Mohamed SALAH: 2024/25

I always wanted to see the late, great Sinisa Mihajlovic in red, purely for the free kicks.

I think Mo is telling the truth here. We are far apart in contract talks. Nothing new in terms of as it stands its his last season here.
If it is I just hope the club have a player lined up producing what Mo does for the £40-50m it would take to keep him here for 2/3 years.
Same with VVD.

Mo just posting stuff and giggling in his bed and the world, body language experts (both amateur and professionals), journalists and kids (or adult kids) pulling their hairs out trying to figure out what he wanted to say.

:joy:

We don’t know what Salah will produce in the next 2-3 years. If his current level could be extrapolated out, then of course, sign here! But the tricky part of the analysis is to gauge the potential rate of decline over the course of the contract, how much salary we should pay for that, and then decide if it is better to go with a new player. It’s not straightforward.

And on that note, if it is a new player, I very much doubt they will put up the numbers of goals and assists that Salah has amassed. We have to view the attacking unit as a whole, and spread out the responsibility. Mo has been unique from the wing in the numbers he has put up.

Think Walshy was the first one who wasn’t taking the piss with the post…

Maybe it’s just a photo of a rare free kick he got to take.

Glad we missed out on his racism and support for ā€˜ethnic cleansing’ though

Trent should have taken it… just think if he’d put in to make it 3-1, this forum would have dissolved into a pool of cognitive dissonance giving the rest of his performance on the day.

Has Mo ever scored one of those?

I was watching with my lad, and he said Mo is taking it. I said ā€˜Nah, he always stands there pretending to be in a debate with Trent - Everyone know who is taking this.’

Then Mo blasted it. Couldn’t believe it.

Yeah, it was too close for Mo. Especially if he wanted to get it over the wall. Really need to be very technical and not have too much power, dose it. One possibility was to go hard goalkeeper side, do the opposite of the Salah & Trent combo that worked a few times, especially Chelsea away in 19/20.

He hasn’t even come close. He’s never scored a free kick in the PL.

So based on probability that means next time its a sure thing.

This line of thinking has served me well with Joey G.

Thing is how many has he taken.

I think Macallister has taken one and has a better record.

That’s as close as we can get to Slot saying, ā€œSign him up!ā€

What is everyone’s thoughts on the new Mo Salah song out this week; ā€œThe Egyptian Kingā€?

Not going to be everyones cup of tea with it being a UK rap song to be fair like, but I love it.
