Mohamed Salah: Liverpool’s Premier League Veterans ‘Need Another Title’ As Reds Move 11 Points Clear

Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has emphasized the importance of securing another Premier League title for the club’s experienced players, following their impressive 2-0 victory over Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday. The win, combined with Arsenal’s defeat to West Ham, has given Liverpool a commanding 11-point lead at the top of the table.

When asked by Sky Sports if he thought Liverpool were close to clinching their second Premier League title, Salah responded, “I wouldn’t say it’s close. It’s just like, we need another title for sure. Me and the big guys here in the team, we need another title. But yeah, we’ll give it our best and we’ll give it a good shot.”

Salah has been in sensational form this season, becoming the first player in Europe’s top five leagues to register 50 goal involvements when he opened the scoring against City. The Egyptian forward, along with key teammates such as Virgil van Dijk, Alisson, and Trent Alexander-Arnold, played a vital role in Liverpool’s first Premier League success under former coach Jürgen Klopp in the 2019-20 season.

Despite the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the long-term futures of Salah, van Dijk, and Alexander-Arnold, who are all out of contract at Anfield this summer, Salah admitted that this has been his favorite season on Merseyside. “I don’t know. It’s opinion. Maybe people prefer my first season [or] people prefer now. But I think I prefer now because it’s just winning the league, doing your best and helping the team, helping young players as well. It’s incredible. Probably this year,” he said.
