Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher keeps hopes high on Mohamed Salah slow start


The Reds are clamouring for the Salah they knew last season but he has been slow to deliver. However, Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has come out to defend Salah's form and said he is being unduly pressured to perform.

He said concerning Salah: "He's not in great form, but I don't really think he's in bad form either,"

"I think a little bit too much has probably been made of Salah's form. He is only one goal down on last season.

"I hope Klopp is saying this to him about the goals he scored last season: if he doesn't get over 40 goals, it doesn't mean he's had a bad season.

"Ian Rush was Liverpool's greatest ever goalscorer and he only got 47 in one season. He never got 47 again, he would score 25 or 30 goals a season.

"If Salah gets 25 goals a season then he's had a great season."

Headmaster Pep Guardiola injects new rules into City camp; bans mobile phones

It's safe to say Pep is a perfectionist and also a headmaster, lol. But seriously, Pep has no intentions to drop his standards after a record-breaking 2017/18 season. He doesn't plan to chart a course like his colleague Ranieri of Leicester City did. Pep recently banned the use of mobile phones, and he also banned lateness to training. Every violation comes with a corresponding fine, ask Benjamin Mendy. Pep plans to repeat his outstanding triumph like he did last season.
