Jurgen Klopp has summed up Mohamed Salah’s looming Liverpool farewell exactly how supporters will feel about it. Is Mohamed Salah Liverpool’s greatest EVER player?
Speaking on The Anfield Wrap, he said: “We texted actually last night, but I really hope he enjoys the rest of the season properly, and I know Mo only can enjoy if he wins football games and he scores, so that’s what I mean with enjoying.” That line still sounds like Salah in full, obsessed with goals, obsessed with winning and still driving standards in the final stretch of the campaign.Klopp also made it clear that the bigger picture around the 33-year-old is now impossible to ignore. That’s how it is.” There is no argument left to have on that point when Salah has already placed himself among the greatest forwards in the club’s modern history.What made Klopp’s remarks land even harder was the honesty in them.
You still, yeah, here he cannot lose the ball, here he has to defend, here he has to bubble, all these kinds of things.” That is the mark of a truly top player, because even after everything Salah achieved, Klopp still expected more work, more running and more end product.In the end, Klopp came back to the only place this conversation can finish, the output. He stripped the emotion away for a second and went straight to the evidence, because Salah’s production has always settled any debate faster than sentiment ever could.
