Mo might well believe he is the best in his own head, but the like of both Ronaldo's, Messi, Ronaldinho, Suarez, peak Bale, Gerrard, De Bruyne, Torres etc etc etc played at the levels Mo does at his best as standard and produced absolute brilliance well above his level in numerous games every season, Mo produces those moments once or twice a season if we're lucky, the lads he 'thinks' he's on the same level as do it in several games a season and did it in several games a season over their entire careers
Mo does brilliantly because of how he is supported to play and who he has supporting him, he failed at CHelsea for a reason, his goal record before coming to LFC was 1 in 4 for a reason, we were the only club knocking on Roma's door for a reason
It really isn't beyond the realms of possibility that we can recruit another player the same way with the pace in behind and who can be coached to make the runs in behind who can be as successful and potentially be an even bigger influence as we could land a player who has the desired physical attributes for the role, but who is a better dribbler and more 2 footed, Mo running at defences really doesn't strike fear into them, they know what to do with him now and most do it really well, if he were available and fully recovered, Chiesa would be a better option for us at RFWD even if Mo wasn't being a dick
