I'm still embarrassed over the fact that we signed that shit player. Terrible scouting.

Well, he is not all that bad compared to some absolute whoopers some of our rivals have signed - but yeah, Klopp was right to get rid of him quickly.

Yeah sure, but Sakho was missing the basics. The man couldn't pass, never seen anyone hit so many telegraphed passes. Looked like he had to focus in order to connect with the ball.
 
Didn’t we end up making a profit from his sale? Better defender than people give credit for, wasn’t helped he was paired with either Kolo, Lovren or Skrtel.

Basically a stronger and more muscular version of Djimi Traore - the defensive legend of LFC who has a CL medal to his name.
 
I think the criticism is over the top.

Not good enough but was nowhere near the worst players in that period and certainly nowhere near our worst scouting efforts.

He also was part of some of our best performances in that period.

Pretty much but that CL medal carries some respect with it. Especially since Traore started the final.

Yeah and he's the one who played that dumb pass to Gerrard that made him slip too.
 
He was good at painting houses.

Not so good at football though.
 
Didnt he score the winner against Dortmund? It was either that or the one before Lovren scored the winner, either way a key goal for us
 
Not our worst player and I had a soft spot for him. Mostly because he was such a cult figure at PSG. Youngest ever club captain in Ligue1 history and captained the side just 4 months after signing his first professional contract. Just a monster on the pitch.

Sadly, wasnt good enough and his career stalled because of his unprofessionalism. Klopp made the right move and in the end he is just another meh player that have worn the red shirt.

I still have doubts about Konate.

His biggest weakness holding him back from being a top class CB is his positioning, which is partly what also what let Sakho down. Fix that up and we’ve got a great defender on our hands but too often he steps out of his defensive line and then it caught behind play.
He’s had a lot of very good games but also enough games for fans to have these doubts.

His pace gets him out of a lot of trouble. Sakho's problem wasn't just positioning though.

If he steps out too often then that is a Klopp problem not a Konate one. So if Klopp is happy with that then the issue becomes that of the DM or other defenders.
