    I think it's only now that people are realising just how good Mane was. An absolute superstar who was all about the team, overshadowed by another who got the glory.

    Pete, Southampton

    Anyone else think Salah is "quiet quitting" now he has his new contract?

    "A clean sheet is massive - it's something that you love, as defenders, stopping goals going in. You leave the rest to the attacking players. Credit to us as defenders."

    Adam: I thought the reason for Salah's sub par performances was because of his contract issue dragging on. That was sorted a while ago, but he's just as poor. Whatever is going on, we could do with it being over sharpish.
