It’s also why Diaz is key - the level of work he puts in is excellent

Seen a good number of analysis about Mo moving into the middle more but he really does love the right channel

The type of forward we get in the summer will be key - can see it being a Firmino type - seen rumours of Alvarez who imo would ne a great signing
Alvarez will do for me quality player.
 
Brighton won 😁😁😁💪💪💪
Yep good, and, along with Brentfords win puts some pressure on Bournemouth who now need to win to maintain their place in the fight for European spots...which may have an impact on Villa, and along with Mn City's inexplicable inability to beat Southampton, means that the race of EL/CL goes on for at least another week after this.
 
Sorry are you saying that lots of Liverpool fans don’t rate Salah ?

Goals are very important in the game of football

As are assists and he is also top of that table

So not only is he the best goalscorer in the league this season he is also the top creator of goals

He isn’t getting player of the year just because of his goals ?! He is getting player of the year for his goals and assists that have been key to Liverpool winning the league this season
Are you saying “ there’s nobody in Liverpool that dosnt like him”
 
Ask all the fans down where you live.😂😂😂😂

The ones in Liverpool lots agree with me!

As I said “ he’s got a trophy for his goals”🏆
Sounds like he’s the only one who can win because he scores goals.! So he gets rewarded twice for scoring goals.
It’s his job to provide assists but he’d be nowhere without the rest of the team.

You shouldn’t get Player of the season just for goals imo of course !
Salah is good, no question. But he has been vacant too often in reality, especially the big games such as PSG. Whilst I am glad he has signed a new contract, he needs to stop his 1 man crusade to get the most goals and start to link up a little more. I always felt he was the reason Mane went, and also which Nunez hasn't really produced the goals despite his strength and speed.
I would be expecting him and VVD to start helping the younger players improve next season, and if they dont then sell them.

He’s scored goals that’s true but he gets a trophy for that.🏆

He’s not Player of the season that’s all.!imo

Nunez is just a bad finisher he’s had plenty of chances.!

I’ll be amazed if there are “lots” of Liverpool fans that don’t rate Salah

Not sure about this one man crusade stuff when he is also sitting pretty at the top of the assist chart this season by a fair distance - he links up very well

And Nunez hasn’t produced enough in terms of goals because his finished has been shocking - nothing to do with Salahs ability to link up play

how do you judge “help improve young players” - is that not the job of the coaches
 
That's sly from Mings...you see his eyes have a little glance to where the Bournemouth player is approaching from and he puts his elbow up at head height. Probably not a red but certainly not totally accidental.
 
Think Mings has got away with one there.

Leans into the elbow!
Player goes in for a genuine tackle, catches a player high on ankle, red card.

Player goes to protect ball and throws an elbow into an opponents head, no red as it is deemed accidental.

I don't think it is possible to get a red card for an elbow these days, unless it is some sort of Steven Seagal move off the ball.

I dont think he "throws" the elbow. He just puts it into a position where Scott runs straight into it.

He knows what he’s doing there imo.
Has a look.

He’s protecting himself but you can’t do that.
Bit suprised Var didn’t tell the ref to have a look ( not surprised I mean 😳)
