      My guess would be replacing Sakho on the cheap!

      Typical FSG they never learn!

      Anybody yet figured out why we bought Klavan.

      I find it more odd given the fact that, yes he had a tough couple of games in January, but put a MOTM performance at Goodison Park and generally looked far more natural and ready than he is given credit for.

      With Lucas - I suppose it's over. If he can't do the position he was originally bought for (defensive midfield) and your still accommodating him in the team in other positions then it's screamingly obvious that his time is up.

      I think i agree. I mean his signing was wrong on quite a few levels, but the bloke is here now, and he is a centre back.

      Surely he has got to be better than poor old Lucas. I felt sorry for him after about half an hour. Not particularly his fault that he is struggling at CB considering he has very few tools to his game that would make you want to play him there.

      Klavan is here, he surely has to now use him when the time comes.

      Agreed.  Or Gomez.  Unless there's other reasons that neither played, although Klavan was on the bench.   
      I thought he'd played well in some games, as Frankly pointed out.  Lucas has had the odd reasonable performance at CB but never looks any use against pace, and that's all you're going to get v. Leicester.  Bonkers decision by JK, and symptomatic of what I feel is his weakness - unwillingness to adapt for different tactical challenges.

      I like him. Bring Sakho back and we have four good centre backs. The needs of the squad are much more urgent elsewhere.

      I'm hoping Klopp can iron out his differences with Sakho, by which I mean Sakho bucks his ideas up ;)

      Burnley targetted him yesterday but he stood up to the task well.

      I feel because of his lack of stature he does give the opposition something to go at.

      I like him. He plays football like I would have if I was a million per cent better than I was. Honest, gets stuck in, not afraid of kicking someone now and then. Him and Milner are my type of characters.

      I like him too. Not a bad replacement at all IMHO. Kop's a bit of flack but I think he's more assured than your mate Lovren, Mick.  ;D

      Has played well at times for us, but yesterday was a very poor game.

      Too up and down for me.

      He'll have a couple of great games but you just know a shocker is around the corner.

      He had totally no idea where that ball was when they got that equaliser.

      Hopefully next year we only see him in the early rounds of the Cup games, if he is still here.

      His campaign started off well but he's since been found out and has been taken advantage of on numerous occasions.

      Superb in the odd games here and there, no more so than the Merseyside derby at Goodison just before Christmas. But unfortunately, if your going to be playing him more than the odd occasion his status as a £3 million worth 3/4th choice centre back will be found out. For that fact it's a real shame you can't rely on someone like Lovren (who's got his own question marks hanging over him) a lot more.
