'A crisis involving Salah is a crisis for the nation': Egypt backs 'golden child'

[TrailCrafterTrek]

lol @ all the drama 4 salah!!! i think its awesome dat egpytans are so hyped 2 b behind him no matter what he says or does. its like, he's their golden child lol they need a hero & salah delivers on an intl stage. ppl r sayin hes overrated but i think thats bc british media havent given him the props he deserves. egpytians r all about dat football culture 4 life

anywayz, i'm glad salah isnt afraid 2 speak his mind even if its not what u wnt 2 hear. he's got a point 2 b angry @ arne slot & edwards 4 tryna deflect attention from salahs comments lol & who can blame him? they r just tryna stir up drama 4 their own gain.

i'm hyped 2 see salah lead egpyt 2 afcon victory he's gonna be the spark that ignites their team & leads them 2 greatness. his fans r behind him all the way, even when hes makin headlines 4 not sayin what ppl wnt 2 hear

I mean, what does this say about our society? We're so invested in these athletes, to the point where their words can spark national debates . It's like, we need someone to rally behind, you know? And for Egyptians, Salah is that person – it's almost like a badge of honor . But what does this say about us as a culture? That we're so desperate for excitement and drama in our lives that we'll analyze every move, every word, of someone on the pitch .

And I love how the Egyptians aren't afraid to call out those who try to deflect attention from Salah's comments. It's like, if you're going to criticize someone, make sure you've got your facts straight . But at the same time, it shows that there's a level of camaraderie and unity among fans that's hard to ignore .

For me, though, this whole thing makes me think about how we define 'loyalty' in our society. Is it just about supporting someone because they're good at their job, or is it something more? Like, do we show loyalty to people who are flawed but still manage to inspire us . I guess that's a question for another time...

Salah is indeed the golden child . Egyptians can't get enough of him . But honestly, who needs critics when you've got 60-70% of Egyptian sports media eating out of the palm of your hand? Mido was low-key roasted by Salah for calling out Carragher tho
