- Jones picks ultimate ليفربول legend
- Salah doesn’t make his top two
- Mane & Carragher also snubbed
في مقابلة حصرية مع بالجم Jones was asked to pick between eight Liverpool icons across three rounds. The first pitted Steven Gerrard against Xabi Alonso, Jamie Carragher against Virgil van Dijk, Salah against لويس Diaz, and Sadio Mane against Roberto Firmino. With little hesitation, the إنجلترا international put Gerrard, Van Dijk, Salah, and Firmino through to the semi-final stage.
Jones then chose Gerrard ahead of Van Dijk, before opting for Firmino over current team-mate Salah. Gerrard got the nod in the final round as Jones admitted the former Liverpool captain was his “idol” when he was growing up.
This is not the first time Jones has snubbed Salah in public. Back in January, Jones admitted to تي إن تي سبورتس that he believes former تشيلسي star Eden Hazard is a “better footballer” than Salah. Still, there has been no sign of a rift between the two Liverpool stars, who are set to line up together once again when Arne Slot’s team open their new الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز حملة في المنزل ل بورنموث يوم الجمعة.
