Mohamed Salah has revealed his thoughts that he sees ‘similarities’ between the current Liverpool side and the one that lifted the title in 2020.
After achieving a historic feat with his 200th goal for the Reds, Mo Salah helped the Reds comeback from 1 goal down to win 2-1 against Palace.
This victory saw Klopp’s men go on top of the table, thanks to Villa’s win over Arsenal. They now are ahead of Arteta’s men by a point.
Salah hails Liverpool teammates’ elite mentality
While speaking in the post-match interview, Salah hailed his team’s elite mentality of not giving up. The Reds have made it their habit to comeback to secure three points against their opponents.
“I think the most important thing is that we won the game. It was really tough. When we win the game and I score goals it’s a great feeling. I’m happy for the record and for the team to win the game.
I see the mentality. Just keep fighting until the end. We did it this game, last game and the game before. It’s something positive we can take from that. Of course we have like a new team, six or seven new players in the starting line. We just need to give them our advice.
They are learning a lot and they are really nice guys. There are similarities from 2019, but of course the other guys achieve a lot and we have to give them credit. But I am sure we can do something special this year.”
The Reds have scored more winning goals in the 90th minute than any other team in the Premier League history.
They have bagged 43 times in the dying embers since the division’s inception in 1992. Moreover, the never-say-die attitude has given them the most points from losing positions this season with 18.
