What's happened to the transfer section of the forum?! Huh.. I never go in there so I've just realized it's missing  Just start a transfer thread in here - you could even call it "the transfer thread"  Can't really see why that needs multiple topics and threads anyway myself, but each to their own

Reds defender on how he feels a duty to give something back to the city through the work of the club's Foundation.
Mamadou Sakho has opened up about the satisfaction he gets from his work with the Liverpool FC Foundation as he insisted: “Now I’m a Scouser and I give everything for the Scouse nation!”
The popular France international defender says the time he dedicates to the club’s official charity has helped him feel part of the local community since his £18million move from Paris Saint-Germain in 2013.
Sakho volunteered to become an ambassador for the Foundation shortly after his arrival and since then he’s acted as a mentor for children at Anfield’s All Saints Primary School.
He visits the youngsters on a regular basis - helping to teach them French as well as taking part in sports and reading sessions. Attendance levels have improved since the link-up and Sakho believes he has a duty to give something back to the city.
“I always promised myself that if I did make it I would try to help children,” he told Liverpool FC’s official matchday programme.
“That’s why I am involved with the Foundation and what they do. Going to the school is very important to me.
“I don’t think it’s asking too much for a footballer to give up some of their free time, but it clearly means a lot to the kids. Seeing them smile is great, it makes me feel good.
“Trying to help others has always been normal for me. I had nothing when I was a kid growing up back in Paris but I always tried to share with others or give them something if they needed it more than me.
“As a footballer you are an example to youngsters because so many of them watch the game, support their team and idolise players. So you have to try to do the right thing for them. We have a role to play in setting an example and we always need to be aware of that. Being involved has been a great way for me to get to know the city and the people.
“When I moved here I wanted to make a real effort to be involved in the community. Doing so helps you to understand the history of the city and the club. I had the same approach when I was in Paris. Now I’m a Scouser and I give everything for the Scouse nation!”
It’s been a rollercoaster season for Sakho so far. He started the campaign on bench duty before being handed the honour of captaining the Reds in their Europa League clash with Bordeaux in his homeland.
A dominant performance led to him retaining his place and he penned a new long-term contract. His impressive form earned him the adulation of the Kop but he was then sidelined by knee ligament damage sustained against Crystal Palace.
Five weeks on he’s back in full training and eyeing a comeback in Sunday’s Premier League trip to Watford. There is a void to fill after Dejan Lovren was ruled out for up to three weeks with a knee injury and Sakho is relishing being part of the Reds’ hectic festive schedule.
“Wearing the armband for the first time meant a lot to me because of the great history of this club and the legendary captains that have been here,” Sakho added.
“But my approach is always the same. Whether I have an armband or not, I always give everything for the team and the club.
“In most countries football stops around Christmas. Here in England it is the opposite.
“I think it’s one of the reasons why the Premier League is so attractive. It’s great for the fans. The day after Christmas dinner they can sit down to watch the games and eat the leftovers. That is very enjoyable, particularly if they see us winning.”

Elated to have him back from injury.

Divock Origi believes his form over the past fortnight proves he is ready to make the grade at Anfield and become a top player for Liverpool.
The Liverpool striker scored his first Premier League goal for the club in the weekend draw with West Brom, barely a week after he smashed a stunning Capital One Cup hat-trick at Southampton.
Belgium international Origi struggled desperately when he first arrived at the club, with fans concerned the massive £10m the Reds splashed out on the then teenager back in 2014 was a waste of cash.
But after being singled out for praise by boss Jurgen Klopp, he has won the Kop around with his impressive form in recent weeks....Full Read: http://www.teamtalk.com/news/confident-origi-ready-to-become-a-top-player-for-liverpool
