Mo Salah

Dippers have got themselves into a right mess with their contracts. TAA is almost certain to go to Real on a free - as he would've signed a while ago and is now around 8 months away from a £50m+ signing fee. VVD will get great offers as CB's have longer life cycles so they will either have to go crazy on wages or accept the loss. Salah they're going to have to go to over £400k to keep. Although at least with him he probably can be rolled year-to-year as he knows he'll get an insane Saudi contract whenever he decides to leave. However, these three are probably three of their best four-five players.

Feels they've got themselves into some sort of last dance situation. Although hopefully one that ends up with a Crystabul ending.

I'm sure a lot of Liverpool fans were happy to accept a bid from the Saudi league last season for Salah. They were saying he's finished at the top. If you dissect his performances, he has decline from his peak. He has a few weeks where he plays well, but then goes missing too for long periods. His purple patch now is definitely due to him trying to get a new contract.

He is on course for his best ever prem season in terms of goals and assists combined.Only twice has he gone multiple games without scoring,both times were right after afcon.

Purple patches are luck based,and that luck soon runs out( for example:a player mostly who relies on penalties to pad his stats could just happen to score a very high number of pens within a 10 game period,making him look better than he actually is.)

What you are implying is not a purple patch, because you are saying he is simply trying harder,but there is nothing to suggest that this is the main reason for his great form.

He is obviously desperate to win the prem and ucl,aswell as break scoring records.That will not change,with or without a contract.
