Mo Salah

[Pagnell]

Stop fighting

No. This place needs more fighting, it's become boring.

Salah's fucking shit, mate.

 

[Pagnell]

So is David de Gea.

 

[epic73]

Off-topic, but if Salah gets injured/suspended can we rename this thread No Salah?

 

[Stevencc]

So is David de Gea.

Di Caprio to Nicholson in a second and a half.

Spooky.

 

[SALTIRE]

Salah's fucking shit, mate.

You're a disgrace.

 

[Bilo]

You were being serious? I mean, fair enough if you rate Mane higher but there's not a lot in it either way. Mane has 6 pl goals this season, Martial has 9. Both players need to add more consistency to their game if they want to reach the next level. IMO Martial has a higher ceiling of potential (and being 3 years younger, more time to develop).

To claim Mane is "streets ahead" makes you look like one of those deluded Liverpool fans people always laugh at. Since 2006 all you've won is one League Cup, you'd think you lot would be a bit more grounded these days.

Martial's numbers are much (maybe even SIGNIFICANTLY) better than I thought to be fair. He just looks so bang average whenever I watch him.

 

[SALTIRE]

Thats because he is bang average.

 

[Lionel Messi]

If Liverpool could take two current players from Manchester United, I think they would steal De Gea and Matic.

 

[Stevencc]

I'd take Keita and Mane from Liverpool.

De Gea
Valencia--Bailly--Jones--Shaw
Matic
Keita-------------Pogba
Mane-----------------------Sanchez
Lukaku​

Mané over Salah ok mate

Mané over Salah ok mate

We wouldn't create the million chances a game Salah needs to score so many, he wouldn't find himself in anywhere near as many dangerous positions as he does with Liverpool. Mane would suit us better.

I can't decide if this makes sense or if it's utterly absurd.

 

[Pagnell]

If the claim that Salah wouldn't make it into a combined Liverpool/United team had been made by anyone else I'd have laughed so long and hard I'd have died. As it's Steven, I'll just laugh a little bit. Then point and laugh. A lot.

 

[epic73]

I didn't know Pagnell was capable of laughter. Next thing you know he'll be having feelings.

 

[Pagnell]

You could take the chances Salah gets and divide them by 10. He'd still score more than Lukaku. And offer more in general play.

 

[Stevencc]

Well, the caveat was that I could select two Liverpool players to go into the United side.

I'd pick Keita as the final piece in our midfield three and Mane as the pacey, direct and creative right winger that we desperately need seeing as Jose won't play Sanchez there.

 

[epic73]

Is Keita more attacking or defensive?

 

[Stevencc]

He's both.

Matic would be the holding guy with Keita and Pogba pitching in with both sides of the game.

 

[epic73]

Another possibility would be Keita and Matic holding, with Pogba more free to roam.

Keita is like Iniesta with less vision and more work rate. He's significantly more offensive than defensive, his work rate deceives a bit.

I wish Dessie was here so he could say that I said that Keita is better than prime Iniesta.

 

[SALTIRE]

23 goals, 8 assists. Involved in more goals than any other player.

 

[Pagnell]

And a new record for left footed goals in a single season. A bit tenuous that one though.

 

[JimJams]

At this rate Barca might not be able to afford him!

 

[Benji]

We wouldn't create the million chances a game Salah needs to score so many, he wouldn't find himself in anywhere near as many dangerous positions as he does with Liverpool. Mane would suit us better.

I think it's desperately sad that even in his wildest fantasies, Steven can't imagine Man Utd playing free-flowing football any more. Be strong, Mourinho won't be there forever.

 

[Stevencc]

Harry Kane is now on pace for 32 (and a half) goals this Premier League season. Mo Salah is on pace for 31. The Premier League record in a 38-match season is 31.

Lol Salah, you are shit, friend.

 

[JimJams]

He's not your friend, guy!

 

[Lionel Messi]

I'd take Keita and Mane from Liverpool.

Salah is better than all 11 players you have presented
