sherry33 234 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Even though Salah's performances in pre-season haven't been too convincing, one shouldn't go OTT with the criticisms or write him off just because of that. I mean, Marin performed rather well in two pre-seasons ago and look what happened. Should never read too much into pre-season performances, whether it's good or bad.There still is a chance for him to go on loan so we can bid for Di Maria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only place to be 11,313 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Very ignorant of you. Ramadan is a very important month for Muslims. Theres only 4 days left. I dont see the issue here.I'm not ignorant of it, I just think it's a silly way for a professional footballer to prepare their bodies. I'm talking about science.Even though Salah's performances in pre-season haven't been too convincing, one shouldn't go OTT with the criticisms or write him off just because of that.

It's poor touches that are a little worrying now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Look like another wasteful signing imo especially with Boga and Baker on our hand. Only signed because we didn't want Liverpool to get him, now he might be loaned out then eventually sold for like 5m in a couple of years if he isn't given a chance this season. I don't think he will get any other chance, especially with so many attacking mid available every summer now like Gritzemann or Reus next year it is much easier to buy a proven world class player then to keep having faith in the likes of Salah.

Ergo, I'm criticising his preparation for these matches.Personal views about religion aside I simply think commitment to your work and teammates should be your primary focus (except of course family). But then I come from a different/more progressive culture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will still have more training (post fasting) than the Brazilian, Nigerian, Belgian and German players. No harm done is my point. romeeh, Barbara, Toli and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is ,like the only place has said, not about religion. So let us keep it to football performance and I think everyone agrees that he had two crappy pre season games. (3 imo).
