Mohamed Salah didn't have the most memorable of Chelsea careers, but he's been doing a lot better in Serie A.
The Egyptian winger was a fixture in the Fiorentina first-team during a loan spell, before moving permanently to Roma over the summer. He scored his fifth goal of the season in a 2-1 against the Viola, but his afternoon ended prematurely in rather strange circumstances. https://twitter.com/Zonal_Marking/status/658355872297537542 Those at the game have claimed Salah told the referee to "f**k off" within seconds of going into the book. It seems like a fairly natural reaction to us - perhaps referees in Italy are less used to that kind of language. If it was a hard-and-fast rule in England then there are a few players who would never last the whole 90 minutes. For now, let's just watch his goal. It was a good one. https://twitter.com/btsportfootball/status/658333583522697216Explore more on these topics:
