All teams win games."The post was liked by most of his Liverpool team-mates including Szoboszlai. It's way off the standards expected at this football club."Reacting to Salah's message, former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard said on TNT Sports: "I think that he's sending a message to the outside that things in that Liverpool dressing room are not right, the identity's gone and it's really hurting him to see it in front of his own eyes."That is quite damning to the Liverpool manager and the staff in terms of where this team's at.
