I was gutted that his goal got disallowed the other night because I feel like something is bugging him these past couples of games. Even when he scored the goal he celebrated it with a bit less energy than he usually does.
Some people are blowing it out of proportions, but I wouldn't say he looks totally normal. Something is bugging him and IMO it has much more to do with the Egyptian FA problem than anything else. One of the FA board members went as far as threatening his family (his mom), saying something along the lines of ''Salah is in England, but his mother is still in Egypt''
He played the WC post Ramos-injury and scored 2 goals in two games. Scored another two and assisted a couple in his last game with Egypt and scored two and assisted another with us (LFC). His physical side seems to be okay, its just his usual demeanor that seems to be a tad too gray. He's frustrated and it makes him less sharp than usual.
One thing I noticed is how he gets frustrated and throws his arms in the air at every missed chance. He is usually always smiling even when he misses a chance and does that little stop-jump thing where he starts running again getting ready to go for another one after he misses a goal or pass.
I don't know what is frustrating him these days, but I think Klopp and the staff should have a talk with him just to explain to him one way or another that its okay and he can relax and just get out there and enjoy the game.
