We didn't buy Saul.

But you called him

Salah's rig man... bloody hell.

This bloke doesn't want united fans creaming over Ronnie but is happy for himself and Liverpool fans to cream over Salah.

Double standards are strong with this one.

I guess the equivalent would be if Salah left next season and we brought him back at 36 years old and were creaming over him.

I would approve.

I would approve.

FSG wouldn't bring back yesterday's stars, it would have to be someone else in charge if that happened. Even if it was a freebie.

Salah instead of being a loving family man would also have to become a rapist and then we all ignore that and cream over him anyways.

Like you do for Suarez?

Come on jod23 everybody on here has double standards when it comes to their own players/clubs.

The weird thing was, all I said was that Salah has an incredible rig. Which he does.

Memphis is just salty that his favourite player is a rapist. Dont know what that has to do with Salah's rig though.

So a man not convicted of rape is a rapist but Salah who refused to shake the hands of Maccabi Tel Aviv players isn’t an anti-semite.

Fine line between disliking Israel and anti-semitism. Probably the fair thing to do is give him the benefit of the doubt wouldn’t you say?

But shows how easy it is to mudsling, just as you’re doing to a man not convicted of the crime you’re libelling him with.

Let's also not forget jod's staunch defence of Liverpool/Suarez vs Evra.

Long bow mate.... haha

 

[Cruyff14]

Long bow mate.... haha

And one you've seemingly try to avoid interacting with.

One set of rules for Liverpool players and another set for everyone else.

To be expected I suppose.... haha

 

[jod23]

So many melt downs over Salah's rig.

So bizarre.

And Ronaldo is a great soccer player which he is.

Can't I praise him without you having to make an accusation that is still yet to be proven?

Hang on a second. I appreciate the sentiment about the ease of mudslinging, and that jod is being a complete hypocrite and refusing to engage with his obvious double standards - but I don't think the example of Salah not shaking hands with Maccabi Tel Aviv players is an entirely fair one to the say the least.

Salah has been vocal about supporting Palestinian rights and ending the violence that is being perpetrated by the Israeli government against the Palestinian people (neither which comes under the umbrella of anti-semitism). And his decision to opt against shaking hands with the players of Maccabi Tel Aviv is hardly a shock considering that a very strong case can be made that they are the 2nd most racist club in Israel (behind Beitar Jerusalem). Maccabi fans have constantly abused Arab players, even those who play for the team in a similar vein to the racist fans at Russian clubs which have been roundly condemned by all football observers. The club is owned by a man who has overseen the dwindling of Arab players on their books and been complicit/accepting of the racist behaviour of the fans.

I don't know if refusing to shake hands is the best articulation of his protest, but I think his sentiment is in the right place (at least from the brief research I've done, happy to change if more comes information comes to light). It's a far cry from the circumstances which surround Cristiano Ronaldo and not deserving of the comparison you've made.

I did say it was a long bow.

Levels though bro... there are your Fat Franks and then there are your Mo Salah's.

I dont even understand why you brought it up. It just seems like you're insecure about liking Ronaldo because he's probably a rapist.

I mean I was talking about Salah's rig and somehow you turned it into talking about Ronaldo?!?
