Arne Slot says the last thing he is worried about right now is the form of off-colour Mohamed Salah – and the Liverpool boss has backed his talisman to return to his best soon.
The champions go to Brentford on Saturday with the Egyptian on a six-match run without a goal – they are also sweating on the fitness of £125million man Alexander Isak – and Salah has been out of sorts so far this season.
He registered 57 goals and assists in an outstanding campaign last year but has managed just six so far this term, which is one of many reasons for the champions’ recent form in the last month with four defeats in their recent five games.
