Mo Salah has a highly unwarranted reputation of going down too easily, so much so that when he is actively fouled by an opposition player – he very rarely is awarded the free-kick (or worse) that is clearly warranted.
During our 2-0 victory away to Newcastle, the Egyptian King clearly got to the ball first before Dan Burn then decided to come through the back of him.

Our No.11 was lucky not to come out with an injury, as his ankle was planted between the legs of the onrushing defender who took the man long before connecting with the ball.
With a linesman just yards away and the referee also failing to award a foul, it’s becoming obvious that there must be an agenda against the 30-year-old.

40% of Liverpool’s summer loans failed – what’s happened to the club’s loan system?
He is kicked, pulled, grabbed and put in headlock with absolutely no protection. It’s clear that he is subject to bias by officials which is backed up by video evidence, such as this, and the statistics that show he gets far fewer calls than other forwards. The Club needs to raise this with the PL.
When Jack Grealish has spent 2 less seasons in the premier league and has played less than half the minutes you have and he has still accumulated more fouls than you know there’s an agenda against you.
Cannot believe how many times in this season he has been blatantly fouled. In the same game referees give a foul for the same incident (or less). It’s blatantly biased.
The assistant ref should be suspended from premiere league matches because if he could not see that was a blatant foul then he needs to go to specsavers Or was he relying on var to do his job for him .
I do hope he is brought to task over this incident.
