Can't or won't?Would be a no brainer of a signing. Strengthen while also weakening your enemy.
The reality is that they can’t pay him what he deserves to be paid, yet if he did leave all we’d hear about is “greedy little Salah”
Can't or won't?
Wont because it would be smashing their wage structure. Problem with that is you cant sign or keep the best players, especially attackers, as they command big wages. Him and Mane wanted around £350-400k p/w to stay, which when you look around isnt absurd for their levels. But their top earner is Van Dijk on £220k. They put large bonuses in contracts as an incentive, problem is they have just lost the PL and CL so the players wont see those bonuses!

It doesn't make any sense though. It's not long ago that they had a higher wage bill than us (maybe the season they won it), and they're regularly in the same ballpark.Wont because it would be smashing their wage structure.

If we would have signed Salah, Delaney, Rob Harris, Nick Harris, Henry Winter, Tariq Panja and the others would create million fake stories about the next potential breaking FFP by us. They love Liverpool, they love their "healthy" Moneyball system, they love Yankees like Werner and Henry and they will be trying to spread fake agenda about us nonstop.

I read this week that Mane re-signed on 200k a week a couple of years agoDon’t know how Liverpool got away with just paying Mane 100k a week since he has been there and him not making a fuss!?

Maybe the massive bonuses, which after the PL and CL win the other year they would have paid out big time
Supposr its their way of saying lower wages, bigger bonuses. That only cuts it though if the player wins the big trophies, they have only won one of each.
'For the two financial years between 2017/18 and 2020/21, the Liverpool wage bill shot up by 23 per cent from £310m to £325m, with those rises largely attributed to bonuses paid for the Champions League and Premier League success in 2019 and 2020 respectively'

Call me crazy but I wouldn’t actually want us to sign him. I prefer us to make our own hero’s rather than ship in someone else’s
