Rio Ferdinand has said on his YouTube channel that Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah was back to his best against Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur.

Liverpool got the better of Tottenham 2-1 in North London on Sunday evening.

Egypt international forward Salah scored both the goals for the Reds at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

And both the goals in the Premier League game came in the first half.

Former Manchester United defender Ferdinand was following the match, and he was impressed by Salah.

Back to his best

In our view, Mohamed Salah is back to his best and is playing the way he has done for Liverpool for the past few years.

The Egyptian is looking sharp, scoring goals, seems back to his clinical best, and is linking up well with his Liverpool teammates.

Salah is one of the best forward players in the world, and we think that for Liverpool to be successful this season, both in the Premier League and in the UEFA Champions League, he has to be on top of his game throughout.

The Liverpool no. 11 has scored six goals and provided three assists in the Premier League, and has scored seven goals and given one assist in the UEFA Champions League so far this season.
