DBasia.news – Egyptian wing forward Mohamed Salah has scored 20 goals in 38 matches this season for Liverpool. Even so, his performance has been declining lately.
Of the four matches run by the Egyptian player, he failed to register his name on the scoreboard. Salah has a chance to end the fasting of his goal against Everton. He often wasted his golden opportunity in the match, so the match also had to end with a 0-0 draw.
Seeing Salah continue to fail to score, also made him begin to get criticism. Because, when Jurgen Klopp’s squad only drew in the match titled Merseyside Derby, making the Reds have to lose the top position of the Premier League standings because Manchester City are now one point ahead of the deficit.
Responding to Salah’s problem which was dragging a goal, Klopp responded casually. This German coach gave praise to Mo Salah who has managed to break many records while in Liverpool uniform.
“Of course when you are an attacker, and you have the opportunity to score, you certainly want to be able to get the ball into the opponent’s goal,” said Klopp quoted from ESPN.
“But as a manager, I am used to players who don’t score consistently. Indeed that is the reality. One has a remarkable record. His goal also brings us to the top of the table,” he concluded.
In the 30th week of the Premier League competition, Jurgen Klopp’s side will play the match against Burnley on Sunday (10/3). After that, the Reds must refocus in the Champions League competition by playing the second leg against Bayern Munich on Thursday (14/3) early morning Western Indonesian Time.
