Bob Paisley described the team hotel as a “doss house”, the ball as “a pig’s bladder” that “was not good enough for blow football”, adding that “teams in the Durham Mining League would not play with it”, and as for the food, well, he’d had “better rations in my bivvy in the Western Desert”, back when he was in Montgomery’s Eighth Army.Before their first ever trip to Turkey the club had been particularly worried about their hotel, which is why they sent someone out to inspect it. “There’s nothing to say about Mohamed Salah,” he began, rather worryingly.

“He’s a global superstar,” Dogan roared. I believe he can add much more to Trabzon’s brand value.” It’s certainly a beautiful sentiment, bringing a tear to Football Daily’s eye.Early indications are however that this deal might work out very well indeed, for Salah at least.
