That s why Salah is not replaced! Solitude? He has 2 goals and 1 assist in 4 games.

Share the latest article by online media competitive (TA) team reporter Pierce: "This is why you don't replace Salah." The following is the translation:
With his left foot, all the frustration of Liverpool's 94 minutes before the first 94 minutes of the Tefmore Stadium were thrown behind.
Salah jumped happily in front of the ecstatic visiting fans, and was then surrounded by his teammates. No matter how many changes are there in Liverpool, its core is consistent. Once again, the Egyptian attacker was immersed in the glory of becoming the team's winning hero.
After Hannibal blocked Flynnon's cross in the last moment of injury time, Salah remained calm and shot the last-minute penalty through Dublafka's ten fingers.
This is his 188th Premier League goal, which makes him surpass Andy Cole and ranks fourth in the Premier League all-time scorer list.
"We will never give up," Salah told Sky Sports, "we are just trying to push our limits."
Liverpool started the season perfectly and became the first team in Premier League history to win in this way with their winning goal in the last 10 minutes of the game.
Liverpool's last nine winning goals in the Premier League that were 90 minutes or later, six were either scored by Salah or assisted by him. No wonder Slot made a substitution adjustment but chose to keep him on the court as he was increasingly eager to break through the opponent's defense line on Sunday (September 14).
Salah had a difficult afternoon. He made repeated mistakes in touch, and because of the advanced Burnley's deep return to defense and heavy troops, he had almost no room to display. He won only 1 of 6 confrontations and did not shoot once before standing on the penalty spot.
Slott did not replace Salah when Flynnon came on the court at the end of the game, but replaced defender Connat and made a desperate bet. Liverpool actually ranked five forward formations of Ngumoha, Garkepo, Salah, Chiesa and Flynnon at the end of the game.
With an 81% possession rate, 27-3 shots and 55-2 touches in the opponent's penalty area, Salah finally ensured that the defending champion's dominance was rewarded. Luck ultimately favored the brave, although Liverpool created difficulties for itself due to lack of quality in the offensive third division.
"I have almost every substitution option when you need to score and things aren't going well," Slot said. "End of the day, you always go back to a point: 'I don't want to leave the court with a draw and regret not having all the attackers, all the players who can score'. In another game, you may wonder if it's worth the risk, but against a team with 11 players in their 18-yard penalty area, I don't think it's a big risk."
"As for replacing Salah, if you need a goal, this may happen this season or next season, but it may not happen often."
Salah's form has been a topic of discussion this season. He didn't start as stunning as last August, when he contributed 3 goals and 3 assists in Liverpool's first four games, radiating.
That laid the foundation for him to break a series of records and win the Premier League Golden Boot (29 goals) and assists (18 times). He deserves to be awarded the Best Player by the Association of Journalists and the Professional Players.
The heroic performances also won him a new contract with a weekly salary of about £400,000 plus bonus. With Salah turning 33 in June, critics are ready to grab any evidence to prove that he is finally starting to fall. After all, he cannot resist the erosion of time forever.
Liverpool also focuses on the future when restructuring the offensive line this summer. Isaac is 25 years old, Ekitic is 23 years old, and Wiltz is 22 years old. Flynnon, who is expected to be a substitute on the right when Salah left the team in December for the African Cup of Nations, is only 24 years old.
Reducing dependence on Salah is crucial, especially when he will be out of such a critical period. In the 2024-25 season, Salah scored an astonishing 55% of his 86 goals in Liverpool League.
Isaac was not on the roster against Burnley, as Slott believes he would benefit more from a "hard, high-intensity" training in Kirkby on Saturday, followed by a recovery day training Sunday. The Swedish international is expected to make his debut in the Champions League match against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night.
When Isaac's physical condition meets the game requirements and Wiltz fully adapts to the new environment, Liverpool should have multiple players who can decide the game, but Salah's importance is still significant.
Yes, he didn't shine as brightly as he could in the first month of the season, but he scored a goal to secure the victory over Bournemouth in the opening game, assisted Ngumoha to win Newcastle United at St. James Park and then scored that decisive penalty at Tefmore Stadium. 2 goals and 1 assist in 4 games, what a "crisis" is this?
In addition, he failed to fully perform in his performance, and there were also excusable situations. Salah, who has been accustomed to cooperating with Arnold on the right side of Liverpool for many years, has partnered with five different right backs in front of him this season. Flynnon, Endo Hok, Gomez, Bradley and Sobosloy all appeared in that position.
coupled with the changes in Liverpool's offensive system dynamics, as Ekitic occupies the middle and the addition of the new No. 10 Wiltz. The tacit understanding between them will grow as the number of matches together increases.
"We have several new players in our starting lineup. They need time to adapt to the way we play," Salah told Sky Sports after the game. "We try to make them comfortable. Isaac was here last week, and he will be on the team. We are working on finding a balance. ”
Burnley is a bit like a nemesis for Salah. Sunday was just the second goal he scored against Burnley in 11 career. He was too powerful and missed in passing, and he sometimes seemed irritated, but as he often did, he was the last person to laugh.
