      He's "ON THE DECLINE" Yet he's our Top Scorer (24 goals).

      He's "On the decline" yet he's our 2nd top assists.

      How can you claim he's "on the decline" when he's CLEARLY our best attacking player??

      The facts simply do not match your feelings.

      We should not be selling our best players and speculatively buying other players to replace them. We should be strengthening our squad not making it weaker

      Who cares if he's 32.

      This is FSG Brainwashing at its finest.

      He's clearly still a world class player. Luka Modric is 39. If you're good enough youre good enough.

      Sorry but what do FSG have to do with it ?

      Let me guess.. you used the internet to post to this forum.

      So come on then tell us what this “footage” showed and did it occur after Klopp stated clearly - it’s all sorted

      Saying we should sell him because he's 32 (he's actually 31) is flat out, unequivocal, FSG transfer strategy brainwashing.

      The simple fact is, in terms of goals and assists, he is by far our best attacker.

      "He's in decline" is pure feelings over facts.

      Salah has one year left on his contract , if he doesn’t want to sign a new one and someone offers a decent amount of money then you would expect the club to accept that deal

      Salah has been very poor since AFCON and injury , it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that he is past his best

      He's clearly still a world class player. Luka Modric is 39. If you're good enough youre good enough.

      A lot of his goals have been from tap ins/penalties and that's not playing down those type of goals because you still need someone in the right place at the right time to put them away.......BUT he doesn't do half of the things he used to. It's not always about goals and assists, general play, influence on team mates and how you function as a team player, all play a huge part.

      He doesn't try and take his man anymore, he doesn't seem able to score solo/wonder goals anymore. There isn't that urge to help out defensively. He's not able to fight players off him anymore. He doesn't really show or demand for the ball anymore, I wonder if he's lost his appetite.

      When is the last time you can really say he got the better of a LB? 

      The majority of fans can see the decline and sometimes as hard it may be you have to listen to what the majority see, goals and assists don't tell the whole story.

      As far as selling your best players go, he hasn't been our best player for the last 2 years. That's been Alisson and Virgil. We sold Sadio a few years ago and it was the right decision, we sold Coutinho a few years before that and it was the right decision. There is always a right time to sell.

      It is very much a stretch. You people said the same sh*t when Jota came back from injury and didn't score for 6 games. Now look. Your write players off so quickly. With fans like these....

      A lot of his goals have from tap ins/penalties....he doesn't do half of the things he used to.

      We have in Chelsea, the finest example that digging the transfer market does not magically solves a teams problems. Yet for some reason we keep going back to this well.

      Teams and players have bad runs of form. This is our first bad run of form in the season and you guy just want to sell everyone including our best attacking player (one of our ONLY PLAYERS who RARELY gets injured btw..despite being 'old' and 'in decline'). Literally belittling his goals by calling them 'tap ins'. It's actually insane

      Heads have truly gone.

      You do understand the situation with Salah right now

      He isn’t getting younger , this season was prob the first time he has started to have a few muscles issues and started to miss games

      He is our highest paid player

      He will be 32 in June so there will need to be a question to be asked - is now the right time to move on from him and rebuild the team.

      Not sure what Chelsea have to do with it but there is no reason why we can’t be signing players to come in and replace him

      Past is best.. 😂 our best goal scorer this season..,

      The hit job is now on Salah for being past it..

      I’d sell because it’s the only way any future player purchases will be dine from selling high value assets like Salah..so let’s no assassinate the guy ..,

      The situation is , he's our best attacking player.

      31 is not old.

      There are plenty of players that play at the highest Level till their later 30's

      The situation is we've had a couple bad results, our first bad spell in the season, and you are looking to scapegoat someone.

      We are 3rd in the league. 4 defeats in the league (would be 3 if not for var). A vast improvement from last season. You are throwing your toys out the pram.

      Why is it not seen as criminal to be critical of players when their form drops over a considerable amount of time - Mo has been poor since AFCON and his injuries and he is in the later stages of his career and it’s a only human that players form do wain over the years

      He's had one injury from AFCON.

      31 is not 'latter stages of career'.

      He has had two injuries and was out for 6 games ,

      Mo will go down as a legend for us and if he signs a new contract I hope he will provide the same level of output but it’s going to be a question in the summer if he doesn’t want to sign a contract

      My Brother In Christ. We've gone 9 games without a clean sheet. We've scored 77 goals already.

      Salah and our attackers are not the issue. They can't keep saving us if we continue to concede goals.

      Just clutching at straws looking for scapegoats at this point.

      I don’t believe I am blaming Mo for the issues but

      Goals win games , there are many at fault and they include Mo


      Believe he has scored 1 goal in open play since he returned from AFCON and he has missed plenty of chances in that period


      He is playing poorly at the moment - there shouldn’t be anyone who thinks diffrent

      You still need to score goals to win matches and right now we are not taking our chances

      At some point in a players career they do start to drop their output - it’s only natural

      As I said if he doesn’t want to sign a new contract then this summer will be a good time for him to leave

      Again, it's more than just goals and assists....in fact it's everything else. Ignore all the goals and assists he's ever scored for us.

      Salah 2017-2021 was putting in 8...9....10/10 performances.

      Salah 2022-2024 putting in 5...6....7 at best out of 10 performances.

      No player is irreplaceable, and that includes Salah.

      In the 8 games (across all comps) he missed while he was gone at AFCON we scored 22 goals.

      In the 9 league games he’s played since AFCON, he has 2 goals from open play. That’s it.

      That is poor regardless of what he has done in the past.

      At 32yo before start of next season, with only 1 yr left on his contract, it makes perfect sense exploring a transfer.

      I totally agree with you. People, we are not saying that he's not good. He is a legend but if he does not sign up, sell him and try to buy Toney, Wirst or Isak.
