‘When you see his name’… Crystal Palace defender says Liverpool have a player he’s so scared of

‘When you see his name’… Crystal Palace defender says Liverpool have a player he’s so scared of

Mohamed Salah must be one of the worst players to play against in world football.

The winger, quite literally, has it all.

He can beat you with his pace, his strength or his dribbling ability, and once he’s past you, you know that the ball is only ending up in one place – the back of the net.

Indeed, Salah isn’t just one of the fastest and strongest players around, he’s one of the best finishers the Premier League has ever seen too.

Speaking on Premier League Productions, Joel Ward has been discussing what it’s like to play against Salah, and he says that he always knows that he’s going to have a tough afternoon when he sees Salah’s name on the teamsheet.

Ward says Salah scares him
The defender spoke about the Liverpool star.

“I think he record speaks for itself and when you see his name on the teamsheet you know you’re in for a tough afternoon,” Ward said.

“You know, Mo Salah is a huge player for them and will continue to be so and I’m sure he’ll be back in the right place when he’s called upon.”

Frightening
We can absolutely understand why Ward is scared of Salah.

Could you imagine how difficult it must be to defend against Liverpool as a full-back?

Not only do you have Salah running at you, you also have Trent Alexander-Arnold just behind him waiting to create something special himself.

Alexander-Arnold and Salah may well be the most frightening double team in Premier League history, and we certainly don’t envy any defender who has ever been tasked with stopping these two.

Salah is out for a few weeks now with a hamstring injury, but unfortunately for Ward, it doesn’t look as though the winger will miss the Reds’ next game against Crystal Palace and it could be another long afternoon for the Eagles.

Tottenham Hotspur continue to be interested in signing Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo, even after securing the services of Radu Dragusin earlier this month.

According to a report from Telefoot, Spurs remain interested in signing Nice centre-back Jean-Clair Todibo and have ‘held talks’ with the player’s entourage.

The report says that the Lilywhites are not the only club engaged in discussions with the player’s representatives. Chelsea and Napoli are also among the clubs reported to have held talks.

It adds that the French club are not at all interested in letting him go this month but if he maintains his strong performances, he could ‘become the biggest sale’ in Nice’s history.

Known for his defensive prowess, Todibo has emerged as one of the top defenders in European football, delivering standout performances for OGC Nice.

With a reported €60 million price tag, Nice has set a substantial valuation for Todibo, suggesting that any English club pursuing him would need to make a significant investment.

TBH Says:

Todibo undoubtedly possesses the qualities to excel in the Premier League, potentially justifying the long-term investment.

But It will be interesting to see whether Spurs pay big money to sign the highly-rated defender, considering they just spent close to €30m on Radu Dragusin.
