Instead, Salah is a hidden weapon for when Liverpool launches their counter-attacks because Salah is one of the most dangerous players in transition in the Premier League.
Klopp left Slot with a batch of good players to inherit, and many of those players are capable of running seemingly the entire game.
The players who do this - most often Robertson - don't even want the ball during these runs, but do it to force the opposition backline back towards their own goal.
Importantly, by doing one-in-three, Liverpool players are able to save some energy and not completely break the system down by leaving one player exposed.
When you then add the aforementioned deep runs from Robertson to break the offside trap that can then allow for a ball into the feet of Diaz where he can then attack the space in front of him.
