Meanwhile, in one game, Szoboszlai was moved into midfield at the break.<\/p>\n
The constant rotation isn\u2019t helping Salah as he tries to build new relationships on the pitch after eight years of stability alongside Alexander-Arnold. Each of the three right-backs brings different skills to the role and plays it in their own unique way.<\/p>\n
Liverpool\u2019s attack has been slightly more stable, but Salah still stands alongside new teammates he has to get used to in the frontline.<\/p>\n
A front three of Salah,\u00a0Hugo Ekitike\u00a0and\u00a0Cody Gakpo\u00a0has been Slot\u2019s preferred choice for most of the season, starting together six times. However, despite a promising start, the Frenchman is also still settling in at Anfield.<\/p>\n
The same applies to both Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz following their hefty transfers to Merseyside.<\/p>\n
Salah has already acknowledged this situation, having grown accustomed to consistency in Liverpool\u2019s attacking setup throughout his Anfield stint.<\/p>\n
The Egyptian formed one-third of the Reds\u2019 unquestioned frontline trio alongside Firmino and Mane, yet still shared the pitch for several seasons with squad players like Divock Origi and Takumi Minamino.<\/p>\n
Similarly, the late Diogo Jota was a long-term colleague, as were Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez before their summer exits.<\/p>\n
During a recent chat with the Men In Blazers podcast, Salah acknowledged it will require patience to develop understanding with his fresh teammates, using Ekitike as a case in point.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo far, I didn\u2019t figure the connections out yet,\u201d Salah candidly confessed. \u201cLike with Darwin or Lucho or the guys they used to play in front, or Diogo.<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew where to start with Diogo or Darwin. I know where to find them. I knew their game very well, but with Hugo, he\u2019s still new. Sometimes I need the ball in the field. Sometimes we need it in the space.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe try to figure that out, through the training sessions or like the videos. The manager shows us. So I will figure it out soon because also it\u2019s going to help my game to grow as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
Liverpool are working tirelessly behind the scenes at their training ground to build a strong rapport between their new-look attack.<\/p>\n
And Ekitike has now shed light on how Salah is going above and beyond to help him settle in, improve his game, and speed up the process.<\/p>\n View 3 ImagesHugo Ekitike has impressed with Liverpool since his move to the club(Image: Anadolu via Getty Images)<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s really good,\u201d he responded when quizzed by\u00a0BBC\u00a0Sport about playing alongside Salah. \u201cMo is a really cool guy.<\/p>\n \u201cHe is really open with me and is really good to talk too. He is great to play with. I was watching him on TV when he was scoring the goals and stuff but he is a really great athlete<\/p>\n \u201cYou can just improve yourself and learn from him. It is good to share the pitch with him and I hope we are going to score lots of goals and bring some wins to the team together.<\/p>\n \u201cHe is very cool. More cool than what I have seen on TV because sometimes you see straight face and stuff so I thought he was cold\u2026 someone who doesn\u2019t talk a lot.<\/p>\n \u201cHe is really open, like all of the guys here. They are really open and want me to adapt to the team.\u201d<\/p>\n Liverpool haven\u2019t been firing on all cylinders this season, but they\u2019re fully aware of it. Slot\u2019s revamped side is still finding its feet.<\/p>\n However, players like Salah and Ekitike are putting in the extra work off the pitch to ensure the Reds click into gear as soon as possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Mohamed Salah was back on the scoresheet on Wednesday, netting twice to help Egypt secure their place in the 2026 World Cup with a 3-0 win over Djibouti.
