Mo Salah has to find his own mojo without Trent
The Mercury
|October 23, 2025
ONE plus one makes 11.
The proverb, of course, refers to when two individuals or entities work together, they create something greater than the sum of their parts. It further suggests that two people together are more powerful than when they are apart.
Unfortunately for Liverpool Football Club, this cannot be more true with their No 11 Mohamed Salah struggling without his other one, Trent Alexander-Arnold, who ran out his contract before leaving for Spanish giants Real Madrid in the summer.
Salah has endured a quiet start to the 2025/26 season with just two goals and two assists in eight Premier League appearances. It's his lowest attacking metrics since joining the club in 2017.
Crucially, the swagger and confidence that has made the Egyptian king into a cult hero at Anfield since his arrival eight seasons ago has been missing.
The moment of truth arrived on Sunday. Liverpool were trailing arch-rivals Manchester United with five minutes remaining.
