**Salah's Struggles Linked to Alexander-Arnold's Exit** Arne Slot has indicated that the departure of Trent Alexander-Arnold may be contributing to Mohamed Salah's recent difficulties at Liverpool. Salah, who secured a lucrative new contract last season, is currently experiencing a six-match goal drought. His struggles were highlighted when he was left out of the starting line-up for the match against Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday. Following this, Salah appeared to remove all mentions of Liverpool from his social media profiles on X and Instagram.

Slot commented on Salah's form, stating, "It has been a difficult moment for all of us. No one is used to losing, for all the players that have played here for so many years, and even for the new players as well because we started the season with seven wins."

He further speculated, "Maybe his whole Liverpool player he played with Trent, so it could (be that). But he's been in promising positions often enough to score goals, maybe with Trent even more. But in general, if you have quite a few changes in the summer you have to find new connections. Mo is no exception to this."

This season, Salah has managed to score only one goal from open play in the Premier League, which occurred during the opening match against Bournemouth, where Liverpool won 4-2. His goal-scoring difficulties were evident during a four-match losing streak, which finally ended in Frankfurt. Salah notably missed significant opportunities to equalise in matches against Chelsea and Manchester United.

In a recent match against Manchester United, as Liverpool sought a late equaliser in a 2-1 defeat, Slot substituted Salah. The winger was then benched for the Champions League match on Wednesday, where Liverpool secured a 5-1 victory, only featuring for 18 minutes as a second-half substitute.

Liverpool fans and analysts will be watching closely to see if Salah can regain his form as the season progresses.

Updates on Salah's performance and Liverpool's season will continue to be provided as the situation develops.
