Again, I love that because it's honest. It's an aspect I don't like about Salah. I'm old school, only go down if forced and NEVER show pain.
I truly liked his nasty edge as well (not when he kicked Ederson in the head though, albeit recklessly but without malice). Many a team tried to kick him out of the game, but you need that edge, like Keegan, Dalglish, St John, Owen, Suarez, and several others had - "You kick me and I'll kick you: in fact, I'll kick you first to get my retaliation in'. I think Shanks and paisley would approve - you have to earn your right to play at the top level. He never forgot that.
I'm with you on players being honest. I do think though that the way referees favour players who go down, makes me want ours to give it a go just to even things up. I call it playing them at their own game. Jota is a great example of drawing a penalty.
Diaz rolls about 6 times. Salah is constsntly throwing his hands up and sulking about anything and everything. Thats about as much diving as I could put up with. Put it it this way, I perfered riise putting man and ball put over the side line to hammer turning in his own half then flopping over to earn a free.
Chicken or egg situation isn't it. Do we need players to stop cheating or referees to start giving fouls when they don't go down first?
You're right. If referees weren't wrongly giving fouls, players would stop cheating. So it has to start with the referees.
Rumours again that Salah has signed a two year contract, won't believe it until I see a picture of him leaning against a wall.
Some very strong supporting rumours now flying that salah has indeed signed his contract. These related to media work salah was spotted doing, fans believe a social media post like his last contract renewel is about to drop using this media work.
Supposedly we are giving a medical to Walker Peters of Southampton as a new RB. He is out of contract this summer and 27. If true then would he be back up for Bradley?
also plays LB but tbh i would be very worried if we go into next season with those 2 as our first choice RB's
