    Funny how things work out...

    Sahin originally played for Borussia Dortmund, made a big money move to Real Madrid, however he only managed to play 4 matches for them and looks set to leave pretty much.
    During this time however he made a loan move to Liverpool after weeks of speculation of his supposed actual transfer to Arsenal, his debut with Liverpool was vs Arsenal whom they lost 2-0 (again).
    Since then he has now found himself back at Dortmund on loan since he is still on the books at Madrid, playing against the team he could've signed for, again on the losing side.... just need it to finish 2-0 and it'll be full circle.

    Useless information I know...
