It still p*sses me off that Liverpool are asking for 30 mil for him, especially when he isn't likely to play under Klopp Marseille could well be saying the same about us re. Mandanda

After the Benteke episode I would not bother trying to deal with Liverpool. What's wrong with that? It sounds an excellent idea to me as we aren't in a Moroccan marketplace

Probably just biding our time. SP will know no club will pay 30m for him. Waiting for the price to come down, Klopp will not want to keep him in the squad. I'm still confident. The problem with that is that if we take it right down to the wire and Liverpool don't budge all of the better alternatives might have been snapped up by other clubs. People are saying that there are cheaper alternatives like Veltman and Tete but I wouldn't mind betting that the majority of HOLers who are claiming that had never even heard of either of them three weeks ago

I personally believe that FDB knows the Dutch league market. More than all of us on this forum. Regarding Tete even if he's a flop 3m is hardly breaking the bank, in this inflated market which 20m get you Nathan Akč.

I'm not disputing that but was merely pointing out that after plenty of media speculation we now have HOLers claiming that if we don't sign Sakho it won't be the end of the world as we can buy X and Y from the Ajax at one third of the price without any knowledge of the players at all. Surely any speculation or comments on this forum should be based on informed opinion and not media waffle and blind faith in FDB otherwise what's the point of the forum

Ideally we would get Sakho back on a season long loan. Much rather take proven quality in this case.

Sahko is not coming unless there is a dramatic change from Liverpool. They want 30m or very close to and I think a team will pay it but it's not going to be us.

Surely any speculation or comments on this forum should be based on informed opinion and not media waffle and blind faith in FDB otherwise what's the point of the forum I sometimes ask myself that question... Its not putting blind faith in FdB, necessarily. Sakho looks like a sure bet - but what if he gets a long-term injury? He's not exactly made of steel, is he? If you accept we need to save money for much-needed improvements to our infrastructure then I would argue that £30m for Sakho appears too much when there are lesser-known players from other leagues who could prove better value for money. We all know the various holes in the squad that need filling. We've more chance of achieving that if we spend £5m or £10m on two right-back defenders - who can cover central. And lets remember one thing - our defensive mindset was shot to pieces for various reasons last season. Once Pape got injured it undid the whole defensive line. I don't believe Dann has lost it permanently. With the right pre-season training will Sakho's undoubted aura be so essential?

Give the scousers a 10m season long loan fee with the option to buy and with the loan fee deducted from the price. We've somehow got to get him

Palace fans seem to think he's indebted to the club. Yes he was a superb player. The best I seen in the 20 years , I've been watching but no one bigger than the club. Also in that short period of time, we didn't see his weak spots. I'd love Sakho back but it's time to move on and stop worrying about Sakho all summer.
