Following his team’s loss, Brentford manager Thomas Frank couldn’t speak highly enough of one Liverpool player, and this provides the Reds with a clear transfer solution.
Few teams can handle Mohamed Salah when he’s playing at his best. On Sunday, Brentford learned that the hard way.
With his double in the 3-0 victory over the weekend, Liverpool’s talisman reached double figures in the Premier League this season. Had he been able to hold off a first-half volley, it very well may have been a hat-trick. Still, this was the clinical peak of Salah.
With 10 goals and 4 assists in the league so far this season, the Egyptian is only second in goal involvement after Erling Haaland (13 goals, 3 assists). Thomas Frank, the manager of Brentford, was certain after witnessing another masterpiece from Salah as to who would win.
Frank stated (via the ECHO), “Mo Salah gets praised a lot but I don’t know if he gets enough praise.” “As of right now, he may be the finest player in the Premier League, in my opinion.
“What a level in terms of goals and assists. He has to be among the world’s best offensive players. Not in the top 10, but in the top 3.
What he did is problematic, as you would know when dealing with a player of that caliber. Additionally, we are not playing enough defense to prevent him from scoring the second goal, although the first is a classic Liverpool attack. We concede, counterattack, and then bang—we’ve scored a goal—into Salah.
