World cup coming up, needs a new contract from someone, wasn't over played last season.
His stats per minute were actually very good last season also fwiw
SIGH.
Its called injuries.
He's got a full preseason and a few games this year so he's a bit better than he was. hardly rocket science that if you are in and out with injuries you are never match sharp.
as above, Robbing is right. the few games he played last season between injuries were not that bad. its just that when you have been able to train and work it does help a fella.
He doesn't press like he used to and he probably can't now with the Klopp miles. So he has re-invented himself where he is running/pressing less and spending more time in the box.
I can't remember who mentioned it yesterday but those 65 plus games other played he was not one of them so he does appear fresh.
Big players generally step up sooner or later...hes stepped up.

Yeah and like the others say he fell down the pecking order a bit and has had injuries, also WC coming soon so he probably rolled up his socks and has rediscovered some of his older form.
I just hope its not a purple patch and also hope Salah continues his resurgence too!
last year of contract, world cup year.
Amazing what last year of a contract can do.
Simple. Hes playing further forward and Salah is playing wider and deeper.

Playing as a forward instead of defensive mid probably helps.

Glad someone else spotted it.

He got a few injuries and then struggled to get into the team getting the games he needed to get back ok track. With Mane going and Nunez getting the three match ban, he got a run of games and is all the better for it. I don't think he lost his quality, just nothing went for him. Having an in form Firmino could be massive for us.
