Salah is dropped because he's out of form, yet this season in the league he's started twelve and came on once, with four goals and two assists.
Wirtz has started ten, and came on once, with zero goals and one assist. Isak's stats are: start six, sub once, and one goal and an assist.
But watching the games, you can see how poor Salah is playing. Scuffing crosses, shinning the ball out of play and dribbling into cul de sacs.. The numbers don't matter.
If he then throws this kind of entitled wobbler, you'd want him even less near the team. What sort of a message does that send to the squad? You can play guff, have a Barney and still get in the side because you're in a big contract?
If he's still making goal contributions, but no one else is, would you rather drop him for improved team performances? Reminds me of Cron at United, his stats were good but everyone else's went down when he joined.
What an absolute fraud he is. Hope he does get Slot fired and then the next gaffer is forced to pick him over Ekitike or Wirtz, who are the future. He could ruin them for years
