Gary Neville has shared his thoughts on Mo Salah after Liverpool's 2-2 draw with West Ham.
The former Man United defender believes Salah needs a break, having driven this Liverpool side for the past seven years.
"I was at the Merseyside derby, and I've done a lot of Liverpool games recently and Salah's not at his level," said Neville. "He's been an amazing player and is an amazing player, but he was massively off it in the Merseyside derby.
"I mean, he didn't touch the ball in the first half. What was noticeable, he's right in front of me up against Mykolenko, I can't remember him getting the ball. I think we showed that he had about five to six touches after 30-odd minutes.
"He wasn't in the game, they weren't getting him in the game. But Mo Salah usually gets in the game.
"In the second-half when Ashley Young comes on and actually goes to the left back for Mykolenko, who picked up that knock, and you're thinking 'right, OK. Here we go. He'll fancy this, 1-0 down and Liverpool fighting to keep themselves in the title race. Local derby'.
"There was nothing from him.
"Mo Salah's just hit a brick wall. You've got be careful, there was a player out here [in the north London derby] called Son that I think hit a brick wall probably about 18 months ago, where he looked like he was gone and he was struggling.
"These players play so much football they play so consistently and Salah has been almost ever-present for like six or seven years. There just comes a point whereby you need a break."
