The Premier League is losing one of its legendary consummate professionals with James Milner’s announcement that he is retiring. I have so many great Millie stories, but probably the one that will stay with me is at the FIFA Club World Cup final in Qatar. Infantino is draping the medals over the player’s heads. Millie’s medal clasp breaks and drops to the floor. In a flash, Infantino puts another metal around his neck, but Millie bends down and grabs the broken one. I’m next up in the line and he says “quick, stuff that in your pocket” 😉 Not the best video, but you can see him slipping me the medal. Legend…
Subbing Mohamed Salah off in the 73rd minute of his final game for Liverpool for Jeremie Frimpong is exactly why Arne Slot can get right out of here.
Why? Let him play the game out, let him get his goal.
If you want to take him off, do it in the 90th minute.
Horrendous, that.
I actually rate this from Mo ! He could have said it when he had left but it wouldn’t have had the same impact, he’s put his legacy on the line to say what fans have been saying all season. As a club our standards have to be higher on and off the pitch ! Slow football doesnt work at Anfield!
