But i thought everyone on here wanted Salah dropped?.

I think its more that it doesn’t matter who starts or who is dropped. And thatbis apparent now. The football and results are always the same regardless of who’s on the pitch. Maybe its not necessarily the players but the dreadful tactics. Saying that, konate is a rule onto himself these days. I was a fan but the drop this season has been terrible.

Only you Florian. You’re the only one patrolling the site wanting Slot to stay.

That is exactly what I said yesterday Florian.

F Musiala, I don’t post much here, but I’m a consistent reader. It’s clear from your posts that you’re a huge admirer of Slot, and that’s fine.
See, getting dropped is one thing; getting completely exiled is something else entirely.
Salah literally said he had a meeting with Slot, and Slot didn’t even give him an explanation for why he’s been dropped. Meanwhile, Konate, Gakpo, and Mac Allister have all been worse than Salah this season, yet they start almost every game.
Then the media push this narrative that Salah’s legs have gone or that he should be benched. Do you ever see that same scrutiny for Gakpo, Macca, or above all, Konate?
Salah has clearly been cornered.
And this whole idea that Slot has "credit in the bank" is only because of the record-breaking season Salah produced last year. Without that, Slot would already be in Ibiza for a few months now.

Everyone also wants Konate, Macca, Gakpo, Grav, VVD dropped. because let's be honest, they haven't exactly been anything close to what they were last year.
And anyway. Salah was dropped, and what's changed?

Aoe, id agree on the dreadful tactics, by the time our team saunters into the opposition half after 20 plus passes between centre backs the low block is set, doesn't matter what team it is, and then when Mo or Gapko get the ball they're faced with 2 defenders and our full backs have moved inside the already cluttered centre, there's nothing on but another pass backwards or a suicidal attempt at beating 2 men as they are both cut in on to their favored foot merchants, rinse and repeat.
Tactics are fundamentaly flawed.
This does not excuse Salahs outburst, but it must be so frustrating as a elite player being hamstrung by such a useless tactical plan.
