Liverpool fans have seen this story before.
A relentless title charge, a dominant victory over Manchester City, and the belief that the Premier League trophy is within reach.
But there is something different about this season.
The Reds, now under Arne Slot, have taken control of the title race in a way that few expected.
Sunday’s 2-0 win at the Etihad was a statement.
It wasn’t just about three points; it was about proving that Liverpool are the best team in England right now.
They outplayed Pep Guardiola’s side, controlled key moments, and showed the hunger of champions.
Mohamed Salah was at the heart of it.
He scored the first goal and set up the second, taking his goal contributions for the season to an incredible 40.
It wasn’t an easy game.
City had their moments, with Jeremy Doku causing problems, but without Erling Haaland, they lacked a real threat.
Liverpool took advantage, moving 11 points clear at the top of the table.
The result sent a message – not just to City, but to the entire league.
The Reds want their title back.
After the game, Salah made it clear how much this means to him and his teammates.
Mohamed Salah: We need another league title
“It is incredible.
They are a tough team, and they have an incredible manager.”
“I am glad in the end we won the game.
Especially when you are in the title race, it is incredible.”
Despite the commanding lead, Salah knows the pressure will only increase in the final months of the season.
“Hopefully, we keep calm because sometimes the pressure gets to us.
Maybe people prefer my first seasons or now, but I prefer now because winning the league, helping the young players, it is special.”
For Salah, the job is not done.
He has already won the league once, but he is hungry for more.
“We need another title.
Me and the big guys in the team, we need another title, he said.”
Liverpool are in the driver’s seat, and if they keep this up,
Salah’s wish may become a reality.
