The Graham Cummins column: Top players can be jealous of teammates

Walk alone: It’s every man for himself in football, says Graham Cummins, given the competition for a place on any good team.
Had it been a different teammate, Salah might have passed the ball, but he didn’t want Mane getting the headlines. Incidents like that happen all the time in football.

Tom Brewitt was a former teammate of Dundalk’s defender, Daniel Cleary, and Brewitt admitted that he was ready to do “whatever it took” for him to play in a game for Liverpool, ahead of Cleary.
