilst also considering giving Old Father Time Kolo Toure yet another contract, I want to weep.
Kolo Toure has been a stop-gap for a couple of years but if he is the best we can do then heaven help us. Hatem Ben Arfur wasn’t exactly the best player Newcastle had so unless he has improved dramatically, astonishingly, he shouldn’t even be considered for Liverpool.
When we want to dominate the footballing world most people would suggest we spend money in place like Munich, Madrid or Barcelona and NOT in places like Bournemouth on players who did quite well getting the Cherries into the top league but who, through injury, has only played a few games this year.
If we are serious about making progress we need to be after players like Lewandowski, Hummels and Reus and not scampering around in the footballing equivalent of the Poundshop.
Timo Horn, the Cologne keeper, Hector, the Cologne and Germany full-back, Hummels, Reus, a decent defensive midfield organiser and a prolific striker are better bets than Newcastle cast-offs who can only cut it in the lousy French league.
We need to spend, and spend big, but the one thing we don’t need is to spend what money we’ve got on players barely as good, if at all, as the ones we’ve already got.
And we’ve also got to forget loyalty to players who are simply not good enough (Toure, Lucas, Sakho, etc.) and get rid of them for the benefit of the club as a whole.
Please, let us not get carried away and imply that Sakho is now God’s gift to football. He may be doing better than before but he still looks like a mistake about to happen every time the ball goes near him. Would you rather have him . . . or Hummels? I rest my case.
