Sakho: They call me 'Killer' at Liverpool

Mamadou Sakho is delighted with his move to Liverpool.

The French defender is trying to settle down on Merseyside after moving from Paris St German for £15million.

"I just bought a house in the suburbs of Liverpool, not far from Steven Gerrard's home," he told Le Parisien.

"When it comes to driving, I've found myself on the right once or twice! But I'm going to get a driver. It will be easier. As for the football, I am not experienced (in English football) in the same way (as in France).

"I am learning and I listen to the instructions of the coach. It's funny, he (Brendan Rodgers) calls me Killer! On the training ground, I try to adapt myself to my team-mates.

"And it's getting better and better as I learn the language because I need to communicate. I take English classes."
