Former Players Emphasize Mohamed Salah’s Crucial Role at Liverpool

Former Premier League goalkeeper Shay Given addressed Mohamed Salah’s importance to Liverpool during an appearance on Match of the Day 2, remarking: “He’s unbelievable and that graph [above] speaks volumes in itself. He’s a special, talented player. The big news around him is if he is going to stay or go. I don’t think they can afford to let him go.” Former Premier League striker Glenn Murray concurred with Given’s assessment, further stating: “I’m sure Liverpool fans will be desperate for him to stay. He is the first man to hit double [figures] for assists and goals in the Premier League era before Christmas.”
