Reflecting on Liverpool's win, Neville explained on his self-titled podcast: "He's been class for five, six, seven, eight, nine years - however long he's been at Liverpool.

"When I watch him at the moment, he's unplayable, unplayable.

Do you know when you play against someone that you think, 'Well, I'm going to smash him, I'm going to knock him, I'm gonna go through him'?



He's like a brick wall.

"I mean, that ball get plays up to him from 40, 50 yards away from Alisson into his chest, and he's holding [Josko] Gvardiol off - who's six foot three - like he's a little boy.

And he's been doing that all season, and I've not maybe seen that in the past.

"I know he's always been strong and he's always got a great sort of, low centre of gravity, and he's got strength at length I used to say.

Sometimes, players you play against as a full back, you used to think that what they would do as a winger...they're quite slight - I mean Salah's not but he is probably compared to Gvardiol - and he puts his arm out and you think, 'I can't even move'.

"And that's what Salah is at this moment in time, and then when the ball gets pinged over from [Virgil] van Dijk in the second half - like an 80-yard pass - and you just know he's going to bring it down instantly on a sixpence." He added: "He's absolutely at the top of his game, he's a different level than anything else in the league this season in terms of his performance levels.

I mean, that's 11 games this season, I think, that he's had a goal and an assist in each game, which was fed into us when he scored.
