i think this post, while technically true, is typical internet debate…
we know what he meant, everyone knows what he meant, granted he didnt litterally document the inclusion of wages…but…seriously…do we need him to dig that deep…

FIFA and UEFA are really weird organisations in the players nominations Liverpool has been totally disregarded and disrespected what has our club done to upset them this badly. No Salah no VVD no Konate but you look at the list of nominees and you wonder why some of them are on it?

I think a big issue is caring about such things. I think it ought to be amply clear that so many of these aren’t just popularity contests but also very much a social media buzz bias.

Not kowtowed to them enough.
Total subservience is rewarded.

Given that it’s FIFA and UEFA, I’m surprised you didn’t talk about greasing the right pockets instead.

FIFA and UEFA shortlist? I don’t even know what awards we are talking about!
I am old school with all that. Not quite Ronny Moran, “There’s a box full of medals for winning the league. Take one if you think you deserve it,” but closer to his style than all the emphasis I see on individual awards in the modern game.
I get it, the celebrity, the money, the need to have superstars and so on. I know I am swimming against the stream, but I do long for something different.
Essentially my position is that individual awards in a team game are largely meaningless. And ideally, anyone who wins an individual award will downplay their own contribution and stress how the team he played for was good.

Paul Merson on Mo Salah: “Personally, I wouldn’t offer him a new contract. I’m sorry, but I wouldn’t do it. He is 32 and will turn 33 by the end of the season.”
“You simply get older; everyone ages. In the case of Harry Kane, it’s different. He will play until 36 or 37. He recovers well, he sees the pass, he knows how to play.”
CUNT!!!

He sees the pass.
Maybe he sees the pass, ignores the pass, shoots.
Mo Salah can do things with a football Harry Kane couldn’t dream of.

Ah Mr Intelligence supreme himself, Paul Merson.
The same person that last week said he couldn’t fathom why we went so strong midweek and also said “this was a game that meant nothing to Madrid” despite them being 24th in the table.
Only reason he has a seat at the Sky Studio is out of empathy for his previous gambling addiction…in fact the whole panel is brimmed with misfits.

For context in how much value these awards should have - Lionel Messi is a finalist, Salah wasn’t nominated.

If we’d be talking about an English player the likes of Merson would have their tongues deep in Mo’s anus.
