Liverpool's assistant manager, Pep Lijnders, has dismissed concerns that Mohamed Salah's absence will derail the team's successful season. Lijnders praised the current attacking options at Liverpool, stating that the team has become more unpredictable since the departures of Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino. Salah, who is currently leading Egypt in the Africa Cup of Nations, suffered a tournament-ending injury and is expected to be sidelined for up to four weeks. Despite Salah's absence, Liverpool has managed to secure victories against Arsenal, Fulham, and AFC Bournemouth, scoring a total of eight goals in those matches. Lijnders expressed confidence in the team's ability to cope without Salah, highlighting the talents of players such as Nunez, Jota, and Gakpo. He mentioned that Liverpool's squad is characterized by its depth and the players' passion and ambition. Lijnders also praised the impact of Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez, who both scored braces in Liverpool's recent win over Bournemouth. Overall, Liverpool's assistant manager believes that the team has the necessary firepower to continue their pursuit of the Premier League title and another cup double.
