Liverpool news: Mohamed Salah is frightening… he is a genuine game changer - Owen

MOHAMED SALAH is one of the few genuine “game-changers” at Liverpool.

Those are the thoughts of Liverpool legend-turned-pundit Michael Owen.

Salah produced another sublime display and he helped break the deadlock in the over NK Maribor in the Champions League last night at Anfield.

While Jurgen Klopp has been widely criticised over his defence, the Anfield outfit have been electrifying going forward and Salah has scored 10 goals already in all competitions.

And Owen thinks it is “frightening” just how much of a difference the 25-year-old makes to the side.

“You look down at the team sheet and say Salah and Firmono are the two most creative players on pitch,” Owen told BT Sport.

“They are game changers and you need them and match winners.

“There’s loads of players who can do a job, but not many that can change a match.

“Salah is frightening, he gets some chances in games and he missed a sitter with his head.

“His goal return for Liverpool is already impressive and he’s just one of those players that chances fall to him.

“He’s got great movement.”
