Probably every elite player has done similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a miscommunication between two players that have played with each other for a long time and their brand new teammate. In a corner that came shortly after, the cameras actually catch a moment where Gini, Salah, and Jota seem to be having a laugh at what just happened. But sure, let's make it into something bigger than it is. Salah's clearly such a selfish bastard that would never want Jota to score - just ignore him creating that great chance for Jota literally moments before Incredible bit of play by Salah for that opportunity where Jota hit the side netting. He's been unplayable at times in the opening games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Gonzo 8,190 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Another cool stat from the game was how good our midfielders' passing was over 90 minutes. Our starting midfielders - Keita, Fabinho, Gini - between the 3 of them only misplaced 7 passes out of 169 combined passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Artful Dodger 1,831 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Salah has form for greediness I think that’s why people are jumping on this. Ultimately doesn’t matter too much as he provides so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not making it bigger than it is though, my response was that cos I can’t think of another high profile player making a mistake like that. Overreaction yeah, who gives a shit I’m sure Salah apologised, but it’s still gunna be discussed because I can’t think of anyone else doing that. Only one that comes to mind is Ronaldo early in his Real Madrid days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one that comes to mind is Ronaldo early in his Real Madrid days I'll always prefer a selfish player like Salah or Mane (who is, by far and away, our most selfish attacker but doesn't get called out on it because one time he got upset Salah took a shot ), or a Cristiano Ronaldo, to a selfish player like Mario Balotelli. Salah and Mane score goals, Salah's actually one of the better creators playing in attack in Europe as well. Balotelli's a selfish cunt who's let his selfishness define him even though he doesn't really have the talent to back it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMike 3,009 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 It was just a miscommunication I think. I also think Salah was in a better position to take the chance on as he was running onto the pass. Of course when people like Gary Neville start using the word 'selfish' people will make it something it isn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
