Sakho suspended by Liverpool

[Hansern]

No danger of sanctions against #LFC as a club. Has to be 2 or more players from same team for that to be an issue.

From James Pearce

4 game suspension; just when he's started scoring goals. ..they should've suspended him when he was shit

 

[Dave G]

The club issued a statement on Saturday afternoon which said UEFA were "investigating a possible anti-doping rule violation" by the player. Hence the club getting in first.

Some stories saying it's the same fat burner Kolo used.

 

[Mystic]

Why couldn't it have been Lucas?

The ones I've seen have said similar, not same. But think he's fucked either way if the B sample doesnt show anything else.

According to @Iandennisbbc, it's NOT a performance enhancing substance. And it came after the Man Utd Europa League 2nd leg.

He should ask for a refund if what he'd been taking was supposed to be performance enhancing.

 

[Modo]

Ahaaa...that's why he hugged Kolo after he scored.

 

[Nir.Barak]

So we are banning him to make sure there is no retrospective type punishment for us as a club?
Otherwise it's not clear why is he not playing in the league

6 month ban then! What a stoopid idiot.

[doctor_mac]

Alcohol isn't on the banned substance list presumably, but your team might fine you for having it in your system though.

Yeah, but UEFA wouldn't raise it in the aftermath of a drugs test, would they?

That's true

Sakho will ask for B sample to be tested. He must respond by Tuesday.
Game was March 17 not March 10

 

[Molbystwin]

The stupid idiot...

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

UEFA recently banned a Zagreb player for 4 years for using a banned substance.

 

[Rosco]

How do I get this fat burning pill please?

Online

 

[Kay Age El]

Someone should tell our players that you burn a lot of fat from running after a ball week in week out.

This seems utterly ridiculous.

 

[Rosco]

Toure was banned for taking water pills, bought his wife (illegally). They're commonly used as a masking agent to get rid of banned substances from your system.

It'll be interesting to see what Sakho was taking.

 

[FoxForceFive]

I hope you're not suggesting any footballer takes PED's.
It's well known that football & crown green bowls are the only sports where no one takes performance enhancers.

 

[Skullflower]

god we're sinking fast after the Dortmund euphoria.

LOL.

UEFA recently banned a Zagreb player for 4 years for using a banned substance.

And UEFA seem pretty content with throwing the book at us of late.

 

[Gary25]

Can't fucking believe this!!

Meanwhile, here's how Spurs pre-empts these stupid fat-burning pill issues:

Tottenham squad banned from PFA dinner

[Squiggles]

He'll surely be sold in the summer now. We'll miss him when he's at his best, but at his worst he's no loss at all.

What a moron.

 

[Lippy]

god we're sinking fast after the Dortmund euphoria.

Yeh the Derby game was a right downer

 

[Nir.Barak]

It's a bit of a shame as we need him for Europa but on the whole this is a good thing as we will most likely get rid.

 

[Rosco]

LOL.

The in-depth findings into Touré's disciplinary case for being found with bendroflumethiazide in his system claims three different doctors had seen him as part of the case.

Its a prescription only substance. She had no prescription.
