Mo Salah has had a tremendous start to the season and Peter Crouch was full of praise following his 20th goal of the campaign.
Our Egyptian King put the Reds back level with his goal in the San Siro, before Divock Origi scored the second and we ensued our 100% Champions League record remained in tact.
Speaking after the game, the former Liverpool striker was full of praise for the man fulfilling his role today.
The 40-year-old said: “When I look at those numbers [Salah’s goals and assists this season], it’s frustrating that he’s on 20 goals now and it’s frustrating that he’s going to miss a few games now [AFCON] because he’s on the way to breaking records and getting 40-odd goals.
“If he carries on like this, there’s no limit to the amount of goals he could get this year”.
Our No.11 is only three goals off the tally he achieved in our European Cup winning campaign in 2019 and will certainly have a golden boot in Europe and in the Premier League in his sights this season.
Hopefully his international commitments don’t have too much impact on his numbers this year and he can stay fit to keep adding to them.
