Former Liverpool defender Glen Johnson has suggested that the main reason behind the Reds’ poor start to the season has been forward Mohamed Salah.
The Merseyside outfit have endured a miserable first few months of the campaign having won just four out of their opening 11 Premier League games - their 1-0 defeat at the hands of lowly Nottingham Forest the latest indiscretion.
That indifferent form leaves them eighth in the current standings and already 12 points behind current table-toppers Arsenal. Many have been attempting to find a reason behind the Reds’ collective fall-off but former right-back Johnson believes Salah is one of the prime causes.
