Former Chelsea winger recieves one of the weirdest sendings-off you’ll see

You don't win friends with Salah

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.

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.
