Mohamed Salah fiercely defends his colleague at Liverpool ... and disapproves of calls for his replacement
The star and goal-scorer of the Liverpool team, Egyptian Mohamed Salah, set out to defend his colleague, Brazilian Roberto Firmino, especially after the many criticisms that affected the player in the recent period, due to the decline in his level and the absence of goals, as well as in light of the brilliance of the newcomer, Portuguese Jota.
The British "Mirror" newspaper reported that Salah booed the calls to replace Firmino and put him on the bench, and said that the Brazilian star is a very important element in Liverpool's attack, and that he cannot be dispensed with, or transferred to the bench, despite his few goals.
It is noteworthy that since the advent of Jota, he scored six goals, including a hat-trick against the Italian team Atalanta days ago in the Champions League, while on the other hand, and since the beginning of the season, Firmino scored only one goal.
When Salah was asked about "who prefers to start a major start in the Premier League summit tomorrow against Man City, Fermino or Jota?"
He continued: We cannot forget what Firmino gave to the team, and it is not reasonable to invite him to sit on the bench only because his goals have receded. He gave a lot to the team, and made many goals and opportunities for many years, and is still able to give.
