Robben's old... we've lived through a golden age of footballers and no mistake- but who will replace the superstars? Neymar, Coutinho and Greaseman? They're not really at the same level, are they?

I have seen internet links recently suggesting Mo Salah is the heir apparent to the throne of the two lads.
For real.
Mo Salah.
Good lord.
I can’t exactly recall 2007 to be perfectly honest but I think it became clear as Ronaldo’s career at United progressed that he was a serious football talent. Getting signed by the biggest club in world football simply helped him along his path.
Salah has had a brilliant season, no argument there. Personally I wouldn’t have given him POTY but I can understand the logic in doing so.
If they lose on Saturday which please god they will then he has just scored a load of goals in a domestic league.
Did you go to the Wedding , Rich ?
You look like you would have fitted in with all the pre match chit chat
Indeed it was a magnificent spectacle
I thought the carriage looked cheap though
Like a great big pram
I have no real idea what to expect from him to be honest so I can’t say he has peaked or not.
You and I as students of the game were of course aware of the lad before he arrived at Anfield but I can say I never expected anything like the goal return we have seen from him. Is it a freak season, it can happen of course but that is not in any way to take credit away from him, it is an outstanding return.
Liverpool will presumably improve next season as they again spend big so he will be in the spotlight again but I genuinely have no real idea what to expect from him. He isn’t going to be jumping ship to one of the two big boys just yet.
Ronaldo was always a star or going to be one, Messi similar. I just mention these two as they were mentioned at the beginning of the topic. Salah has kind of came from ‘nowhere’ at 25-26 or whatever.
Ronaldo? I give you Manuel Almunia

best watched with the sound off tbh
Why just the other day I was saying that if Arteta implements a system similar to Pep's the midfield role played by Silva and KDB might be ideal for the Welsher. Provided he can adjust his style of play, of course.
I thought that was positively complimentary. :shrug:
Still hate the useless Welsh c*nt mind. :-)
Difficult to dislike him really.
Now having said that I bought SW Jnr a new pair of football boots yesterday (white!!!!) and in his excitement in the shop he turned and asked me if I knew who wore the same boots.
There was I think Aubameyang, Mkhytarian, Lacazatte.
No. Mo fúcking Salah.
