Chris Sutton believes Mohamed Salah “looks fitter than ever” and will prove the difference in Liverpool’s clash with Brentford this weekend.
The Reds made a great start to life under Arne Slot with a 2-0 win at Ipswich Town last week.
Diogo Jota opened the scoring on the hour mark before Salah equalized just five minutes later having already assisted on the first strike.
Salah was live, creating two chances and attempting four shots, while making 11 touches in the opposition area.
Sutton praises ‘ripped’ Salah.
Former Blackburn, Chelsea and Celtic striker Sutton was certainly impressed with what he saw from Salah, who he believes will help Liverpool prove too much for Brentford at Anfield this weekend.
“Mo Salah looked good, he’s ripped and looks fitter than ever,” Sutton wrote in his Premier League predictions column. BBC Sportscontinuing: “I think Liverpool’s attack will be too strong for Brentford’s backline.”
Sutton also credited Slot for showing his “ruthless cost” after the Dutchman sent off Jarell Quansah at the break in favor of Ibrahima Konate.
He added: “It was a very good win for Arne Slot’s Liverpool at Ipswich, they had to work for it and he showed his ruthless side by removing defender Jarell Quansah at half-time and bringing on Ibrahima Konate.”
