The Reds are mid-table in the Premier League; ten points off the top four and out of the title race

Reds fans are looking for the culprits for the crisis they are going through, as this has been one of the worst seasons in recent years, having them in the middle of the Premier League table with just 29 points. Among those being singled out is superstar Mohamed Salah who has not had a great season, as the Egyptian has slumped in his finishing.

Salah, who arrived at Anfield in 2017 for 42 million, signed a contract extension last summer for three more years and 300,000 pounds a week, being one of the best paid at the club, but this has also led him to be singled out by the fans, who have not seen the investment made by the African.

For some specialists such as Neil Jones of Goal, to point the finger of blame at Salah would be unfair, as his professionalism has always been on the pitch, as he has been one of the most involved players in The Pool. "Salah's motivation and professionalism is as strong as it has ever been, he still sets the standard in training," wrote the Goal correspondent.

<strong>Salah to blame?</strong>

In this 22/23 season Mo Salah has 18 goals for the Reds, including EFL Cup, FA Cup, Premier League, UEFA Champions League and Community Shield. The Pharaoh's last goal came on 7 January against Wolves, who, ironically, are The Pool's next opponents on Matchday 22 in the English Premier League.
