Mohamed Salah and the big dilemma Jurgen Klopp will need to solve at Liverpool
Egyptian journalist Marwan Ahmed, who has followed Salah’s career closely, was adamant when he spoke to the ECHO about where Salah should play. “Right wing, that’s his best position," he said.
Despite being heavily left-footed, Salah prefers the right side to allow him to cut in and shoot off his stronger side. In his two seasons with Roma he has lined up on the left in just one game.
Moving Sadio Mane to the left
It seems counter-intuitive to look to move your best player from his position to make way for a new arrival.
But if Salah is so dependent on the right side then Mane might need to use his versatility to help the balance of the team.
In his final season at Southampton, Mane started six games on the left, compared to 21 on the right.
