Salah is the perfect Klopp player. He would never work that good in La Liga for Barca or Real.
Real could use Salah on the right wingCome on Barca, Salah/ Coutinho double swoop
Me too but I think Barca are dead set on Coutinho and will stick with getting him.He is better than Coutinho for me
Agreed it's a vital point to make that strong smaller players are probably harder to push off the ball than taller ones, still Lukaku weighs like 95 kilos? There is no way he should lose so many physical battles as he does.yeah but that's why he can do it, he's tiny, it's very difficult to push tiny, muscly people over. It's a weird point to make to be honest, and a few in here are doing it. Lukaku can never hope to have the same center of gravity as a player half his size!

I know what you mean, but lukaku should be able to hold off defenders in that manner. First goal he isn't agile enough with his size, the second is a classic striker play pinning a guy back and turning him.yeah but that's why he can do it, he's tiny, it's very difficult to push tiny, muscly people over.

Maybe, but it's unrelated, that's my point. It's totally unfair to use Salah as a comparison. Find someone the same size of him who can do what Salah did today and then get back to me!Agreed it's a vital point to make that strong smaller players are probably harder to push off the ball than taller ones, still Lukaku weighs like 95 kilos?

Size doesn't matter. Haha. Small players like Salah, Silva, Hazard, Sanchez etc. can all hold the ball. Only we have players like Mata, Mkhi, Lingard who get pushed off too easilyHow the feck does Salah hold defenders off when he’s so small?
Never ever thought I'd say it about a Liverpool player, but at halfway stage salah is player of season for me. Carrying them, in his first season with them
Yeah, not to sure what that poster is getting at. The guy is unplayable at the moment.The way he is playing he will work wonders everywhere.
No I disagree completely. He shouldn't be able to hold off players in "that manner" because the reason Salah can do it is his height. Do you think it's pure coincidence that the best players at dribbling and holding off defenders are small? Hazard, Sanchez, Messi, for example. You just can't compare Lukaku to him in that regard.I know what you mean, but lukaku should be able to hold off defenders in that manner.

Yeah but he's head and shoulders above the rest this year, mane and coutinho patchy and interrupted seasons, firmino doing well but salah is having one of those seasonsYou'd think he gets the ball straight from takes on ten players and chips the goalie. Its a team game la.
He's excellent with a sight of goal, seen no evidence he's unplayable when in general possession.Yeah, not to sure what that poster is getting at. The guy is unplayable at the moment.
Was Drogba small?No I disagree completely. He shouldn't be able to hold off players in "that manner" because the reason Salah can do it is his height.

Zidane talked him up. But think they want Hazard as #1 target.I heard Real Madrid are interested in Salah. Would be a really good move for him.
Drogba is a good example, he was very strong and powerful. He rarely scored goals like Salah did today, though.Was Drogba small?
Should count himself lucky he is English, he would be playing for Dijon making £20k a week if he was French.Maguire is a terrible CB. Really thick player
True, not sure even Salah scores many like he did today. By the way, Ibra at his prime was also very strong and powerful.Drogba is a good example, he was very strong and powerful. He rarely scored goals like Salah did today, though.
