Revealed: Mo Salah is still injured with an ankle injury and now needs injections to play

Mo Salah is still suffering with the ankle injury sustained against Leicester almost a month ago
Its difficult to fathom the sort of pain Mohamed Salah goes through before and after playing a football match. 

The Liverpool winger is still suffering an ankle injury sustained against Leicester City almost one moment. The culprit remains Hamaza Choudhury whose nasty challenge sent Salah to the ground in agony. 

Sadly, Salah trains alone, the medical staff and coaches have tailored a specific training programmee for him in a bid to help him recover as quickly as possible.

Before a game is played, the fluid in his ankle is drained and later he is injected with pain killers 'presumably' to reduce the pain he will feel. 

Asked about Salah's injury, Jurgen Klopp said during his press conference: "He should be fine. He has had to do his individual stuff but he will be in training {on Friday}. 

"I think it is more really annoying- for him, not me- the fact that the injury always has a bit of fluid in, and he has to deal with it, we get it out and it comes back, and stuff like that. 

"But this is not a real injury in this sense, so I've heard (from the physios), so he should be fine". 

Normally, Salah needs at least three weeks to recover properly, but, keeping him out for three weeks  could completely derail Liverpool's plans for the season.. 

He is so important that if Liverpool were to rest him for three weeks, they're Premier League title race will instantly be over.. wow!!

Liverpool vs Manchester City: facts, predictions and score line

The penultimate clash between Liverpool and Manchester City will see two of the finest team in world clash with each other. Jurgen Klopp will face Pep Guardiola at Anfield and will be backing on the club's phenomenal record at home. Liverpool are yet to loss a Premier League match at Anfield since Oct, 2017 and have now won 44 matches, scored an incredible 102 goals and conceded just 28 goals..  In fact, they haven't lost to Manchester City at Anfield since 2003 and at the moment don't look like a team will loss that easily.  How the game will be lost  Pep Guardiola will certainly want his team to score first knowing that a goal will unsettle Liverpool's already shaky defense. The combination of Dejan Lovren and Virgil van Dijk is not the strongest centre back pairing in the world its vulnerable and easy to break up. Once a goal is scored, full backs like Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander Arnold will overlap creating opening in the defense for the ...

Manchester City have reportedly closing in on signing Barcelona's central defender Samuel Umtiti.  The 26-year-old France international has struggled for regular playing berth under Ernesto Valverde having suffered series of injuries in the past as well as lacking the pace, power and defensive nous of his replacement-  Clement Lenglet.  According to L'Equipe, Umtiti could be heading to the Etihad Stadium having reached verbal agreement with the club.  Pep Guardiola is a big fan of the defender and wouldn't mind spending $45m to sign the France World Cup winning defender. 

Revealed: Why PSG will sell Kylian Mbappe to Liverpool and not Real Madrid

Paris Saint-Germain Sporting director Leonardo has slammed Zinedine Zidane assertion that Kylian Mbappe has always wanted to move to Real Madrid.  Zidane revealed during a press conference that he spoke with Mbappe and the french man dreams of playing at the prestigious Estadio Santiago Bernebeu.  But such statement has angered PSG chiefs especially Leornado who feels Zidane has really gone off track with such statement. "Honestly, it's a bit irritating, it's annoying, it's not the first time this has happened", Leonardo angrily told reporters.  "I think that now is not the time to talk about this. He is a player who has two-and-a-half years left on his contract with us, so to talk about what he wants, his 'dream', every time.. If we can just stop this, pause this talk.  "Kylian is a very important player for us. Now is not the time to destablise him".  Just as Barcelona failed to resign Neymar, Real Madrid could face similar pr...

3 reasons why Manchester United can beat Liverpool at Old Trafford

For the second time this season, Jurgen Klopp will be able to call upon his dependable first eleven for a Premier League clash.  The good part of this situation is that Klopp will be able to play his best 11 against a depleted and disorganized Manchester United. He will want to knock them off their parch and probably end the tenure of yet another manager by blowing them away at Old Trafford.  Liverpool are aiming to become the second team in history to win 18 consecutive matches after Manchester City as well as the first to win their first nine games in a row. In fact the Reds are 15 points ahead of United after 8 games which is the biggest point ever in Premier League history. But that counts to nothing knowing the history between both clubs. Liverpool haven't beaten United at Old Traford since 2014. While their phenomenal front three have struggled to score goals at the theater of dreams.  Roberto Firmino is the only Liverpool attacker to have managed to score ...

Murphy: Sadio Mane will be fired up to play Manchester City and Guardiola

Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy feels Pep Guardiola has made a big mistake by insinuating Sadio Mane is a 'diver'. Mane is the Premier League's most improved player and he is the reason Liverpool are six points clear of the chasing pack. Winding him up right before Manchester City go to Anfield where they've failed to win in over 16 years don't make sense. Murphy thinks Guardiola never planned to reveal what he thinks about the Senegalese and now forced to regret that statement. "I don't think Pep went to { the press conference} with that in his head, i think he was just triggered by a question about the result at Villa Park and it's just come out", Murphy told talkSPORT. "In hindsight he might look back on that and think, 'i wish i hadn't said that'. If i was him, the last thing i'd want to do is wind up the best player in the Premier League at the moment and before you play him next week". Sadio Mane...

