Simply while you assume Mo Salah’s on the way in which out, he rocks up at Outdated Trafford and units the sport alight prefer it’s completely nothing.
But, as issues at the moment stand, the Egyptian worldwide was appropriate to notice post-match that he’s at the moment on track to say goodbye to the membership given his contract is remarkably set to run out in 2025.
Jamie Carragher was fast to reward the 32-year-old after his half within the mauling of Manchester United on their house turf, describing the broad man as ‘too good’.
“He’s too good. He’s taking part in in one of the best league on the earth, for one of many greatest golf equipment on the earth. Whether or not it’s in one other season or two seasons’ time, he’s alongside Kenny Dalglish and Steven Gerrard as the highest gamers to play for Liverpool,” the MNF host informed Sky Sports activities.
“He’s presumably one of the best broad participant we’ve seen within the Premier League, even when hasn’t received the medals that perhaps some others have gotten. After all you combat to maintain him. It’s not about throwing cash at him. It’s not what you’ve carried out previously, it’s what you’re doing sooner or later.
“If you get into your mid-30s, you’ll be able to’t do what you probably did earlier than – however he could be completely different. After all Liverpool need to maintain him and Virgil van Dijk, however it’s going to most likely be about wages. Are they nonetheless on the identical wages as a result of, within the subsequent two or three years, will they nonetheless be the identical gamers?
“That’s the talk that can be had. I might be very shocked if Salah isn’t taking part in for Liverpool subsequent season as a result of I feel he’ll need to blitz each file within the membership’s historical past.”

Is Mo Salah underappreciated within the Premier League period?
There’s not a shadow of a doubt in our minds that Salah can be significantly extra appreciated as soon as he finally does finish his time within the English top-flight.
When you ask us, there’s a irritating tendency on the a part of pundits throughout the nation to field our No.11 in as merely a “goalscorer”.
After all, he’s very good at that. However to restrict arguably the best winger in Premier League historical past – as Carragher rightly suggests, in our view – to that’s simply madness.
Salah might have misplaced some tempo as he’s entered his 30s, however his prowess exhibits completely no signal of waning.
We dare say Liverpool could be silly to permit him to go on the finish of the season – significantly if he maintains this stage of type all through.
