Rio Ferdinand doesn’t think that Liverpool should drop Mohamed Salah despite his recent poor form. The Egyptian King may have scored a few goals here and there, but by his usual standards, he’s been miles off the pace.

Rio Ferdinand questions why Liverpool fans want Mohamed Salah to be moved on There’s no hiding from the fact that Salah hasn’t been his usual self this season. And even though the Reds haven’t been in the best form recently, they’re still third in the Premier League table, with Ferdinand confused by some Liverpool fans not wanting anything to do with their star man anymore.“How long has Mo Salah been at Liverpool?

“You are nuts.”Mohamed Salah must continue to be a regular starter for Liverpool this seasonSalah may have had a few months where he’s not been at his best, but compared to some of the other options Liverpool have available to them, the Egyptian King still deserves a starting place. His finishing is among the best in the world, and once Salah gets used to how Alexander Isak and others, such as Florian Wirtz play, there’s no doubt in anyone’s mind that he’s going to come good once again.These things take time, and with the amount of change that Liverpool have been put through by Slot and Richard Hughes, it’s impressive that they even managed to string together a fair few wins at the start of the season.
