Liverpool’s coach, Jurgen Klopp, showered praise on Mohamed Salah, hailing him as a “special player” after the Egyptian maestro orchestrated a convincing 3-0 triumph against Brentford at Anfield in the English Premier League clash on Sunday.
Salah’s stellar performance included scoring twice, elevating his Liverpool goal tally to 198 and securing the fifth position in the club’s all-time top scorers.
The brace also propelled Salah’s overall goal count in English football to an impressive 200, considering his previous two goals for Chelsea.
Klopp, acknowledging Salah’s exceptional contribution, remarked, “He is an exceptional player. He played a superb game. The composure for the first goal was insane. A special player.”
Salah’s prowess on the field not only solidified Liverpool’s return to winning ways but also instilled confidence in his teammates.
Liverpool forward Diogo Jota expressed the significance of having Salah on the pitch, stating, “He is always there. He is a goal threat, creates chances, and he is really important for us like everyone knows.”
The victory came as a rebound for Liverpool after their 1-1 draw with Luton raised doubts about their ability to challenge Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City for the Premier League title. Salah’s remarkable performance serves as a testament to his instrumental role in Liverpool’s pursuit of success in the ongoing season.
