After one of the most disappointing weeks in his eight years at Anfield, there is good news mohammed salah is that Arne Slott Has not found his successor. The man who removed Salah from his usual berth liverpoolit’s on the right West Ham This was a short-term solution, not the face of a new formula.
this could be it Dominic Szoboszlai After being pressed into service in his fourth different role of the season on Sunday, he also wanted to be heard. Slot admitted that Salah was unhappy at being left out. But now the return to the team will be only temporary Africa Cup of Nations starting soon.
If Szoboszlai could be a Salah stand-in for different reasons – then, Slot said: “I don’t see Dominic as a right winger for a long-term future at this club. Dominic is a midfielder who can help us as a full-back or winger if needed. I don’t expect him to be in February and March and Dominic is playing every single game there.
“He’s more of a midfielder than a winger, but the good thing about him is that he can help me and us in multiple positions, if I need him in that position.” Sunday’s decision was due to Szoboszlai’s work rate. Salah’s reluctance to return did not go unnoticed and some opponents took advantage of it. Slott argued, “As we all know, Dominic runs for two runs and that was helpful in that game.”
As he realised, benching a player of the profile of Salah, or Alexander Isak, or Florian Wirtz, puts a certain level of scrutiny, not just on the manager. Cameras are trained on the advice anyway, but it is often to capture goals or goal celebrations. on sunday they Found them on the cushioned seats of the London StadiumNext to Andy Robertson.
Slot said, “It’s neither a good thing for the Liverpool fans nor for me, a player who has been very important for us – you want to see him on the pitch.” “I’d rather see Mo out on the field scoring goals and doing something special than having the cameras on him when he’s not in the game.”
Soon, Salah will not be at Liverpool games. The chances are he will be available for the first four more – Sunderland, Leeds, Inter Milan and Brighton forced absence of a few weeks“He has been very important for us for so many years, and he will be important for us in the coming days – because this is the day he is going to the African Cup,” [of Nations]Slott said.
Szoboszlai could again be an emergency winger during the Afcon. The more immediate question is whether he is before her? The diplomat in the slot stressed the importance of consultation. The manager who left him in for the must-win match will have to determine how many of those four he starts. Salah has scored only seven goals in his last 29 games for Liverpool, five in 18 appearances this season, but has long been defined by a determination to play every game.
He didn’t like being abandoned. Slot said, “It’s a fair assumption and a normal reaction to a player who is good enough to play for us, and I say that lightly because he has been excellent for this club for so many years and will continue to be for us in the future.” “Of course, a player is not happy that he is not playing. He is not the only player who is not happy that he is not starting, I can tell you, and that is normal.”
His response has been excellent both in training on Sunday and Monday, Slott said. The Dutchman claimed to be taken aback. Perhaps all he had to say was that Salah would excel again for Liverpool in the future; After all, he has 18 months left on a lucrative deal. And memories of last season, when Salah equaled the Premier League record with 47 goal involvements, scoring 29 and assisting 18, should be fresh enough to suggest he is finished.
And yet Sunday could have symbolized a change of power. Florian Wirtz’s best Premier League performance for Liverpool brought Alexander Isak’s first goal For them in the division. Each occurred without consultation. Not that Slott has any new strategy that involves Szoboszlai taking over from him. The Hungarian has been both a winger and a full-back at different points this season, but Slot said: “In the long-term future, we should see wingers playing as wingers, midfielders playing as midfielders and defenders playing as defenders.”
It remains to be seen whether the winger is a renaissance Salah or a true successor to Antoine Semenyo. But over the next four matches, the cameras will capture Salah, whether he is on the pitch or on the bench, scoring or watching, happy or unhappy.
