Mo Salah 2025/26 Season

I think it's quite telling in that clip that Slot said "Florian has managed to find Salah many times". Not since Coutinho have we had a "creator" in midfield. Our central midfielders have always been more of a destroyer role under Klopp and the creation was left to the wings, eg a False 9 Firmino, Salah, Diaz or Trent with his long balls. I think it is promising we finally have someone who could find the space and break the lines in the final 3rd and tread balls through although he hadn't completely found his groove yet. This might be truly Slot ball and I feel it will add a new dimension to our play. We saw flashes of the Wirtz / Isak combination and it will be spectacular when they start getting into it.

Shaq
 
didn't make him any less of a creator
Except he wasn't a very good one for Liverpool.
He had the occasional good highlights reel which failed to show all the poor stuff he did in a game but mostly he contributed little
and doesn't deserve the reverence that he gets from some. He is like a previous incarnation of Chiesa,
Some people cite the semi final second leg against Barca as if he was the hero of the night. They rightly remember his peach of a cross for Gini to head the equalizer but forget that he was shit for the rest of the game.
That encapsulates for me his time at Liverpool and I say that as someone who was originally cautious about his preceding reputation but was won over by his attitude while at Liverpool.
A decent player but not Liverpool standard by the time he got here.