The sad reason why Liverpool can't win the Caraboa Cup?

Liverpool are competing in five fronts this season {the World Club Cup, the Champions League, the Premier League, the FA Cup and the Caraboa Cup} and every fan will be dreaming of seeing them win it all. But achieving that fate will be hard knowing that Jurgen Klopp's team is thin at the moment and lacks the fire power to push in all front. Apart from Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane there's nobody else in the team that can guarantee Liverpool 20 goals in all competition this season.  Divorck Origi though is an exception but the 25-year-old Belgium international is more of an impact substitute rather than a game change.  With that in mine would it be smart to risk Salah, Firmino and Mane- who is already suffering from a dead leg and knock- in the Caraboa?  Is the Caraboa Cup so important that Jurgen Klopp will be willing to risk the world best trio in a $2m worth cup.  If no, then there's no point prioritize the match knowing that Liv...

Milner plays like his 20 and 5 things we learnt in Liverpool's 2-1 win over Leicester City

Another game, another win, Liverpool have beaten Leicester City 2-1 Anfield to make it 8 wins consecutive.  The Reds have now made it 46 matches without a defeat at Anfield and scored an incredible 106 goals at home. 96 of those goals have come from Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah.  Mane yet again proved why Lionel Messi rates him as the best player in the world by scoring an unbelievable goal to put Liverpool 1 nil up and then making key interceptions and tackles to the delight of the fans.  His goal though was cancelled by James Middson but, Mane yet again won a penalty which James Milner converted to give Liverpool all three points.  Here the five things we learnt:  1. Dejan Lovren is a better defender than Joe Gomez and deserves to start ahead of the English man-  Lovren showed again why Jurgen Klopp wanted him to stay at Anfield despite the cash off from AS Roma and AC MIlan.  Klopp knows Lovren is a World Cup finalist...

Everton sacks Marco Silva after Liverpool's 5-2 derby humiliation

Its all over, Everton have sack Marco Silva who have struggled to pass his message across his team this season and fallen short of the club's lofty expectations.  Silva's team have managed to win just 4 Premier League matches this season, losing nine and drawing 3.  That horrible form coupled with the 5-2 drubbing by Liverpool meant a change had to be made and fast.  Marcel Brands, the director of football, and Alexander Ryazantsev, the club's CEO, were visibly seen angrily gesticulating in the Directors' Box at Anfield while infuriated fans were forced to leave early.  The club statement released on Thursday evening reads: "Everton Football Club can confirm that manager Marco Silva has left the club.  "Majority Shareholder Farhad Moshiri, Chairman Bill Kenwright and the Board of Directors wold like to thank Marco for his service over the last 18 months and wish him well for the future.  "Duncan Ferguson has taken temporary charge of the fir...

Why Harry Kane must consider joining Manchester City as Sergio Aguero's replacement

Harry Kane has reached the stage of his career when he has to think deeply about his future and ask himself if sticking with Tottenham Hotspur beyond this season will be good for his career or not.  The England international captain have spent 10 years at Spurs and only once have he come close to winning a meaningful trophy {2019 Champions League}. But in those years, Kane has developed into one of Europe's  top striker.  With Spurs he has scored 171 goals in 263 appearances and won the golden boot in 2 of the last 3 seasons.  Kane is top class striker but he knows he has to win trophies to become one of the best player in the world. He knows scoring goals without winning meaningful trophies is tantamount to a wasted career.  Players remember the number of trophies they won when they retire while fans idolize them for the trophy they managed to win for the club and their key contributions in winning them.  Kane knows he is already a legend at Tot...

Van Nistelrooy is absolutely wrong! Lionel Messi don't deserve to win the Ballon d'Or

uud van Nistelrooy assertion that Lionel Messi deserves the Ballon d'Or ahead of other nominated players is absolutely wrong.  Lionel Messi is indeed a world class player, a dream player every team in the world will want to have but, last season wasn't his best campaign. He did score a respectable tally of goals -50 goals in 54 appearances- which is phenomenal but winning the Ballon d'Or takes more than that this days.  In the grandest of stage, Messi failed to light it up. He failed in Europe {the Champions League} and Brazil {the Copa America}. In both competition, Messi struggled to make any meaningful impact.  Barcelona were blown away by Liverpool at Anfield despite arriving the ground with a 3-0 win with Messi scoring one of the best free-kicks in the tournaments history. And with Argentina who finished 3rd in the Copa America, Messi found the net just once.  Dani Alves 34, was the player of the Tournament and not Messi who was...
