Mo Salah

[Paul12]

Sounds like increasingly entrenched positions. Liverpool must not pay more than they can afford, but Salah's agent won't want to be seen as 'losing' the battle against Liverpool. If that article is true and Mo really loves being with us, maybe there is some gesture we could make that would enable all parties to 'claim victory' even though the currecnt offer is not in substance improved.

Maybe we should offer, on top of our existing offer, to put £5m a year for the length of his next contract into a football school in Eqypt that we name after him. That ought to nuance our offer in an interesting way.

I still think he will sign.

This is negotiation being played out loosely in public. The only thing that has changed since last week is his agent/lawyer posting 7 laughing emojis on Twitter FFS. We haven't had any other info than that and it has lead to absolute panic stations.

The difference with this and Gini is that Gini was not banging in 20 goals a season. Goals are the3 most precious commodity in football and we have a guy that scores and loves scoring them. Salah has underpinned the single most succesfull period in the last 30 years of the club. He is a rational guy settled in a team literally designed around him. I can only see an agreement being reached.

As every my job round here is to inject a bit of positivity

I think he'll sign too. Perhaps I'm being totally naive, but I just don't believe that it's purely about money.

I just can't decide if a big trophy haul will work in our favour this year (ala Gerrard), or work against us as he'll have done the lot and might want a new challenge.

Everton must have been an option for you - always a lot of Scots there also…… imagine

I might not be an Everton supporter but I understand the suffering.

Thankfully the main Scots were reds when I was a lad. They only had Graeme Sharp.

Mohamed Salah's agent tweeted a string of laughing emojis after Jurgen Klopp's recent comments on Liverpool's contract situation with the Egypt forward, but the Reds' boss was wary with his response today.

"I'm not on Twitter, so that's another good reason for that," he said.

"You got me in the trap and I created headlines. It's all fine. I don't know about any kind of reaction but I am not concerned. It is how it should be. The decisive parties are in contact."

[wiw]

"I'm not on Twitter, so that's another good reason for that,"

"Say he's a bellend without saying he's a bellend.."

Too right they are I moved away for ten years that seemed to help. Injecting positivity into the Scottish psyche is a calling.

Well, I've just joined the Scottish society here in Malaysia - they are a happy bunch of lads! I think it's the sun and cheap food

Will you be tossing your caber at the Kuala Lumpur Highland games this year then?

If this is not euphemism and code I will be bitterly disappointed.

It's really not

One of the activities at the Highland Games here in September- had to look it up

If the club have literally offered him as much as they can without destroying the salary structure completely, then I'm fine with Mo and his ****** agent just choosing what they want to do. If he goes, he goes and he will never be as good elsewhere as he is here - he can also kiss goodbye to the statue that Klopp also warned Coutinho about.

We have the next generation coming up on the rails and fast - Jota, Diaz... both incredibly talented and with the potential to become long-serving superstars. No player can ever be replaced like for like (in the main) but different players bring different skills and playing styles. And I'm 100% fine with that as the team evolves. We may bring in a Bellingham and another young forward like Raphina or Bowen to complete the line-up of succession...

I'll be far more worried when Klopp eventually goes... I have no idea how I will cope on that day...

I will have completed my mastery of all things footy via my extensive and instensive Fifa training. Mastered it from Fifa98 right up to Fifa22 so I reckon I probably know as much about building a team now as Frank Lampard.

So no worries when Klopp goes.

Kloppo out, Jaco in.

Seemless stuff and just think how fantastic the next guy is going to seem after my three week stint in charge.

I still wager you'll do better than Hodgson.
