Alan Shearer Echoes Liverpool Fans’ Concerns on Mohamed Salah Performance

Alan Shearer has voiced concern over Mohamed Salah’s recent form following Liverpool’s heavy FA Cup defeat to Manchester City at the Etihad. The former striker spoke on The Rest Is Football after a match that offered little cheer for Reds supporters.

Match details and substitutions

Liverpool lost 4-0 to Manchester City in the FA Cup. Salah missed several chances. He then saw a penalty saved shortly after the hour mark.

Manager Arne Slot withdrew Salah with 12 minutes remaining. Many Liverpool fans left the stadium before full time.

Shearer’s reaction

Alan Shearer echoed Liverpool fans’ concerns about Mohamed Salah’s performance. He said the forward looked a long way from his best.

Shearer noted a disjointed first-half moment and the later penalty miss. He added it was hard to watch a player of Salah’s standing struggle so visibly.

Contract and season context

Salah, 33, announced last month that he will leave Liverpool this summer. He agreed to end his contract early, with the final year waived.

He has scored 10 goals in 35 appearances this season. That marks his lowest goal return since joining Liverpool in 2017.

Remaining fixtures

Salah is expected to feature in at least nine more matches before departing Anfield. Liverpool travel to France next for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Paris Saint-Germain.
