Gary Neville has raved about Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah on Sky Sports Premier League for his goal against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Salah found the back of the net for Liverpool in the first half of the Premier League game against Chelsea in London.

The Egypt international forward scored in the 26th minute.

Sala collected a pass from Trent Alexander-Arnold, took a wonderful touch, and then coolly finished it past Edouard Mendy.

Former Manchester United defender Neville is on co-commentary duty for the match, and he was hugely impressed by Salah’s goal.

World-class

In our view, Salah is a world-class footballer and is one of the best players on the planet.

The former Chelsea star has developed into a goal machine at Liverpool.

Salah is lethal with his left foot and is a nightmare for any defence.

The Egyptian has scored 113 goals in 178 Premier League appearances so far in his career.

For Liverpool to win the Premier League and the Champions League this season, Salah will have to be on top of his game throughout.
