Matchday 11

[Cooldude]

Salah's goalscoring instincts are like a top line striker, always always in position. Misses a lot of great chances but he just keeps getting in position

People seemed surprised with this. Have you not been watching him the last couple of years in Italy?

I tipped him as signing of the season, it's the people who called him a Chelsea reject pace merchant that you should be questioning

 

[Latro]

Salah would not get in Arsenals starting 11 either.

 

[Sozabarus]

That says more about Arsenal than it does Salah.

 

[Cooldude]

Clearly Danny Welbeck > Salah

 

[jod23]

It’s from Sesame Street. Usually something like sneakers, boots, thongs and a sandwich.

This time. 3 good players and an average one.

I take it you dont watch a lot of Firmino who I'm guessing you believe to be average.

 

[jod23]

In his last two seasons in Serie A he scored 29 goals in 65 matches...

And has 12 in 17 this season.

 

[jod23]

Love how we sold both Salah and de Bruyne.

I do often lol at this.

 

[jod23]

Salah wouldn't get into either spurs or city's starting xi lol

He'd saunter in to both.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

salah is a gun if he finished better he would be a complete player

 

[Art Vandelay_]

3 in 11 in the league as a CF is rather average.
I don’t care for the he chases and presses argument. CF’s need goals.

 

[kangaspurs]

You'e forgetting the future of England / the new Gerrard / Lampard / Scholes all in one - Harry Winks.

And don't you forget it. This is Harry Winks' world and we're just living in it.

He'd saunter in to both.

LOL.

In the 3-4-3 that both teams play, Arsenal's front 3: Sanchez, Ozil, Lacazette. No place for Salah. Spurs: Dele, Kane, Eriksen. No place for Salah. Not sure he'd even be the first sub in that front 3 ahead of Son either. Would be a handy N'Koudou replacement though.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

He'd saunter in to both.

Ahead of who? Not starting over Alli or Eriksen in a 3-4-2-1
Doubt he starts ahead of Aguero, Sane, KDB or Sterling either.

Thanks Mou.

He's very important to how we play. Not a huge goal scorer but it's all the rest of the stuff he does that makes him super important. If you think Firmino is an average footballer, then I dont think you watch enough football.

His output at the minute is average. Nothing has changed from two years ago.
You still need a 20+ goal CF to win the league.

Salah would play in front of both Ozil (who goes missing all the time and doesnt score enough goals) and Lacazette, easily in front of Lacazette.

Not first sub in front of Son. LOL. Son's 2 goals in 13 I guess is pretty tough for Salah to contend with.

As for Eriksen and Alli, both important to Spurs but you'd just drop one deeper into midfield and play Salah who has more goals this season than both Alli and Eriksen combined.

That's what Salah and Mane will be. Firmino is the glue that sticks Cout/Salah/Mane together.

Why wouldnt he start ahead of Sane or Sterling. Scores more goals than both, has mounds of pace just like both. Not about starting at City though as they rotate heavily anyways.

Ozil is a 10, and not a goal scorer.

I'm guessing Harry Kane still doesn't get into Liverpool's XI too.

 

[jod23]

Ozil is a 10, and not a goal scorer.

So. You'd still play Salah in front of him. A front three of Alexis/Laca/Salah would be far more potent.

 

[chef]

I do often lol at this.

If we hadnt won 2 of the last 3 titles these offloads would burn(as well as Rom, Mata, Schurrle etc). But i guess as long as we keep buying more decent players and winning stuff it wont.

 

[PendlePie]

How would Salah start over Lacazette? Lacazette is a CF lmao, and a much better one than Sanchez who plays on the left. We playing the old 4-6-0 formation?

I notice you conveniently deleted the Harry Kane sentence. Truth hurts, eh?

Because, Jod.
