Something looks to be really wrong with Salah, I mean he peaked in his first season and has been dropping even since. His form in pre season doesnt even guarantee him a place in the starting line up and I can only hope that the motivation is not there in pre-season and he will pick up himself as from the next game. But worrying.

But worrying. 94 goals of which 72 in league play across the 3 seasons which he has twice topped the league in goals, and 3 times top scorer for the club. I wouldn't bet against him being a top scorer for the 4th continuous season so I don't know what else the man can do? He is surrounded by 3-4 players every time he gets the ball. Firmino for all his wonderful play should be on 20 goals plus, 9 goals last season in the league is simply not good enough. We should have purchased Werner and upgraded that position.

Salah is a strange forward.
He looks like he has no touch. Kinda has a lot of bad games. Misses tons of chances. Looks selfish. Has no right foot.
Yet still scores 20+ and gets 10 assists each year.
Mad.

I said he has been dropping in performance since his stellar season, last season he was nowhere near his first season especially since coming back from the lockdown, a form that continued in the preseason. Even young Eliott played better than him yesterday.

He was brilliant today, scored a fantastic goal either side of his penalties, second 1 a lot of pressure to win the game and complete his hatrick. Salah also became the 2nd fastest player in club history to score 50 Anfield goals. Firmino was absolutely wasteful today and his passing was so poor in very clear decisive moments where we could of had a better cushion, Mane missed a few but he was quiet.
Salah is taking for granted.

Yeah, good performance from Salah, looked dangerous and was involved in the game, tracking back and support TAA who had a poor game, real pressure last minute penalty, good to see him hitting the ground running.

Yeah, Salah can be selfish sometimes. I think he's a better player after he scores his first goal in a game. He becomes more of a team player. Almost like the burden of 'having to score' is lifted and he stops over-playing. Regardless, the stats dont lie. He's been consistently our top scorer and top assister for 3 years. People who speak disparagingly about him, are just simply, objectively, wrong. He's our best player and he's in the top 5 best players in the world.
