Liverpool’s Alexander-Arnold defends Mohamed Salah over ‘unfair’ criticism

Liverpool's Alexander-Arnold defends Mohamed Salah over criticism

Trent Alexander-Arnold has defended Mohamed Salah after a string of recent declines he made.

The Egyptian had an impressive first half of the 2021/22 season and looked set to break scoring records in the Premier League.

However, Salah has now scored only one goal in his last 10 games for Liverpool in all competitions.

With Liverpool vying on three fronts at the end of the season, their best player’s lack of both goals and assists is not what Liverpool want.

Despite this, Alexander Arnold moved to defend Salah in a recent interview:

“I think it’s unfair. The levels he got too, he’s kind of a victim of his own success,” Trent She said.

“He’s still a top scorer, he’s behind me in terms of assists and people say he’s giving a bad performance?! He’s almost the top scorer in the Champions League too.

“What he’s done for us over the past five seasons has been fantastic. Look, it’s unfair for people to say he’s going through a bad patch.” We all think he’s going to score goals for us. It’s only a matter of time before he puts it in the net again.”

liverpool vs manchester united match

Salah’s next opportunity comes to end the drought he suffers from in scoring goals on Tuesday night against Manchester United.

The two sides have a historic rivalry, but Liverpool are expected to easily overtake United this week.

Man United put an end to their poor streak by claiming a win last weekend. However, the fact that they only beat champions Norwich won’t fill the Red Devils fans with confidence ahead of facing Liverpool.
