Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has praised Mohamed Salah for his remarkable tally of goals and assists this season.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Henry expressed admiration for Salah’s consistency in both scoring and creating chances.
“Regardless of what it is, when you can do both, it’s just outstanding,” said Henry.
He noted that Salah’s contributions go beyond simple statistics and reflect a deep understanding of attacking play. Henry highlighted how new Liverpool manager Arne Slot has influenced Salah’s performance positively.
According to Henry, Slot’s system ensures Liverpool constantly has three to five players inside the box. This tactical setup increases scoring opportunities from every attacking move.
“Even if he misses a cross, the ball will go to the second person and someone can tap it in,” Henry explained.

Slot’s system elevates Salah, says Henry
He stressed that Salah thrives in this environment, where support and movement around him are constant. Henry believes Salah’s success is not just personal but also structural, shaped by Slot’s aggressive and fluid attacking philosophy.
He credited Slot for giving Salah the freedom and support needed to operate at his best. Salah’s ability to make the right decisions in the final third sets him apart from many forwards.
Titi also pointed out that such intelligence and awareness make Salah a complete attacking threat.
Under Slot’s leadership, Salah has adapted quickly while maintaining his usual threat level. The combination of Slot’s tactical vision and Salah’s execution has made Liverpool’s attack even more dangerous.
Henry concluded by saying that Salah’s blend of goals and assists reflects more than talent; it reflects understanding. In his view, Salah’s performances are a product of sharp movement, positional awareness, and strong team dynamics.
With Slot at the helm and Salah in top form, Liverpool remain a potent force going forward.
