Liverpool need to get back to the team ‘they used to be’ if they are to overcome their slow start to the season.
That’s according to former Reds defender Dejan Lovren, who has revealed he is in regular contact with their star Mohamed Salah.
Liverpool have endured a difficult start to the season, with just two wins from their first six league games leaving them eighth in the table and nine points behind leaders Arsenal.
Their Champions League campaign also got off to the worst possible start, with a 4-1 defeat away to Napoli raising plenty of questions and leading Jurgen Klopp to say his side needed to reinvent themselves.
They’ve since bounced back with a moralising win over Ajax at Anfield but there is still a feeling they are not at the levels they’ve hit over the last few years.
“I talk to Salah at least once a month,” he told Sportske when asked if he was in touch with anyone at his old club.
“We will see how the story with Liverpool will unfold, whether they are just in a bad period or if the story will go down. They have to go back to the Liverpool they used to be.
“The Premiership is a very tough league. Some new players came to Liverpool, they need to adapt.”
