Someones gonna need to start the ex player thread soon
Think we have to wait until the transfer window officially opens.
“I’m with a very, very competitive team now”
He has to say that to get onside of the Bayern fans and his new employer. All footballers do this when they change jobs.
I don’t know what Bayern fans are like, question for The German residents, are they very demanding like The Real Madrid fans?
I do respect them for the single fact, when they had that huge protest banner at Champions League matches against the extortionate prices of tickets and how greedy some corporate people are, supporting ,Twenty is Plenty’. They support the fans welfare in my view. Well, it comes across to me in this way.
Nothing he can really say or do that’ll make me change my feelings of him, you can’t hate on a guy like Sadio.
Liverpool legend as of today, tomorrow, next week and end of time, nothing more really to be said other than he will remain a legend of this club…highly thought of by everyone associated with the club.
Him Salah Virg Trent Robbo Fab Ali, these guys aren’t obliged to finish their careers here…they’ve already left their mark and are free to move on whenever they wish. (if they indeed wish to)
Christ. He said Bayern are a competitive team.
They are. That’s not slagging us off.
We’ve got stop being so sensitive.
So pretty much like any player in the history of football?
Bayern is a nasty, greedy, condescending, arrogant club and their fans reflect that. There is nothing good to be said about them.
I thought you lot all hated RB Leipzig
I’m afraid I’ll always be overly sensitive when it comes to losing one of our best and most loved players
He was an integral and vital part of both our growth, our evolution as a team, the success that followed and he formed part of one of the most devastating front three’s ever to play in this league and one of the best in world football and for that he will always have my love, respect and gratitude but I personally don’t see any need to deify him.
He said as soon as he heard about their interest he was excited and saw himself there. Now, I may be a little cynical but I doubt he suddenly heard that after the Champions League Final and just only then decided to do a u-turn on his special news.
He knew the score, he knew what he was likely going to do and played a teaser with the fans anyway. I’m not all gutted and misty eyed like so many seem to be and I’m not seething about him leaving either but he has done a fair bit to bamboozle the fans with his comments in the lead up to this transfer and that can’t be denied so “good, old Sadio” doesn’t quite fly for me.
Quoted for truth. @Bekloppt speaks for all of us German constituency. Bayern level of arrogance rivals any top club in the world. And I’ve always been fascinated by how complicit every club in BL is, Bayern’s collective doormat.
However, all the club shit aside, I am a massive fan of Leon Goretzka and Jamal Musiala. Not thrilled such nice boys ply their trade at Bayern but they are pure class.
It is sad but as John Barnes once said …the club will always be here to support, the players are just passing through.
So, who was he with for the last six years? You’d think he’d been playing for a club like Everton, with a quote like that.
Anyway, he’s gone. Thanks for the memories Sadio, but it’s your loss. You should’ve taken a look at the careers of other players who leave Anfield, it’s all downhill from now on. And to walk out on Klopp as well?? You must be mad!
I think Sadio will buck that trend.
What do you want him to say?
‘I’ve joined an obviously worse team to double my salary. Hope you all love me anyway’?
Some strange takes here. He gave everything for the shirt and left us with wonderful memories. He has every right to move on. We can be sad for a bit, then move on also.
I’m not really fussed, so long as if he plays well against us we still win.
Nah, hope he’s shite against us and gets subbed off at half-time
So long as we win, I really don’t mind.
Now that’s just stupid
