Sakho fails drug test - Update: Case dropped by UEFA

I take a nap before the game and wake up to this. Bloody hell.

If he's guilty, he's an idiot. If he's suspended, get it imposed ASAP and he's back before the new year.

Hope it's some confusion but I can't see how, unfortunately.

Heard the B sample is back, he's not only guilty, he's pregnant.

I just spat out my coffee reading this, too funny

there's an old story from south America where supposedly a team got other people to supply urine tests and one came back pregnant (and yes it was a male team)

I wonder if Jan Molby knew about this drug?

(Sorry Jan)

 

Apparently a lot of them contain a stimulant. Depends which drug he has taken I suppose.   

Yep.

Stupid as it sounds but fat burners and anti-ageing supplements are becoming very common in sport.

Both are easy to get a hold of, rarely considered to be a banned substance and both can have stimulants in them which aid either muscle boosting, muscle recovery or weight loss.

Ridiculous you'd need to take them at 26 and in decent shape. Nothing a professional athlete's fitness regime couldn't fix if he felt like he needed to trim down.

No big deal as long as LFC face no sanctions. We've got Kolo, Skrtel, Caulker and Ilori as alternatives. Lucas can fit in too.

It's all a load of crap. I read of a Shampoo once that it contained Caffeine so there was a disclaimer for athletes, as if athletes can't drink coffee? There seems to be a big confusion of what athletes can and can't have.

They can be investigated if they have high levels of caffeine in their system, depending on the sport or the organising body of the sport.

Lots of products have labels on them even if it contains 0.01% of a certain substance in it.

it's nuts. I drink that much tea I would not get past the caffeine checks. He is not suspended, I would just play him.

F**k sake.

Reading on another site that Kolo's 6 months was an F.A. charge. Sakho has been charged by UEFA and the ban is likely to be two years.

Hopefully bollocks!

Sounds like it is bollocks.

Does UEFA have the power to ban him from domestic competition aswell?

Not good news at all, but let's just hang on and see what the result of the B test is,
It could be something totally innocent like a nasal spray or migraine pill,

Some of you lot are holding the hangmans noose without knowing the actual facts,

Ask yourself this, your playing regularly in a exciting side, with possible Euro tin on the horizon, playing for a top boss who believes in you,....
...why then take a performance enhanced drug, or suck on a doobie or worse snort a white line,
Very much doubt it, but let's just wait and see eh!

can't remember a "B"sample ever being different. the drug banned list is huge down to stuff that you would never imagine could be performance enhancing but buried away with in simple potions are drugs considered to be performance enhancers. Rumours of a dietary pill seems bizzare and unnecessary but lets just see how this pans out.

Well considering someone sanctioned a £33mill move for Benteke, he's not the only one who should in question over drugs.

Could Skrtel and Mignolet not get banned for failing a drugs test instead - they both seemed baked and pissed whenever they play.

Tony Barrett: Liverpool have clarified that Sakho has not been suspended but he will not be selected while the process is ongoing.

He's not suspended ? But won't be selected ! I presume the club are following EUFA or whoever's rules on this. And it's not us that have decided to 'not select' him of our own accord.
F***ing bad timing. Sakho and Lovren were settling into a really good groove. Origi and now Sakho, jayzus bleedin wept

Well fu ck me! This is just a shocker! No professional footballer should ever be in this position. He's going to get a 12 month ban? They come down hard on this sh it.

Won't be 12 months, Kolo did get a 6 month ban for something similar while at City.

Drugs would make his performances understandable oh hang on they talk about "performance enhancing drugs" that's not our big Ben is it nobody could ever accuse him of having his performance enhanced mores the pity

There's plenty of Footballers out there doing it and with the sanction of their clubs . Look at Leicester with there  Chinese owners , those fuckers have the pick of PED's  that can't be detected . How can Leicester go from relegation fodder to champions elect in one season and Vardy , where the F**k was he all along until this season .
