Dejan Lovren

[Paulie Dangerously]

After playing well for a period he is returning to his LOLvren roots recently.  What better time to give him a brand new contract

[The Golden Eel]

Reading that from Klopp is the first time ive had doubts about the man. It's insulting to the fans. 100k a week for being poo. I'll do it for a grand a week

 

That's been my main worry about Klopp - seemingly rating players who aren't good enough

[Jairzinho]

£5m a year. What a tremendous use of our resources.

[joe_fishfish]

I fucking hate this twat so much. Cannot understand this decision at all, the guy has cost us so many points and last weekend was just another example. Absolutely​ never good enough for any team with Champions League ambitions.

 

I love Klopp but he is far too loyal to shit players.

yeah, that and not buying replacements

[Dave D]

New contract for Lovren? 

 

Oh crap.

Been a while since I really personally disliked one of our players but I agree, Lovren comes pretty close to tripping that particular trigger.

 

Every time he has a half-decent game he's off to give interviews about how he's "showing his quality" and "proving himself," but then 3 games later he's back to giving away goals while shouting at everyone around him for not doing his job.  Really a dislikeable character.

 

Contrast to Lucas, who is another perfect example of the mediocrity in parts of our squad.  The Brazilian is at least very likeable, keeps his mouth shut and does his best (even if it's not quite good enough).  I would be a lot happier with Lovren if he pursued this strategy instead of pretending he's Beckenbauer in disguise who's always "just had a couple of off games recently."

He should get the equivalent of the Ballon d'Or for that particular disguise.

I don't think that these contracts being thrown about are "protecting value" anymore.  I think they're because we're going to be stuck with these pansy, shit bird players because we're not going to replace them with quality

[KMD7]

Cunt contract

I totally disagree. Klopp rates him.

[Baltar]

Absurd. Can Liverpool give me a contract? I'm pretty shite but reckon I'd be worth a few hundred quid a week based on Loveren's performances.

[Paulie Dangerously]

I totally disagree. Klopp rates him.

 

He's fucking mad then. 

[Funkasy]

Look like we again attracted a manager that is hopeless with transfers, rewarding shithouses with new contracts, no one can say that Rodgers is at fault for our poor squad when hes throwing new contracts to all the shit. But he showed strong charcter with Sakho some will say. Shit stains all over the club, top to bottom.

[stringvest]

I don't share the antipathy towards Lovren. I think our CBs are made to look worse than they are by the paucity of protection they're offered. That said, Lovren had a mare last time out

Congratulations on the league win, Brendan.

Good one Rojo.

I agree that it's more of a system failure than down to the individuals. Should be great fun on here when we break the bank for Van Dijk and still concede soft goals in the autumn.

 

That said, Lovren had cut out a lot of the silly personal errors. Shame that he's fallen back in recent times.

[Funkasy]

Im not sure how you implement a system where a single longball can make our whole backline run around like headless chickens, or i dont think it has anything to do with having two players shielding infront of them.

They often don't seem to know what they're doing in any pressure situation, so the manager needs to simplify the system or the instructions.

[johnsusername]

Mediocre and injury prone. He earned it.

[3 Stacks]

New 100k a week contract

 

Hahaha. Fuck sake.

[s(k)aturation]

Absolutely unbelievable.

 

Football really is fucked.

[dickie mint]

New contract for this load of shite will mean no big fee for a new top CB,kidding the bollocks off everyone,hope Klopp isn't jumping on the Rodgers bandwagon but it's starting to look that way,please don't don't don't do it.

This is true, but even so, Lovren has shown nothing throughout his career to justify this kind of faith. He's had more bad seasons than good.
