Made Shaw look world class. Seems defenders have found the way to play him. 

Or maybe he has had a drop off in form.

I think a change of formation might be good for everybody and hopefully reignite the dynamic to our play.

4-2-3-1 for a consistent set of games. Allow the front four to be switching places more often and create overloads.

Shaw is a very decent one vs one defender, he gets tight and he's quick and strong.  The way to beat that is to play round him (which is tricky given his size), but our creativity in midfield is really lacking.

Klopp tried it when he first came here because it was his go-to at Dortmund, and we've gone back to it a few times but it's never really clicked for us.  You need a proper target man up top to get the best out of it.

He seems to have lost his ability to beat a player. If played in behind where he is able to run onto the pass and score, he is electric still, but we cant do that when the majority of teams sit deep.

When faced with a 1v1 or when he picks the ball up out wide and runs into the box, in the majority of situations he just runs at the defender and it's really easy to defend against.

It breaks down the attack time and time again - it's not a new thing though, its been happening for around 12-18 months
We’ll still finish in top four - and they won’t. You can quote me on this in May.

Players are allowed to man handle Salah, in fact it is open season. Yet in spite of all that he has 13 goals in the league and is well on course to hit 20 yet again in the league. He is having a dip in form along with many of his team mates. He will soon be bursting past players and doing what he does better than anyone else in the team.

Very much doubt it, he is our best attacker.

There is a chance we could be dragging all contract talks a bit because as the financial situation becomes clearer, we can get an extension with a reduced amount.

I think he's probably off in the summer. Firstly because that interview and the press speculation feels like the early days of a transfer saga, and secondly because he looks the least settled of the front three right now and all three are coming up to two years left on their contracts. Giving a 29 year old a big, lengthy contract when their numbers have dropped for the last two years is something Arsenal would do, it's not something a well-run club does. And going by his body language, he doesn't look as relaxed as he did a couple of years ago, Perhaps he feels like he could do with a new challenge.

In a wider sense however, the club is going to have to make some tough decisions with contracts and sales soon. Virg, Fabinho, Hendo, Shaq, Keita, Ox and the front three are all coming up to two years left this summer, and all of them bar Keita are going to be around the 29-31 mark when their current contracts expire in 2023. An extension will take them to the 32-34 mark with sizeable wages and spiralling resale value.

You can't renew all of them, otherwise you're left with a team that's aged together, like Leeds in the mid-70's, us in the early 90's or the Mancs when Fergie left (or Barcelona last summer). And no matter how dominant a club are, a team in that bracket can fall off quickly if they rely on a lot of older players. That may be exacrebated considering the intense pressing style Klopp favours. I'm not saying Salah is out the door necessarily, but some players will be for sure and almost certainly at least one of the regular frontmen.

Rubbish. How does he look the less settled when he is the best performing out the three, unless you’re privy to personal information we all don’t know about?

Needs to be played more centrally for a bit I think.  He isn't getting into the box anywhere near enough and is being left with far too much to do by himself out on the right wing.  He may as well be doubled up on and manhandled in the box rather than out on the touchline.

Never heard so much rubbish spouted about a player when he has a bit of a dip.

Saw Don Hutchinson on ESPN earlier saying Liverpool have "carried Salah for a month". That's right. We#re carrying the top scorer in the league.

It's true though, Liverpool had carried him for half a season now. I mean, he's only leading the top PL scorer chart, it's not like he scored twice as much as the next guy. Poor scared sulking Salah...

😜 In all seriousness, just show him the highlights reel currently playing on LFCTV. It demonstrates to me just how significantly his form has dipped - and how lacking in the aggressiveness of his game when in his pomp.

It may well be instructions, though. He seems to be playing deeper and taking up positions further from goal, and being more cautious and taking fewer risks. But then so does everyone, which might suggest a more cautious overall approach to counteract the defensive and midfield fralities.

And he seems to be a yard further behind at any given moment, less likely to be present to pounce on Robbo's crosses or balls across the face of goal. I don't know; players don't suddenly become bad overnight or stop doing what used to work, though fans love to claim so. It usually signals a tactical or personnel change, or physcial (fitness) issues.

This is exactly how I see it. Our weakness in defence has the whole team playing further back. Full backs (particularly Trent) spending less time going forward and that has a knock on effect at the business end. Fabinho has been amazing, but he isn't Virgil. Or Gomez for that matter.
I think the same, can't stand him, but if you could have a £1million pound cheque or steve bruces head hollowed out and filled with pound coins which would you have?

I don't understand these 'body language experts', do they ever look at his face? He is the happiest looking player we have, his smile is just brilliant after a move even if it breaks down. The guy is having a dip in form, along with a lot of others, but a dip in form for the best forward in the league is most noticeable I guess.

“If you ask, I say I want to stay here as long as I can, but as I have said before, it is in the hands of the club.”
A bit of perspective.
These types of words can be said by any player in any era. Loyal or disloyal. Happy or unhappy. Nothing in them.
Probably would have been the same words that Ian Rush (club legend) would've said in private at the time he left us for Juve.
He also cam back to us after Juve.

He gets manhandled every single game and gets nothing from it. The one time he went down after being grappled, against Newcastle, he was slaughtered by the usual reactionary sensationalist mob because anti-Liverpool propaganda gets them the most attention from the braindead neutrals. He's a brilliant footballer playing for Liverpool, people hate Liverpool, therefore any opportunity to stir up some controversy is firmly grasped with both hands.

Just a selection of headlines about a simply brilliant footballer from the English press:

- Mo Salah accused of diving AGAIN
- Mohamed Salah’s dive showed game Nobby Stiles loved is disappearing
- Mohamed Salah cheating eases Liverpool to win
- Liverpool's Mohamed Salah Branded A Cheat For Shocking Dive
- Gary Neville explains why Mo Salah will leave Liverpool

And my personal favourite was a tweet from Sky Sports at the beginning of 2018/19 (a season where he recorded 27 goals & 12 assists) titled "WHAT'S UP WITH SALAH??" because he hadn't scored for a couple of games. Article then went on to cite rumours of his impending departure.

And his alleged "feud" with Mane - Don't even get me started on Sky shoving their cameras in their faces whenever the other elects to shoot rather than pass.

And my personal favourite was a tweet from Sky Sports at the beginning of 2018/19 (a season where he recorded 27 goals & 12 assists) titled "WHAT'S UP WITH SALAH??" because he hadn't scored for a couple of games. Article then went on to cite rumours of his impending departure.

And his alleged "feud" with Mane - Don't even get me started on Sky shoving their cameras in their faces whenever the other elects to shoot rather than pass.

Bang on.

He gets manhandled every single game and gets nothing from it. The one time he went down after being grappled, against Newcastle, he was slaughtered by the usual reactionary sensationalist mob because anti-Liverpool propaganda gets them the most attention from the braindead neutrals. He's a brilliant footballer playing for Liverpool, people hate Liverpool, therefore any opportunity to stir up some controversy is firmly grasped with both hands.

Just a selection of headlines about a simply brilliant footballer from the English press:

- Mo Salah accused of diving AGAIN
- Mohamed Salah’s dive showed game Nobby Stiles loved is disappearing
- Mohamed Salah cheating eases Liverpool to win
- Liverpool's Mohamed Salah Branded A Cheat For Shocking Dive
- Gary Neville explains why Mo Salah will leave Liverpool
