Liverpool FC Forum / Re: Mohamed Salah - Best in the World *

Could easily have been the frustration of a player knowing he might not win a major trophy again.

If he had the same line of thinking back in January it might have been a different outcome. Egypt came first again.

I am grateful for what he has done but Its very hard not be pissed off with him. He was our main man and never came to the party and to make matters worse he does that yesterday to make it look like we've had a complete meltdown. As great as he was, was he reaching the same heights with another manager? I'm not sure. Klopp didn't deserve that with only 3 games left. Thanks and good luck.

You want a more recent one. How about spending £25m on Tyler Adams after he failed a medical at Chelsea. He has made 3 appearances this season. As I have said the remain thing is Bournemouth have spent a lot of money but recouped very little. Over the last two seasons they have brought in £1m from players sales.

He was also the Technical Director when Bournemouth got relegated. For me there is nothing that screams out that he should be trusted to be the Sporting Director of one of the World's biggest clubs.

And he's there now when they're having their most successful season ever?

I think Al's issue here is Hughes seems to have been appointed by virtue of being Edward's mate from their Portsmouth days. Rightly or wrongly, Edwards has been given almost total autonomy on football matters by FSG and yet there wasn't any hint of a "robust and data-driven process" being applied to recruitment for this particular job. He was all but given the nod the minute Edwards accepted the role of Football CEO, almost as a prerequisite. That doesn't sit well with me.

It does smack of cronyism, but that exists everywhere on some level. I've benefitted from it previously, in finance, as people want to work with people they know and trust. Then you get massive multinationals like BMS, Nvidia etc, that interview externally but generally they end up making an internal appointment.

He's very good at potting balls. I'm not convinced he's that great at actual snooker though.

His safety play/snookering is atrocious. Gets straight down and just hits it with no thought.

Kiev, Paris, City's cheating, the Senegal double-whammy of AFCON and WCQ. Sure, the frustration must burn but he has a PL, CL and CWC winners' medals to look at. Hardly Harry fucking Kane.
