Recently, Carragher talked about Liverpool winger Salah in his personal column.

Carragher wrote: "Salah's recent performance has caused concern, but his performance in his career has also sounded a warning to those who prematurely predicted his decline. Don't rush to dismiss Salah, because he has a habit of putting his critics to shame."

"Slott did not start Salah in the Champions League away game against Galatasaray, and when Salah started for Egypt mid-season, When playing for the national team, Liverpool must get used to being without him. Salah must start to accept the fact that he may not start every game after his return. This is not easy for such a high-profile world-class player. Sooner or later, Salah's time in Liverpool will end and the team will enter the era of Isaac and Wirtz, but don't bet that Salah will be replaced soon."
