Arsene Wenger heaped praise on Mohamed Salah following the Liverpool star’s ‘top-class’ display against Atletico Madrid last night.
The legendary Frenchman understands football better than almost everyone else. When he speaks, people listen, and Liverpool fans absolutely love what he has said about their Egyptian king.

The 29-year-old was yet again the best player on the pitch for Liverpool. He is having an amazing season and Wenger believes that Salah is undoubtedly the best in the world at the moment.
