    Salah has been very good but he's also had the benefit of Coutinho finding him superbly ... whether he'll be as effective if (when) Coutinho moves on in January, who knows?

    He is his team mate after all...plus Salah was scoring from game 1 and Coutinho wasn't playing back then.

    He is indeed ... but Salah has scored twice against us this season with headers ffs <doh> ...on both occasions they were made by Coutinho with exquisite passes that left Salah with no real decision making ... hence my point <ok>

    seems to be just as effective without coutinho on. Probably more as even though coutinho is a great passer, he's also extra greedy on the ball.

    6 games (inc 2 games where he only got 30 mins and 45 mins) without coutinho, salah has 4 goals and 3 assists.

    With coutinho, Salah only has 3 goals.

    Something tells me he's doing just fine without coutinho :p

    ... at West Ham, Little Red Rimming Spuds .... even you would score there at the moment <laugh>

    ... but seriously ... I think they really compliment each other ... will be a shame to see the combo split ... but that's life <ok>

  12. I think he'll be relieved it's over.

    Let's hope his next club is run by a chairman who won't dick him around.

    Yeah will be a shame, but we'll survive. Coutinho's heads gone, so just want him gone now tbh.

    Salah and Mane are more important to this side than Coutinho. Hopefully Keita will add a bit more steel to the midfield. **** Coutinho.

  14. I genuinely feel sorry for Hammers' fans, Bro. Straight up.

    I was listening to Alan Brazil and Joey Barton on TalkSport, on my way down to Bristol this morning, and every Hammer who came on the phone (and there were a lot of them) sounded beaten and down-trodden. They really did not expect to get anyone better than Moyes. That's tragic. I know I may rip the piss out the Hammers (by calling them Spanners, mainly), but that club deserves better than that.

  15. Unfortunately, you are not in a position to be too choosy, Tobias.

    This.

    I made the same point just before I saw your comments, mate.

    Tobias has got to understand that Everton is not that big a draw, at this point in time. Koeman has really ****ed them up bad.

    West Ham is a better bet than Everton, imho.
