    Imagine the pressure we're going to be under to keep hold of Salah next window.
    I think I'm gonna go on holiday until September.

    We will be fine on the 9th august <ok>

    then the bid will come in for 50mil or something ridiculous.

    Its the same scenario. sit down with him before world cup and be clear say it now if you want to go and the price will be agreed. 300mil but there you go. We know the score and can work. IF you say you are staying for 2018/19 then thats it if you put in transfer request after thats your problem.

    on that performance they won't want him.

    spurs were found out in terms of who we played but he was also found out as not being that clever as we have him offside constantly.

    Looking at the goal he scored v southampton from that corner and comparing it to how henderson shut him down completely as well.. not impressive.

    After a season like this he’ll spend the summer as one of the hottest properties in the game.

    I hope the lad shows you some loyalty, as you did take a bit of a punt on him. The fact that it’s worked out so well suits both parties, give him a pay rise and get at least another season out of him.

    Kane is just an English Lukaku, plenty of goals in a team that's already winning, goes missing when needed

    TBF at least Lukaku doesn't dive

    lucky doesn't dive? more like he only rarely moves enough to try. he's a flopper as well. I've seen it enough to know that.

    No chance he'll leave (for less than the cost of a new stadium). Coutinho wasn't a Klopp signing and had been here ages. Nothing like Salah's situation.

    has to TBF.
    I'd be shocked if his wages are not doubled and a new contract signed shortly as you allude to

    The only thing that will keep him is how many he misses putting side off. he could have 40 goals <laugh>

    theres the one season wonder stuff too.

    We got 140 odd for coutinho.

    The fee for salah will start at 250... yes thats mad but thats what will happen.

    I think hazard has stayed longer at Chelsea due to dips like the 10th place and that is working against him.

    People will want to know with salah is this all a miracle run.... a kevin phillips style run <laugh>

    If you watch the lad closely his confidence is currently so high he’s slotting like he’s playing in a 5 a side game in the gym. He’s obviously not feeling an ounce of pressure when in front of goal at the minute.

    Will he ever have a season as good as this again? I doubt it personally, but he’s going to be a player that stays within the elite, providing he keeps his self belief.

    Away from all the Tottenham cheating.

    Mane really needs to sort himself out, he has the decision making abilities of a Brexiteer.

    He has had injury and red card issues this season, but I feel Salah being so effective has definitely caused him to try too hard. Not as direct as he was last year and takes too long on the ball

    Kane has admitted "he went down" because he felt contact, in other words there wasn't enough contact for him to be taken down naturally so he did the rest himself, dishonesty or making the most of it?

    "Tottenham striker Harry Kane says Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk was wrong to claim he dived to win a penalty during Sunday's 2-2 draw at Anfield.

    "Kane was brought down six minutes from time at Anfield by goalkeeper Loris Karius, who saved the spot-kick.

    Defender Van Dijk, who later conceded an injury-time penalty Kane converted, said: "You see him diving clearly."

    But Kane said: "I felt contact and I went down. I'm not going to jump out of the way because it's football."



    Bit of both really, but as he's English and best English striker around he won't get called out over it unless he makes a habit of it.

    I am pretty sure despite leaving 5 years ago, Gareth Bale still leads the charts with most yellow cards from diving.
    Delli Alli seems to have a horrible attitude and will catch him quick.

    Tottenham have a precedence
