I've visioned Liverpool to become one of the favourite to reach good positions in Europa League. Liverpool headcoach, Jurgen Klopp have implemented one of the best collective game pattern in Anfield and it have helped them achieve significant titles over these past years. Checking the club's lineup, they have efficient players that can enchanced the performance of the club and bring out the best among the best performance. Liverpool can survived without Mohammed Salah in the squad, they play together and the absence of Salah will not pose any threat.
But Salah plays an important role in every Liverpool victory. He can do many things like score goals and provide assists. I see that Salah is also a player who can create opportunities for other players because the opposing defender will mark him so that other players can move more freely. I think Liverpool will struggle without Salah. Their next matches are against Bournemouth and Fulhan in the EPL so we can see how Liverpool play without Salah in the starting XI.
I can't really say if liverpool was weak when it played without salah but we have seen that how jota played as a right wing and he has been performing quite well in the previous game. I can't deny that missing salah was a big blow for the club.
It's caused by salah just like a hero who is always helping the club to gather three points since it was struggling at the bottom place. Salah is the most important player owned by klopp and that's why he was really shocked after he has heard that salah was injured.
It was so annoying to see liverpool is going to miss salah soon. This is the problem that needs to be solved by the club. Jota could filling the position but his performance was no that good.
Klopp needs to find a good solution for this and the secondary player was not as good as jota or salah. Liverpool must put jota as right wing again in the upcoming game against bournemouth. It's caused by liverpool has no good option other than jota.
Im sure klopp is confusing about this right now and iiverpool may be buying a new right wing to be a backup for salah soon. Missing him was a disaster for the club.
There was big concern when Liverpool played without Salah up front, I think Egypt also felt the same way, and are currently trying to qualify for the next stage of AFCON. Salah injury has changed many things, because his role in the team is often the difference in the outcome of a match, but especially for the Europa League it doesn't seem like it will have a big impact, because the round of 16 matches will start on March 7, where Salah will likely be available again. However, if Salah still has to be sidelined due to a long injury, then it will be a serious blow for the Reds. The real worry is in domestic competition, where Klopp has had to struggle to get through several matches without Salah presence.
So far there is no certainty or definite date when Salah will be able to appear again, but Liverpool has updated information regarding its star on the club official website, which confirms that Salah will miss Egypt next two matches. However, the Reds did not mention when Salah would return to Anfield, but what is certain is that for some of their matches in the EPL, we will not see Salah in Klopp starting XI. But I think Liverpool will be fine, even though on the one hand they are having difficulty winning.
