3) Mamadou Sakho is easily our best central defender right now, and it was an error of Brendan Rodgers to consider him otherwise early on this season…
The Frenchman’s our best defender, and he proves it most times he steps on the field. He’s ungainly, but his passes find their targets, he’s unbelievable in the air, and he’s far less of a positional liability than Martin Skrtel and the currently injured Dejan Lovren. He should walk into our side right now, and the fact he was replaced by the error-prone Croatian at the start of the campaign was a mistake. Let’s hope Rodgers can see that.
