Fuk off Egypt 🇪🇬
Egypt no brain. Why only Salah, groom any other younger players. No brainers. YNWA
If Salah does not play, Egypt FA should request/demand Liverpool bench Salaeh for 5 matches
Sad.
The Egyptian FA and the manager are treating Mo Salah so badly and I wish that Salah announces his retirement from international football very soon. The rigged media and malicious ex players like Medo in Egypt are circulating rumors and fake news to promote for their narrative of salah as unpatriotic and traitor
Sponsor's wont pay FA if Salah dont show.
All about business.
Kids should play Friendlies …..simples
If you want the best possible football for league and international audiences then treat players as people. yes they are paid a lot as pro sportsmen, but in past 10 years or so it feels like profit chasing is equally as important as the actual sport.
How can we expect to see the best of Salah if we wring him dry
look, Egyptian national team sent him back injured to be treat by LFC in Jan, so obv they already accept LFC are the best place for him to be treated and rehab.
He is still coming back from muscle fatigue and it feels like –
LFC – treating Salah like a human being and star prize
Egypt – treating Salah as a star prize and an income stream (tickets)
Plus the venue is in Australia, does anyone ever feel sharp after flying? that's a lot of time flying
It makes no sense all of you bashing the Egyptian FA but the English FA have done the same with other players but it’s not been such a big story and I get Liverpool have a title race but playing for your country should be down to the players it’s an honour to represent your country even at friendlies
If it's a friendly game, they should not release him.
It's a friendly, Behave Egypt. The manager of them literally made it sound like Salah chose club over country… You're not having him till June.
Salah would be stupid to play the international friendly knowing he could win another 3 trophies
the Egyptian FA is corrupt organization it's well known fact new clueless manager want to make name for himself at the expense of Mo Salah
Liverpool doesn't need to beg Egypt Salah can simply tell them he won't be available
Saka did that few months ago with England and they understood sometimes nations need to give their players break if they value them
No big deal that people are making of it…he'll play for Liverpool then feel a strange tweak and medical staff will pull him out …its what ALL clubs do and always did since these stupid friendlies began
despite the decision if he is ready to play against man city so he is ready to play for Egypt
easy and simple
Livarpool
Sorry do Egypt pay salah’s monstrous wages??
It’s a friendly!! Liverpool need Salah to win the title! What’s wrong with Egypt?
LFC dont control salah phone if he not answering the phone to the Egyptian FA thats nothing to do with Liverpool. Unfortunately i think they can block salah from playing for lfc if he doesn't report for international duty
Quite right to, risking a £100 million player who’s been injured for weeks and not played a min of football for his
club who pays him millions of pounds to play for them. A friendly game for Egypt is not what he needs and the
risks are huge worn thru don’t know how he will react to his first game playing after injury.
Did you get this news from YouTube as well???
If this was the england team then yall wont be saying this. This show how racist the western media is. Whenever it comes to an african team then its okay to hold off players
I am with liverpool on this one
Salah should 100% say himself he wants to prioritize the run in with Liverpool now, after Afcon etc.
So playing for friendly against New Zealand is more important than fighting for PL title against City?
Salah won't be much good to Egypt if they don't manage his injury properly.
Here's a radical thought, how about asking Salah himself whether or not he wants to play in the International friendly rather than making it all about club vs country !
What does Liverpool vs Man City game (which is this week) has to do with Egypt calling for Salah (for the friendly match after 2 weeks) though?
Time Salah had a reality check……
..if it is a world cup qualifier, i would understand. But friendly? At this critical moment for LFC? Cmon man.. Egyptian FA..u ARE DISRESPECTING OUR CLUB & EVERY LFC FANS ACROSS THE GLOBE 😡😡😡
It's up to Salah and i think he will do as Gravenberch did earlier. To tell Egypt FA thanks but no thanks. YNWA!!
2 many excuses w/Li-VAR-pool piling up b4 bottling the PL‼️🙄😆
It's simple Liverpool pay his wages and have all the right to say no
Not so friendly about the friendly are they
Liverpool say NO. its NO. Salah is global icon, this egypt fa is so selfish.
Liverpool pay over 180k per week for salah our games are more important than a friendly
Friendlies are a joke and so are the Egyptian FA…
Egyptian FA is trying to flex their muscle for a meaningless friendly, right in the midst of a hot title battle for Liverpool and Salah. Who’s been mostly injured in the past 2 months. Maybe it’s time for Salah to flex his muscles and declare that due to the extreme situation that he’s been put in, he’ll no longer play for the national team.
Screw the Egypt FA salah just retire from international football , he aint winning anything from playing international footy
Believe it or not,i think Egypt is being paid by Abu Dhabi to force Salah to leave Liverpool in a crucial time of the season, i wouldn't be surprised.
