Deeney's take is horrible anyone with any appreciation for the game can realize that just like Alan does in this interview. Watford was extremely toxic during Deeney's time at the club because of players like him who held too much power over the managers. They knew they couldn't get rid of all the players but could get rid of the manager and used that to their advantage, hence why they went through Managers like crisp bags.

His technique is up there with the best. Has a first touch as good as it gets. Can carry a ball with speed as good as anybody. Close control, feints, change direction with speed is better than anyone behind Messi. Finishing up there with the very best and he isn’t even a striker. Assists and playmaking, eye for a pass, crossing up there with the best. IQ, making runs, understanding roles, pressing up there with the very best. Work rate, defensive plays, counter attack up there with the very best (for attacking player) There is no doubt Salah has the complete package and each skill set is at the very top. WORLD CLASS. ONE OF THE BEST TO EVER DO IT
