Jamie Carragher blames one Liverpool star for the team poor form..! “He was the reason we couldn’t win against small club like Crystal Palace at home 💔 I think we have to agree on this with Jamie 🤨
In spite of commanding possession, passing precision, and numerous shots on target, Liverpool couldn’t capitalize on their opportunities and succumbed to a goal by Palace’s Eberechi Eze at Anfield.
Both sides had chances, with Palace’s goalkeeper Dean Henderson making crucial saves to deny Liverpool’s attacks.
Despite being a consistent performer for Liverpool, Salah struggled to leave his mark, drawing criticism from Carragher and fans alike.
Carragher highlighted Salah’s decline in form since his return from injury at AFCON 2024, remarking, “Mo Salah hasn’t hit top form for a few weeks now.”
Adding to Liverpool’s troubles, young right-back Conor Bradley sustained an injury and had to be replaced, disrupting their rhythm.
Trent Alexander-Arnold substituted Bradley, momentarily unsettling Liverpool’s defensive solidity, which contributed to their struggles against Palace’s resilient defense.
Despite Liverpool’s dominance in possession, pass accuracy, and shots on target, they couldn’t find the back of the net, underscoring the significance of clinical finishing.
With the title race intensifying, Liverpool must enhance their attacking efficiency to sustain their hopes of lifting silverware.
Liverpool maintained the upper hand in possession (70%), pass accuracy (83%–68%), and shots on target (6–5) but failed to convert.
Mo Salah’s season stats:
⚽ 23 goals
🅰️ 13 assists
Absolutely remarkable 😮💨
