Liverpool's Mo Salah struggles on his return to Chelsea last weekend

THE jeers that greeted Mo Salah on his latest return to former club Chelsea on Saturday were nothing new to the Liverpool winger.

But for arguably the first time in his illustrious Anfield career, the Egyptian is now facing genuine questions about his place in the team.

A blunt showing at Stamford Bridge was the latest in a series of hugely underwhelming displays.

It isn't that the 33-year-old has stopped producing reasonable numbers, having registered three goals and three assists in 10 appearances this term.

Indeed, his tally of four goal contributions in seven Premier League games is bettered by only six players.

But perhaps the most alarming statistic from the weekend was that Salah didn't complete a successful dribble or go past a player once - and had the fewest touches of any outfield player who played 90 minutes.
