Many Liverpool players were criticized after the 2-1 defeat in Chelsea, with an individual producing “another disastrous performance” for the Reds.
Neville “absolutely useless” attack slap from Liverpool
The champions of the Premier League were brought back to reality, losing three times in a week and being defeated in time of time at Crystal Palace and Chelsea.
Thinking about the performance of Liverpool after Saturday’s match at Stamford Bridge, Sky Sports’ expertise, Gary Neville, did not retain his criticism from the attack, with various failures.
“I thought that after having marked, I was really disappointed with their level of performance. Many things were done with the defensive work of Liverpool and rightly, but that is not why they lost this match. They lost this match because in the last 15 to 20 minutes, their creative players, their players in the last half of the field, the players of the midfield and the attackers were absolutely useless.
“They gave the ball as you would not believe it. Gakpo, Salah, the waste. Wirtz, not knowing how to enter a match in the last 15 minutes when he was there for the catch and ended up scoring Caicedo. I thought their players before were terrible. Salah is sublime.
“How can you criticize the coherence, reliability and brilliance of him, but some of him today, when he enters inside and you think he should pass it or you think he should do something better with it, and his finish was poor.”
It was a worrying week for Liverpool, with too many players well below their best, and a Reds hero was castigated after his projection against the blues.
The Liverpool star slapped for “another disastrous performance”
Writing on X, Statman Dave criticized Mohamed Salah’s “saying” screen for Liverpool against Chelsea, the legend of the Reds having the fewest touches of any outdoor field player for the whole game.
The shape of Salah is a precise source of concern, the 33-year-old apparently no longer having the pace of blisters he has made, which facilitates the lateral rear in situations in head.
That said, the most disturbing aspect of its game is its general use of the ball, with too many passes and its horribly erratic Chelsea finish.
Salah has already overcome crises, but the fact that it is now well in the thirties means that the voices will only be strong when it comes to raft it.
It still has a huge quantity to offer to Liverpool, but if its performance does not improve immeasurably after the international break, it may be necessary to be authentic for it to potentially have passed its peak.
