well the agents work for the players, if he wanted to stay he could instruct them to get the deal done, but i dont think salah will do that

AFAIK the agents fees are paid by the clubs. I would guess that Salah has been told he can get £x and the agent will be the one doing the negotiating.

Salah the amount of games he has played and he still plays looks like a 25 year old not lost any pace!

the clubs pay the agent fees but in the grand scheme of things if salah wanted to stay he could tell the agent to just get the deal done, but he probably knows himself that he has them over a barrel in terms of he is by far and away their best player and the fans will be clammering for them to give him whatever he wants and wont be thinking about the long term of the club, it has a ring of the ronaldos about it.

the issue with salah is that he has them over a barrel, they had to pay him 350k a week to stay last time and he will ask for plenty more than that this time and then its how that affects the club as a whole

I would not mind us paying him 500k a week, the dude is relentless.

he very much is but its the wider implication of paying any player that much money

I think they would miss Salah a lot more than Tront. I personally have always found the latter to be overrated: he's a small cog in a big machine and I have no doubt the dipper hierarchy have already got wheels in motion for his replacement. But finding a goal scoring replacement for Salah is going to be impossible.

They are a great team who will win the PL easy this season .
The reason they are so great is they replaced the team and did it very well something we should do and hopefully will.

they are young fresh and hungry , but this costs .But because its Liverpool the media darlings no one talks about that.
so I will.
the team that plays now .
Goalkeepers: 67 M
Defenders:135 M
Midfield :151 M
Forwards: 277 M

So the squat costs : 630 M

The Midfield and the forwards - Salah are all new . Slot looks very good manager but he sure was given a good team to work with.

Yep, it's hard to overestimate just how much it's worth to have your best players available all the time.

Until this season, you could say the same about Rodri, Bernardo, Walker, even Fernandinho back in the day. They were simply always available. Meanwhile, we've limped to titles that we should have won comfortably in spite of the injury problems of players like Aguero, Kompany and De Bruyne. If John Stones was always fit, I honestly reckon we'd be talking about him as an all-time PL great. But as it is, he's only played over 20 league games in a season in four of his eight seasons with us, and the most he's ever managed is 27.
