What did we get in the end for Sakho? He's better than that although maybe they're ages and contact situations aren't comparable.
We sold Solanke for 19m and he couldn't get on the bench half the time. Dejan can be the mustard sometimes and is WC finalist - ideally I would like £30m.
Lovren is very underrated by many LFC fans. Yes he's prone to the odd mistake but most CB's are. He was good enough to play in a CL and World Cup final recently and rarely lets us down. Like everyone else, my preferred partnership is Gomez/VVD but I am delighted with the quality of our CB quartet and Lovren and Matip are very good options from the bench. Given that he is only 29 and probably has at least 2 or 3 good seasons left in him I think we'd be mad to sell.
We need a new Moreno to keep Salah happy so he'll have to stay
He's fourth best in a quartet that includes Joel Matip.
Read that again.
They all have big balls when they're beside VVD. If we were to lose him and need the others to step up, I'd trust Joe to still be a strong player. I fear that Matip and especially Lovern would crumble under the pressure. For me, he's like Can was... Swans around the field like he's the best in the world, and usually does fine - only fine - but all too often just doesn't do the right thing.

Supposedly, the big teams in Italy are circling - including Roma and Inter.
inter will sell their stud CB for 60+ ... so we'll get 20+ for Lovren imo.

Never deal with Italian clubs.
I'm blaming the iPhone
The problem with Lovren is the sum of his parts when it comes to his value to the team.
Staying fit for more a longer period then 7 games, high wages, error prone, not suited to the way we play anymore and being one big jinxy bastard. He’s very good when he is good, but has these brain farts in nearly every game. We can do much better and its time to move him on.
Inter, Milan and Napoli have the cash.
15-20 mill and I’d sell him. Easy.

He’s worth more than 15, but then again, those high wages are a factor.
Fuckin Jobs meddling from the beyond
We’ve done pretty well out of Roma in the last two years
Agreed, but rather 15-20 and get the wages out of the way. Injuries, 29 years old and 2 years left on his contract.
How well have we done selling to Italian clubs?
Yes, selling to Italian clubs is a nightmare.
That’s not the statement you made.
