I guess this is only a visual problem, but read page 18 in the manual.

In a solvent simulation I would do linear COM removal of the whole
system only (as is done automatically). I guess there will be
artifacts if you just remove the translation of the solute (slight
collisions with the solvent on one side and underpressure on the other
side). But anyone please correct me if there is a clever algorithm to
prevent that! ;-)

Gromacs does COM removal automatically ("linear" on a group called
"rest", which means the whole system if no comm_grps is given, as
written in the log file) if you don't explicitly turn it off ("none"
or nstcomm=0).
Merry Xmas
