Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane do not deeply dislike in any way, John Aldridge has said.
Reports have kept saying both African footballers are always at loggerheads but John believes it is mere rumors and there is no truth in it.
According to him, the people that watch the 2 players every week will know it is all a lie because they keep creating goals for each other on a consistent basis in Europe and the EPL.
He added that he sees them combining well to overpower Atletico Madrid on Wednesday in the UCL.
His words, “I’m pretty sure, as I think most people who watch Liverpool on a regular basis will be, that there is no truth in those suggestions and I think what we’ve been seeing on the football pitch pretty much all season where they’ve been making goals for each other left, right and centre is proof of that.
“I’m sure we’ll see the two of them in tandem together against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday and no-one should be in any doubt over what a tough game lies in prospect.”
On the UCL game, “Many people are pointing out Liverpool overturned a three-goal deficit against Barcelona in the semis last year but this will be a totally different game.
“Atletico are not Barcelona, they love to sit deep and defend, the situation is made to measure for how they are and like to play so everyone – the team and the Anfield crowd – is going to have to be patient.
“We need to start well, I do think we’re in trouble if they get the first goal but if we can play to the best of our ability – which we haven’t done for a little while now – we’ve got every chance.
“It does feel like we’re due one. We haven’t seen a really top-class performance since arguably Leicester away on Boxing Day so hopefully this is the game where everything clicks because the right result on Wednesday could really set us up for the kind of end to the season this team deserves after the phenomenal way they’ve performed for the vast majority of it.”
