Liverpool as a team have not met their usual standards this season, and for most fans no player represents that drop off better than Mohamed Salah.
The Egyptian was perhaps playing better than he ever had 12 months ago, scoring five goals in his opening six Premier League games as the Reds made a confident start to the 2021-22 campaign.
But fast forward to this autumn and Salah's numbers read two goals from six top-flight matches - to go with two assists registered in the victory against Newcastle - and just five shots on target.
