Thanjk you.

Fans seem to really hate him just now. What a c*nt
Err...no
He knows he has the fans on his side. Hence the media position and putting pressure on FSG. Fans are already yelling for them to give him a contract. Its only going to get louder, and you watch, if he doesn't he'll make sure everyone knows. He has form in this last time.
On the other side you have Trent and Virg, same situation. Not playing it out in public.
I know you love Mo. But he';s being a little weasely ****house here

We are lucky as a support base as we always seem to be not far away from getting someone we think is as good as it gets.
In more recent times, we had Suarez that was the never going to get better than guy, then we got Salah.
We will have another off the charts attacking player in our near future just as we will get off the charts level players in other positions too.
Think right now we are more spoiled than in recent decades what with having had the likes of Alisson, VVD, Robertson, TAA and Salah all in the first team when at their peaks coupled with guys like Mane, Fabinho etc all being there at the same time.
Think we would have to go back to the 1980s to when we last had a first team so stacked with genuine top level talent.
The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.
I also think rumours of his decline have been vastly over stated (sometimes almost eagerly referenced without any backup) there have been maybe 2 periods where his form was slightly down which is to say he was scoring and assisting at normal levels compared with other wide players in football. This mainly shows how reliant we are on him as a forward.
His career stats scream consistency. Looking just at goals he is on 226 goals in 370 games a goal in every 1.6 games. Assists have been added over the last few years (killing the slightly harsh greedy Salah reputation). He is a phenomena.
The year we won the League he scored 19 League goals. He is way more than halfway to that this season with only 14 games played.
I agree with Goldbridge. It has to be to do with his not playing for a glamorous football nation? Were he Brazilian, Spanish, French or English he’d be regarded far more highly.

There are so many examples of players who are seen as world class but not banged on about in the sense of them being a top commodity. These players are generational talents and almost priceless but don't have that media machine behind them
Lewendowski
Modric
Scholes
Maldini
Lahm
The list is possibly endless. Then there's your MBappe who likes to big himself up. I wonder if that media machine will grind to a halt now that he's at Madrid with only one way to go
