Mohamed Salah Player Thread (F)

Not interested in any other Prem footballers, just those who play and get paid by our club!

Oh, all of a sudden your actual morals for the situation go out of the window

No worries, I'll leave it there 😄

No, it is up to their clubs to decide if they have acted responsibly, I condemn anyone who acts against all the advice during this pandemic. I was merely commenting that what other Premiership footballers were there was not what we should be focussing on, on a Liverpool FC forum to try to justify the actions of one of of our own! My actual morals are intact, thank you, I suggest you focus on your own!

Mine are sound thanks flip flop

You haven't seen anywhere where I say I condone it

But you were excusing his behaviour, by saying he was not the only Premiership footballer there. No excuse and partly why we have upwards of 50000 deaths in this country. I have seen first hand what this virus does, how easily it can be transmitted, I make no apologies for being so strident in my views! Let’s call it a day, I truly hope you and yours stay safe.

This is very poor judgement, criminal judgement. There are things bigger than football, such as slow death by asphyxiation.

Bit of an escalation that pal. I don't know the national laws in Egypt and all that. But if they allowed mass gatherings like that then we can't do anything about it. Egypt has its own laws/rules and we shouldn't be using our lockdown standards here in the UK to judge what is going on in other states. As such we shouldn't be judging Mo along those lines.

I’d say you need to get a grip! Are you aware we are in the middle of a pandemic, it is spread by people who refuse to obey the rules, who put other people’s lives at risk, just because they think it does not affect them! Grow up, you need to be taken to an intensive care ward to watch people of all ages fighting for every breath, dying, without their loved ones to comfort them in their dying moments.
I’m sorry if you find this an inconvenience, but I actually think we all have a responsibility to protect and care for each other, that is what I am doing, and will continue to do, you can do what you like, I hope you and yours stay well!

I’ve watched a close friend die of this virus. It’s not pretty. My 70 year old ma had it and luckily fought it off. The fact is you don’t justify altering your life and society just because there  is a very small chance of a negative outcome. You so what you can to look after yourself and those close to you.

And as for the “protecting everyone else by wearing a mask”. That’s horseshit. First off, I can’t guarantee your protection by wearing a mask, it’s not up to me to be responsible for your health anymore than it’s not up to me to be responsible for your income or the food on your table. Secondly, the mask thing is like a new religion, everyone thinks it’s their savior when if you read the science, it’s nowhere near a smoking gun and if anything is a false sense of security that causes people to NOT social distance. Do you not find it odd that some of the places with the most stringent mask policies are places that are seeing huge increases in cases? The city just south of me has a mask ordinance and widespread use, my city has no ordinance and not as much mask use. Our case numbers and positivity rates are pretty close, in fact our numbers are a little better. Doesn’t that seem odd?

If we want to fight this, we need more reliable testing (the current testing isn’t reliable at all) and more research in treatments. More mask wearing isn’t the key, it’s just a measure that makes people feel like they are doing something or it’s a justification for allowing people to be in groups again.

Anyway I’m done with that business. You guys do what you want, I’m glad Mo didn’t miss out on his brothers wedding.  You have to live life.

It is definitely a (false) sense of security. I quickly downloaded the cases by state in the US and looked at the total cases in the month of November (through 11/12). 8 of the top 10 states with most cases are states with required mask mandates, with Florida and Missouri being the 2 others.

Here I thought the worst thing to happen when I got out of bed this morning was battling a nasty hangover with a rowdy toddler at home.

F**k this season off allready! Ffs!

I disagree. There are things in life that are bigger than football. Attending your brother's wedding is up there. We're all human and I doubt he was breaking any national Egyptian laws (or at least I hope not). If the club has a problem with him then they shouldn't have released him to go abroad and play for his country.

I just hope he had a fantastic time!

100%

Masks are proven in multiple studies to be effective in reducing the spread of Covid by those who are carrying it by acting as a barrier. But of course they won't prevent one from contracting it. Only social distancing and limiting social contacts to very small numbers, basically the household, can act as a preventative to catching this virus.

If you attend a wedding with a party of 300 almost a year into a global pandemic then there is a very high chance of contracting this virus. People who socialise in these numbers know this. But they simply do not care. Their happiness is more important than the potential risk to their health and those they can further infect.

It's just human nature. For every 10 people who take responsibility in this pandemic there is the 1 who does not want their social life to be inconvenienced so will make a selfish decision to do as they wish against the health guidelines. Hence further lockdowns until a vaccine can be administered worldwide.

