Everyone knows about the fairytale ending that could see Steven Gerrard win Liverpool the title, but he may play a role in the Mohamed Salah contract saga ...

Gerrard understandably wants to make the Brazilian’s stay at Aston Villa a permanent one, but it might just make the Liverpool hierarchy a little more twitchy — the lack of plausible buyers is currently an ace up FSG’s sleeve in the contract stand-off, but they risk overplaying their hand.

It allows clubs to spend a quarter of any savings they make or revenue they generate. Why is that relevant to Salah? It all comes down to whether or not Barcelona have a realistic prospect of signing him. But whether or not the ultimate catharsis for Gerrard remains in the realms of fantasy, the former Liverpool captain could still end up having a massive impact on his old club just 40 days later. While Jürgen Klopp preaches one game at a time, Liverpool fans are inevitably looking to the final game of the season.

“He caused Liverpool massive problems, it’s not the first one in the first half, he’s just got to be careful of that. “He’s a great player and lad, one of the best on the pitch today. “The second one on Anthony is a foul. It’ll definitely be in referees’ heads and maybe he hasn’t got what he’s deserved because of a few incidents in three or four other games. “I am not trying to create conflict there, I just think it is the reality of football sometimes.
