Liverpool legend Fowler: "Salah is going to keep on being selfish"

Mohamed Salah has faced accusations of being too focused on his own game, but former Reds player Robbie Fowler claims that it’s not a bad thing. This comes after the incident which happened during Liverpool’s 3-0 win over Burnley. Mane was furious at Salah as the Egyptian forward refused to pass him and later he erupted when Jurgen Klopp substituted him. “Mohamed Salah will continue to show a selfish streak at Liverpool and should make no apologies for it”, said Reds legend. However, after the game Jurgen Klopp and Jordan Henderson revealed that all is sorted out between the two. Fowler told The Mirror: “I’ve ­honestly never heard such nonsense as the stuff that has surrounded this so-called spat between Sadio Mane and Mo Salah. “Everyone commenting and talking nonsense about being ‘greedy’ or destroying team spirit, have they never watched football before? “Because you can’t be a ­top-class goalscorer without total belief you will score. “That’s what goalscorers do. They train for it, their whole week on the ­training ground is spent practising, visualising, working out how to score for every position and the best always believe they can score – from five yards, from 20, from 40. Wherever. Even if it’s easier to pass for a tap-in. “I look at Salah’s record and it tells me he’s going to keep doing it. “You don’t score that many goals without being what people say is selfish. But what the hell do people want? “Do they want him to be a goalscorer or do they want him to be someone who’s always looking to pass? You can’t really have both. “And the other ­nonsense I’ve heard is people saying he’s not passing ­because he’s ­jealous, he doesn’t want Mane to score. “If anyone can slow down the game so much they have time to think, ‘Oh, I’m not passing to him because he’s scored more than me’, well they’re the best who’s ever played. Yes, Salah can be ­selfish when he sees the goal, but, to me, that makes him a great goalscorer. “And it’s not as if he doesn’t create chances for others. Mane knows that, and what he did was just frustration at being taken off.” via Goal
