Mamadou Sakho

[captainfog]

Nobody knows what happened, what's going on in his head or what he's been advised. People shouldn't be so quick to judge.

sakho's playing his best football for the club and gets positively tested for performances enhancing substances. might be a coincidence and a nothing story. might just as well be the reason for the good form he's in.

That hasn't been determined yet.
We'll see what the investigation says but reports so far are suggesting it's a fat burner,
which while it may contain a banned substance is in no way a performance enhancer.

Same could be said for Lovren, Origi and a bunch of other players at the club.

Yes, but the others haven't been caught taking banned substances. Rightly or wrongly, all his good performances will be put down to performance enhancing drugs, he'll be labelled a cheat, which is a shame really because he seems like a top bloke.

This didn't happen to Kolo did it?

It all depends on the details of what he's done and whether there are any extenuating circumstances. As others have said above, it's too early to tell.

I'd love to know what drugs improve your passing, game intelligence and positional sense.

Why won't it let me use all caps?

[Scaramanga]

I've always been curious why players like Suarez and Vardy constantly have wrist bandages on - is this to protect an intravenous entry point? Blood thinning or regular doses of something maybe?

You can't tell me that Suarez has had a bad wrist for 5 years?!

Vardy=Broken Wrist
Suarez=Luis Suárez uses a wristband in every match, now blue with Barça. He always kisses it before entering the field. In an interview at Barça's magainze, the striker answered more questions about this Suárez wristband mistery.

The Uruguayan confessed that he had "three injuries on his fingers with already some negative effects." So that's why he is wearing a wristband. The number 9 explained that "afterwards I put some color ribbon. The red is against envy, the green was a present of my wife Sofia and you have to ask three wishes. "Two of them were made true," admitted the player.

With the fingers' injury and the wishes bracelets, he decided to "hide them with a wristband. It gave me luck so I kept playing with it." Let's hope that the three wish left is made true and that he has a lucky era at Barça. The big question is: which were Suárez's desire? Which ones were made true?

Mamadou Sakho has decided not to challenge the results of his failed drugs test. Will now face a lengthy ban #LFC

So he's not having the "B" sample tested - obviously hoping to argue it was an innocent mistake, and get extra time off the sentence for admitting it at the earliest possible opportunity.
