Mamadou Sakho

I disagree about his heading ability. Whilst he wins the majority of headers, he doesn't clear the ball properly. It's almost like he has a 50p head

Haha...

Thats exactly how I used to describe Traore.

Lets hope that that he sorts it out (perhaps a sanding machine), and that his feet are fully under contol... Especially at the price we paid. In fact its slightly distressing that a comparion, no matter how slight, can be made.

Traore... he really was the worst player ever.

You've clearly forgotten Paul Stewart, Torben Piechnik, Bjorn Tor Kvarme, Julian Dicks, Nicky Tanner..............


At least Djimi has a champions league medal!

I'm not sure you can put Torben in amongst that lot. Bad as they were, he was clearly not in their class.

And a League and FA Cup medal apparently. To think, the only team to comeback from 3 goals and a man down in the Champions League final.

No, I stand by Djimi Traore. Possibly one of the worst players I have seen anywhere. I think the only good thing he ever did for us was nearly decapitating Pennant when playing for Charlton.

Istvan Kozma, may have been up there, did not really get a good look at him. Ditto Mark Kennedy. Michael Thomas was another player I hated, completely ****ing useless, apart from the odd wondergoal.

You'd imagine Sakho shouldn't have too much bother getting back in the France first team ahead of Koscielny and Abidal if he settles in our first team.

He certainly has a realistic chance to get into starting lineup again.

Koscielny is too much error prone and Abidal played very little since early 2011 and is already 34 so if Sakho could get some quality minutes this season with us he could easily be the starting CB at WC.

If they qualify

One thing I like a lot about him is that he doesn't just lump the ball up the field, he always looks for a pass, now that might not work all the time against better opposition and could cause undue pressure from time to time but it is refreshing to see how confident he is in his own abilities to play the ball out from the back

Always forward if possible aswell, cuts the first line of pressing out from the opponents and we're on our way attacking. He's boss.

He needs to work on his cushioned header pass

[Fosterbloke]

No love for Sakho? I thought he played very well and some of his tackles were timed very well with maximum force!

[RichC]

Good signing for me, he's settled into the side pretty quickly so far.

So well in fact I struggle to see how Agger is going to get his place back at the moment
