Salah has enjoyed a fine start to life at Anfield, scoring 14 goals and laying on four assists in his first 18 games for the club in all competitions. That goalscoring form was on display once again over the weekend, with the Egyptian scoring twice against Southampton on Saturday to make him the top goalscorer in the Premier League so far this season with nine.
The 25-year-old's performances have not gone unnoticed, with compatriot Mido taking to Twitter to hail the winger and declare that his form is so good that he will soon depart Anfield for bigger and better things.
"Congratulations to @22mosalah on becoming the most Egyptian to Score goals in Europe and still got plenty to come!!remember when the Liverpool fans made fun of me when I said 3 years ago that Salah is 10 times better thn Sterling..well now they know I was right !!keep going son!!" declared the former Wigan, Spurs and Middlesbrough striker.
"@22mosalah got the mentality to keep playing at the top level for many years and this is what we were all Egyptians r missing when we had the chance to play in Europe..I believe thatSalah will not stay for long at @LFC !!soon he will be gone to @realmadriden #HalaMadrid"
Middlesbrough fans in particular will no doubt crack a smile at Mido's references to mentality after he completely flopped during his stay at the Riverside, without appearing to care at any point.
