That fall against Barca in the first leg of the semi was a really nasty looking one. That was the one he rushed back from for Guinea and then came back for pre-season injured and never really got going again after that.

Who on here said they bet once he joined his new club they bet he would be injury free. 
At this point we could have a drinking game based on the frequency of his injuries
I think they meant weād (LFC) be injury free
Youād soon end up leglessā¦ quite apt.
Werder Bremen are reportedly fuming with how the signing of Naby Keita has panned out, with the former Liverpool player yet to play for his new club,
According to Bild, the Bundesliga side are not pleased with Keitaās fitness, with the midfielder picking up an injury in pre-season that has kept the 28-year-old out on the sideline for the entire campaign.

I feel for him, because he obviously had talent and ability, but his body just isnāt up to the challenge of top level professional sports.

Heās also been the victim of being by far and away the best player on his national team. This means he plays every minute of every international match (when anywhere near fit) and, given the standard of some of the pitches, he invariably returns from international duty in a worse state than he was in when he left.

Hard to believe that heās a lazy cunt who didnāt want to play - he wouldnāt have made it as far as he did in his career (playing in the Bundesliga and convincing many clubs he was going to be great) before the injuries took their toll.
I put it down to bad luck.

When he was fit and available. He did do the hard work. Not his fault that he was simply made of glass. The same as Ox. Liverpool would have done a lot better if one of the two at any point of time was match fit and ready for a sustained period.

I donāt believe in coincidences. He put in the work until his got his big money payday. Then he checked out. Think Keita was on Ā£120k/week? Whatās that, 30mil over 5 years? set for life.
Now heās doing the same thing in Germany as he was at LFC. collecting a paycheque on reputation.
I forsee a bit shift in contracts being handed out in the near future, being heavily performance based. Theyāll get a base salary, with increases based on appearances and team success.

I think his salary in Germany is pretty low. Indicative of the fact that no other club went for him. 30k a week. Not a bad deal for a CL winner / PL winner. Itās not like heās doing a Pogba / Hazard / Coutinho style of daylight robbery.
thatās still 1.5mil/year. not a ālowā salary.
Compared to what he was earning in Liverpool , which is 120k a week , Thatās a low salary.
And relatively still risk free still for werder. They can easily look to transfer him for a couple of million to another club if he does seem to show signs of recovery from his injury.
itās actually ā¬48k/week, or 2.5mil/year
Heās joint-highest paid player on their squad. not winning himself any favors over there.
