Critics Try to Clip Salah’s Golden Wings…
In this stellar Liverpool season, you might think Mohamed Salah is immune to criticism—like a pharaoh shielded from the pesky sands of detractors. But no, a fellow Reds icon has taken a light-hearted swing at the Egyptian King. Despite leading the Golden Boot race, Salah’s recent form has been questioned, proving even legends aren’t safe from playful jabs.
Salah not only tops the goal charts ahead of Erling Haaland but also leads the Premier League in assists. He’s eyeing the Ballon d’Or, and let’s not forget the prospect of shattering goal contribution records. Still, Liverpool legend John Aldridge decided to stir the pot a bit, labeling Salah’s performance in the recent Champions League match as “really poor” on the Blood Red Podcast. Guess the pint after the game wasn’t the only thing brewing!
To be fair, Salah did have an off day against PSG—an occurrence rarer than finding a unicorn in the penalty box. But while Harvey Elliott scored after replacing him, Salah remains a pivotal contributor. Nine scoreless games out of a whole season? Even legendary lions like Messi have the occasional nap. Salah’s still worth his weight in gold, and Liverpool’s glittering successes owe a lot to his sparkle.
