      New 5yr deal for the wee man, no release clause.

      You’re welcome 😉

      Probably a well deserved pay rise.
      The way Liverpool fans reacted to Spain's exit, Salah knows we have his back and he's a good guy and will have our back on the pitch.

      That is excellent news Al,especially the no release clause,just got to hope the club don't hope to get rich on him by flogging him.

      Good news.

      Effectively just a pay rise for the player, extra year on top but his original deal didn't have a release clause either.

      Makes sense that he is the clubs highest paid player and £10M a year looks competitive now with other top clubs.

      Let's have another 44 goals this season Mo!

      no. Barcelona can't really afford to spend big. They have to balance the books after they get Griezeman. Additionally, he won't be on the same teamas Ramos. Other than those two clubs, Liverpool is a much bigger prospect than other clubs.

      Griezman isn't going to Barcelona mate, those of us who had nothing else to do but watch 40 odd minutes of his announcement video can confirm that, apparently other attackers are not on their radar

      £10 million GBP ?

      Not as obscene as that journeyman c**t who we dodged a bullet on Mr Alexis Sanchez of the Scum on £26 mill.

      Or ladyboy  on € 21 million Euros or Messi on € 40 million.

      £10m per year is a big wage, maybe not in your opinion, but it is in mine, plus bonus', sponsorship, plus image rights....

      It's a fair wage though, 192k a week. When you consider Emre Can wanted 200k a week and we said errr no.. you can get the idea we are paying people what they are worth, not what they want. It may effect player retention on lower skilled mercenaries like Can, but eventually we'll have a well skilled more loyal team.

      Rooney is on 150k a week at Everton right now. Can't be bothered to check those. I know Rooney is no where near as good as anyone on that list, but it still acts as some comparison. If Rooney is on 150k a not sh*te player could be on double or triple.

      Great for him, getting a rise and that.

      Deserved.

      For us? About as much use as a chocolate fireguard Coutinho's renewed contract.

      If he ever wants to leave, the blueprint is there on how to go about getting what he wants.

      If we offer a new contract and he signs people say 'oh it means nothing except we will get more for him' and if we don't its 'no ambition,  stepping stone blah, blah, blah' , just can't win with some people

      I'm happy he's signed a contract. Just don't think they mean much nowadays. Player power and all that.

      You just can't really win by signing players on five year contracts anymore. They're merely tools used to tweak the nipples of the players in the hope they don't want to stray.

      It's not me being unhappy about us doing it so don't make things up. It's as much as we can do. Unfortunately, though, it's not enough in this day and age should a player get his head turned.

      Agree, pretty much nothing the club could do more...no matter the player 5 year no-clause contracts give the club flexibility to let things happen on the clubs terms and that's all we can do or hope for.

      As players go, Salah has shown a lot of dedication to the club so far, done a lot of talking about wanting to win things with the club and that he wants to be here for years to come so unlike when Suarez and Coutinho signed their new contracts, I don't feel concerned that he will be off in a years time. Salah has never given us any slight inclination that he will seek a move elsewhere at any point soon so I think this contract renewal, like Bobby's, we can actually just be pleased about and have no concerns, not for the next couple of seasons at least anyway. Neither seem particularly bothered about Madrid or Barca and no other team has their attraction and nor are they purely motivated by money, they've gotten the bumper new contracts because they've earned them, they haven't thrown their toys out the pram or made noises about not getting paid enough.
      With Suarez and Coutinho, it was inevitable they would be off to La Liga sooner rather than later, just don't get that feeling from Salah.

      Yes he can still leave but what this contract gives the club is a HUGE amount of money IF he ever tries to force a move like Coutinho did, but I genuinely don't think he will do that, unless our performances start to slide dramatically and that I really don't see happening.

      Out of interest does anyone know how much DC are paying him, I find it bizarre that the US teams keep getting these old has been players, if China can attract decent talent from Europe then surely the US can as well.

      Agree. It's a good move but I can't bring myself to be overly excited about stuff like this anymore. I've seen far too many good players with a good attitude saying all the right things having their heads turned not long after. He needs to win some sh*t, and win it soon, because he's 26 and will want trophies to go with his prime years as a footballer. Hopefully he can get them here unlike our more recent top players.
