Mohamed Salah makes 'incredible' admission and explains what Liverpool 'big guys need'

Mohamed Salah has urged Liverpool to remain calm after the Reds recorded what he called an "incredible" victory against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium. The Egyptian scored and assisted Dominik Szoboszlai's second as the Reds dominated in a 2-0 win.

The result leaves Liverpool 11 points clear of Arsenal at the top of the table, having played a game more than the Gunners, who lost 1-0 at home to West Ham United on Saturday.

While it felt like Arne Slot's side took a huge stride towards the title with victory at the Etihad, Salah admits the pressure remains on as they enter the final 11 games of the season.

And Salah echoed the message his captain, Virgil van Dijk, has been repeating throughout the season - for Liverpool to remain focussed on the next game and not get carried away.

He said: "It is incredible. It is a very hard place to come and play here. They are a tough team and they have an incredible manager I am glad in the end we won the game. It is special. Especially when you are in the title race, it is incredible.

"Hopefully we keep calm because sometimes the pressure gets to us. We try to win each game."

Salah now has over 50 goal contributions this season, having scored 30 times and assisted 21 goals already and Slot has managed to built on the success of Jurgen Klopp since taking over at Anfield last summer.

Asked if Liverpool were better than ever, Salah added: "I don't know. It is opinion. Maybe people prefer my first seasons or now but I prefer now because winning the league, helping the young players, it is special.

"We need another title. Me and the big guys in the team, we need another title."
