His drop off has been sharp however and he's only scored twice in eight Premier League outings this term.Salah has always been praised for his dedication to his body, often sharing pictures of midnight recovery sessions, and Neville insists he could play for years based on his body, but his technical skills are evading him as he referenced a poor miss on Sunday.He said on his podcast: "There are questions being asked about him, whether it's his age, whether it's one season too many.

But crazy things like the ball comes to the back post... his technique on his kicking and his crossing, that's the thing that looks well off."There were a couple of moments today at the back post where you're thinking, 'that's not Mo Salah'. That's just his technique.

Mo Salah could probably play until he's 52 and have good technique, so that's the bit that's surprising me, the technical bit."Salah no longer retains the untouchable status he once did. The Egyptian has been freed of defensive responsibilities as he's got older, but that is hurting the team right now.The Ex-Liverpool plater turned pundit claimed: "I don't think Mo Salah's in any position to complain if he was left out of one of the next two away games."Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
