Salah most likely to leave. Meanwhile Salah saying hes most likely to stay and wants an extension. I dont know but that feels like 2 opposite sentence
Trent would be the hardest to keep. Due to a combination of age, wage, talent, and consistency. (Real Madrid here we land)
The video says the same thing lol
If they joined Manchester city, Europe is done.. Europe ucl will become farmers league
Why? Because it was poor planning to sign them to finish all in the same year with no option
no way Salah is going Saudi or MLS he's still world class
Van Dijk to Al Nassr 😏
Salah going to MLS would be great. Many people would go see him play😊
Red Star Defender?
If we have to keep only one it has to be Trent
Mo has already came
Out and said he does not want Saudi move and his family are very happy and settled in Liverpool
It’ll be grant the hardest to keep for sure Real Madrid knocking on his door already
Madrid as soon as they see TAA leaving:
As soon as he said Salah is most likely to leave this video became pointless😂
Salah is the best player itw, he's not going to saudi or mls haha
English media hates Salah so much 😂😂
Talents come and go. Only the team and fans stand still. It’s alright lads.
Considering salah and van dijk will be 33 and 34 next season, any long term deals will be unlikely and max one year extensions would be the only viable options, salahs out put has declined whilst still being at top premier league numbers, however its the injury risk and that means replacements would need to be signed whilst still having both at the club, financially this makes no sense so its very likely both will be released and younger alternatives signed, having two ageing stars on £200,000 plus contracts and having two players on £100,000 plus to be injury backs ups, rotation options and their replacements next year is financial stupidity, as for trent Alexander-Arnold…hes not that good unfortunately, is likely to demand a massive contract, he had a good season or two, but he isn't a international starter nor will he be, his attacking output is outweighed by his defence frailty, there are more well rounded right backs out there who are much more athletic, better defensively, and whilst not as good going forward is actually what Liverpool need, Liverpools midfield is much more able to contribute to attack than before, also trents experiment in midfield shows he isnt actually good enough to to hold up, so unfortunately its more than likely will either be sold or released, Liverpool fans need to remember a full back is a defense and athleticism first position not attack and he isnt actually that good at attack more a one season fluke and has been ezposed when put in midfield
Salah is too good to leave for US or SA yet!
Salah is still top club level
Stop saying 'lets find out' 🙏
I hope Trent would go to Real Madrid, so that they can lose plenty of Champions League.
Van Dijk Fc Bayern Munich
TAA Fc Barcelona
Salah would be the hardest to replace.
Trent will definitely not leave…hes a club legend already and will cement his legacy in anfield
As a lpool fan I'd rather give salah vvd and trent a new contract than bid 70m+ for anthony gordon.
When Madrid signs all the star players , people appreciate
But when man city does it , they call it oil money
Next level hypocrisy
Salah will be in Europe
So many clubs will want him
