Massive cheat of a player, that's all he'll be remembered for. Premier League will be better off when he's fucked off the diving shithouse.

I think he'll be remembered for more than that.
Salah at his peak was great for the PL.
You might not miss him but the PL will.

Better cheat than a footballer and he was a great footballer. May affect the viewing figures in the Middle East but the amount of diving in games will go down once he's gone so it's swings and roundabouts.

Given that was before the 'birth of football' and was not a cup final, 'a peak British television audience of over 12 million' really was something else, especially as the population in 1989 was around 47.5 million.

I think it sounds about right for a final round game between the top two, winner takes all match. It would have been the only match on TV then of course.

But surely the PL would block any over inflated deal with what could be deemed an associated party, right? Right?…..

Well they thought 56m for Nunez was fine

He was -in his prime- a magnificent goalscorer: the real poacher instinct that a good striker needs. To me it's just a crying shame he went to one of the two worst clubs he could have chosen.
But goalscoring aside, he was a snidey, cheating, diving fucker who should have had many many more cards than he ever did: thus he would have been suspended for most games.

Great goalscorer but a **** of a man.

How could they not when he was bought for more?

 

[PistonBlue]

What I find hilarious is 'The Egyptian King" accusing the club of throwing him under the bus. What does he think his cryarsing about Slot is, if not throwing Slot under said bus?

Who gives a toss about the rights and wrongs? Let’s just have a good laugh at the implosion

 

[PistonBlue]

And the staggering amount Barca paid for Couthino

 

[WestGorton]

15th April if memory serves me correctly, we got stuffed 4 0 at Blackburn Simon Garner hat trick

I was there. Found out about the disaster on the way out.

But Nuñez hadn’t thrown his toys out of the pram and burnt his bridges with the coach.

It was also on a Friday night, which in itself was a rarity then, and the night when most people were out doing other things.

A week after the FA Cup final too which was also pretty unusual.

That should be chiselled as deep as fuck on his gravestone.

So was I , the guy standing in front of me said 6 Forest fans where dead remember it clear as day

How many of those goals were penalties from an obvious dive? The man's a massive cheat who will never be remembered as a truly great player as when he had the opportunity to play football he invariably chose to throw himself.to the floor.
Same with Suarez, Mane, Klinsmann, Van Persie, etc. Could have been remembered as truly great players but mostly remembered outside their fanbases as being massive cheats and a stain on the Premier League.

He's scored 54 penalties in his career, but the record books don't distinguish which ones were from an obvious dive, alas.

They had been supposed to meet earlier but circumstances dictated its postponement.

Salah was the only player they had that I genuinely feared when we played them. Might have been a combination of never playing a proper left back against him, but none the less he was an immense finisher and made it look easy. I'd have him at City no problem, he's still world class.

Liverpool have folder so quickly, I find it incredible. Only 3/4 months ago they looked set to win it again but now they'll be lucky to get into Europe. I know a few match-going Scousers I used to work with and every single one says he's toast. He's lost the team and they said he's on borrowed time. No one they know wants Slot to stay which tells you a lot.

The problem managers like Slot have is they don't have a good CV. If you are Salah/VVD etc you have played for better managers and think you know the game better than Slot. If Klopp was in charge he can show them a few trophies and they will back down. If Pep was in charge, they wouldn't say a fuckin word as they know he's the best there's been.

It's great to watch! First United provided the fun but now Liverpool are on self-destruct as well!

It’s a different bus.

Being generous to him if say half. He's a cheat.
