Former Chelsea midfielder, who now frequently appears on football shows, John Obi Mikel emphasized the reasons why Liverpool and Mohamed Salah's form may have fallen.

The Nigerian football expert recalled the tragic death of Diogo Jota.

"I have heard that Mohamed Salah and Diogo Jota were very close. Since that incident, he doesn’t seem the same as before... he appears like a shadow of himself."

"For this reason, I would be very cautious in criticizing both Mo and the entire Liverpool team,” said J. Obi Mikel.
