Peter Crouch joked that Liverpool just about managed to survive losing him as a player whilst discussing Mo Salah’s ongoing contract saga with the club.
The former Reds striker noted that his old side would continue to thrive with or without the talismanic Egyptian, citing previous Anfield favourites of the likes of Luis Suarez and Fernando Torres.
The No.11 reportedly rejected the Merseysiders’ first contract offer back in December with talks having not progressed a great deal since.

"Does he want to be an absolute idol, an icon at Liverpool forever, or is it about money?"
"It feels like a departure or Liverpool change their structure."
