The Egyptian continues to improve his form for Liverpool, but the Portuguese threw a tantrum at Old Trafford

Undoubtedly a striker is valued and loved by a fan according to the amount of goals or assists he can generate match after match, and even more so when he is in a world-class team. Recently, criticism has dogged great players such as Mohamed Salah who has not had a good start to the season with Liverpool, but even with those shortcomings shown until his last match, the Anfield fans continue to support him and encourage him to improve, a situation that at least has not been seen in other teams such as Manchester United.

While Liverpool's Egyptian attacker was supported at all times by his fans ahead of the game against West Ham United, a few miles away at Old Trafford Cristiano Ronaldo was the subject of criticism and ridicule from fans as he once again started from the substitutes' bench, The situation worsened towards the end of the match when coach Erik ten Hag, with the result in the bag, did not even consider him for a few minutes against Tottenham, and the Portuguese went straight to the dressing room even when the referee did not blow the final whistle.

Although Salah has not been the most effective player in the Premier League so far, having only scored three goals, the Egyptian is still among the leaders in the UEFA Champions League with five goals and an assist, a situation that Cristiano Ronaldo cannot boast as he has just one league goal, recently scored against Everton, and one more in the Europa League, scored against Sheriff.

The relationship that Jurgen Klopp has with Mohamed Salah and the one that has been seen so far between Ten Hag and Cristiano Ronaldo does not seem to have a point of comparison, because while the Portuguese has been annoyed on multiple occasions by the decisions of his coach to put him on the bench, with the Egyptian attacker of Liverpool seems not to be the same, because for starters the German coach of the Reds has given him income with the purpose of contributing to the scoreboard and not just to gain a few seconds to the contender of the 90 minutes.

<strong>Salah causes envy to Cristiano Ronaldo</strong>

On social networks there are more comments in support of the European legend, many of them suggesting that he should leave United to look for another institution that values his quality and his career until now, because although his level has declined and has not seen the same attacker of past years, comfort with the group and with the team is a fundamental part for a footballer to fully develop his activities, something that Klopp has done to perfection with his players, making elements such as Mohamed Salah, Jordan Henderson and the Uruguayan striker, Darwin Núñez, shine in this difficult season.