The fact that any government can allow parties with numbers up to 300 at a time like this is utterly ludicrous. And to say we can't stop society, or living, the party most go on, before we have a vaccine for a potentially deadly infectious virus is also utterly ludicrous.

Perhaps Mo is of the opinion that he has zero risk of dying from covid so instead of hiding away in a Bunker he wants to actually live life, at least now our 2 main forwards have immunity.

Yawn

But you were excusing his behaviour, by saying he was not the only Premiership footballer there. No excuse and partly why we have upwards of 50000 deaths in this country. I have seen first hand what this virus does, how easily it can be transmitted, I make no apologies for being so strident in my views! Let’s call it a day, I truly hope you and yours stay safe.

No I didnt, I simply stated for an extension of the story he wasnt the only premier league footballer there, you were the one who said you didnt care about that and only about ones paid by our club

For the record I dont condone it, I didnt whatsoever at all in any of my posts, I wouldnt have attended it and i have fully and stridendtly followed the rules all year as i too am fully aware of the costs of this pandemic with people close to me

What i said for the last time is i believe the club would have been aware he was going, if I'm wrong with that i will happily hold my hands up and say so, it's just an opinion because of how the club have dealt with players over the recent years
If they didnt then we will know, if they didnt Mo has been daft because he didnt try to keep a low profile, which is another reason i believe they must have known, the man cant blink in Egypt without it being all over the press, so to go there without the clubs knowledge for me is a highly daft move and one that if that's the case he deserves the maximum fine and punishment the club can hand him

So again, just for the record

I dont condone it, I never did

I think the club would have known he was attending his brother's wedding  - if not the Egyptian FA and then both of those would have big questions to answer

I wouldnt have gone to such an event in this time, I haven't been to a pub or restaurant for example since March. Beyond working, which I have all the way through the pandemic and exercise/taking kids out for fresh air I've been as disciplined as I can since day one as my old man suffered from this in March/April so I know the impact of this as he is a tough tough bloke and it nearly did for him

So please dont put words in my mouth, I had an opinion which you seem to have misconstrued, I absolutely though am not condoning him going there.
Me thinking him having told the club, is not excusing his behaviour

Hope you and yours stay safe too

Wow!! Hot thread 
Opinions differ quite significantly, my two penneth for what it's worth. 

Many guessing was he allowed to go or wasn't he? True is he shouldn't of gone, should of been considerate for his team mates.

Did the club give him permission?  If club gave permission they should be accountable. If they didn't I expect reprimand from the club.

Having a wedding with so many guessed during covid defiantly dodgy no matter what country your in.

 Ps.. I won't be answering the snow flakes. This is my opinion.

Perhaps Mo is of the opinion that he has zero risk of dying from covid so instead of hiding away in a Bunker he wants to actually live life, at least now our 2 main forwards have immunity.

Well if Mo does have that opinion ( another one guessing  ) he's of zero risk of dying I'll also guess he's a selfish c**t.

Mo has two family's, his home life, and HIS TEAM MATES! Consideration should of been given to both, not just home.

Yawn

Yeah lockdowns are pretty boring mate.

Pity we can't all party like we're Mo Salah.

But you know just trying to do my part in all this.

There are some worryingly stupid responses in this thread.

This is very poor judgement, criminal judgement. There are things bigger than football, such as slow death by asphyxiation.

Yep yours being the F***ing the most stupid. Slow death by asphyxiation - like those that died at Hillsborough?

Mo went to a wedding and caught covid, it's not F***ing comparable. Stop acting like a F***ing virgin you dickhead.

Oh F**k off

Oh f**k off

You get out wrong side of bed this morning. 

I don't think it is morally superior to condemn needlessly endangering lives.

Just act like a crying virgin instead then!!

You get out wrong side of bed this morning. 

No just can't be arsed with the comparing of saying footballers have two families, which is F***ing ridiculous.

No just can't be arsed with the comparing of saying footballers have two families, which is f**king ridiculous.

No it isn't ridiculous that's just your opinion. What Salah has done is ridiculous if he did indeed catch it at a party!!!!

I'll kindly ignore the childish and hysterical insults. Have you been living under a rock? How do you think covid kills? What do you think severe acute respiratory syndrome is? Why is it a good idea to hold and attend events that are certain to spread disease and therefore cause people to die? It's not just the people who attended the wedding, it's all the people they come into contact with afterwards, and the people those people come into contact with. It's an ever expanding ripple.
