The Reds’ season-opening loss at home against Nuno Espirito Santo’s Tricky Trees resulted in their first points being surrendered.

Arne Slot’s team was clearly the favorite to win, but they were unable to take advantage of any opportunities until Callum Hudson-Odoi’s goal in the 72nd minute cemented the outcome.

And although none of Liverpool’s players stood out today, Salah was criticised more than his teammates.

Winger Mo Salah, who enjoyed a fantastic game against Manchester United last time out, failed to replicate his last performance today. The Egyptian superstar dropped a disappointing performance with his contributions non-existent.

Mohamed really hasn’t played well tonight, and in the 76th minute he tried to take a shot from an acute angle instead of crossing the ball. After this, Liverpool fans seem to have lost their patience with Salah:

The first person said: “We love Mo Salah but some of his decision-making in the final third has been awful this afternoon”

The second fans continue: “Salah you have three men at the back post and you’re taking a shot from that angle…”

Another one express: “This has been one of his worst games by far, he’s being too selfish!”

The fourth comments: “He needed to be subbed off a long time ago. Luckily for him we didn’t have a replacement”

Speaking about Salah after the game’s final whistle, former Crystal Palace defender and Premier Sports pundit, Damien Delaney, highlighted the 32-year-old’s lack of quality in the final third.

“His decision-making was poor today,” he said while reviewing the winger’s highlights.

“Coming inside, couple of misplaced passes, that package [of highlights] could have gone on for another 30 seconds such was the regularity of him giving the ball away.”

Salah is in the final year of his contract with Liverpool. Failure to reach an agreement to extend his terms will see the forward eligible to discuss a pre-contract with clubs outside of England from January.

He remains heavily linked with a lucrative and high-profile transfer to the Saudi Pro League.
