Yo @Iftikhar - You have put this Mo Salah comment in the wrong thread…
I mean you have put it in the right thread… But in doing that, you have put it in the wrong thread, for you and your normal standards.!
In the pub in Kreuzberg watching the game. Salah fucks up. I swear in annoyance. Some supposed Reds fan pipes up, “Yeah, we should have sold him to the Saudis in the summer”.
Not ironic, not in jest, he meant it.
Spent the next ten minutes explaining that we have one of the three best players in the world. One of the three best Liverpool players I have ever seen.
He scored two goals and it won us the points, you telling me he looked good for most of that game?
I’m one of his biggest fans but he looked lethargic, other players who looked better are getting more criticism.
He is a player who can do that though, one bit of skill and he has been superb this season. I don’t think he had a good game and plenty of comments in that in game thread and across social media will tell you that.
As for TNT it’s probably a tough choice as I don’t think there was a stand out other than someone who provided the finish, the game had a lot of average to decent performances. I felt Diaz looked the mostly likely to do something before the pen.
It’s weird, in general play Mo has been poor for most of the season but then delivers with assists and goals.
I reckon his pass completion and dribble stats would be low, but then his assists and goals are quite the opposite, he is just relentless and never lets his head drop.
