The whole team was sh*te, you’re too hard on one of our greatest ever players
Agree no one was particularly playing well, but being one of our greatest players ever doesn't erase the fact he sucked ass for a month, and is particularly hurtful on offense when we center it around him more than anyone else.
Today's 2nd goal is a good example of how we set up offensively around Salah and the importance of him taking his chances. He gets to stand by or near the center line ready for the counter and scored an amazing goal. 10 days ago he probably misses it and the game could have ended very differently. That today he was back to his scoring/normal self, which he started to show against Utd in the FA cup, and that we started to look much more lively on offense again is no coincidence.
Everyone was busy bitching about Firmino and a CB, but you can put god in defense but if you don't score goals the best you're going to get is a draw.
