That’s aged well.
I was vocal when it was reported he was asking for £350k/week. His agent acted like a cunt which I see as an extension of the player’s attitude. He offered shit sandwiches in terms of performances since feb last year. We had the excuses like he is tired or it’s in his head. Well he had a summer off. Then another six weeks off. Still shit sandwiches being served.
The highest players at a club should be the most influential. That’s why we paid Gerrard the big bucks and nobody moaned. Same for Suarez. De Bruyne is the big dog at city and has been the top earner. It’s probably Haaland now. The big difference is they all influence games. Mo influences nothing.
I’m expecting people to say “Oh it’s the midfield” “He’s not getting space made for him” and “He’s still overplayed”. I’m not buying any of that shit. You want the top money you should be driving this side on the pitch. That’s how it works in the real world. You deliver.
Today he started well and didn’t get involved again till he scored a goal where he was offside in the move! I no longer look at the game and think Salah played well. You don’t notice him for 30 minute spells.
We missed out on £100 million by not cashing in on him. Now he’s on wages nobody else will pay for 5 more years. Another example of how shit we’ve looked at recruitment over the last 3 years.
