Mohamed Salah reveals the warning he gives to defenders on the pitch when they try to ‘trash talk’ with him
Liverpool star Mohamed Salah is the best player in the world right now.
The Egypt international is having the greatest season of his life. He has been on fire from the start of the campaign and has already broken plenty of recorﷺds.
Liverpool have one hand on the Premier League title now. They are 11 points above Arsenal at the moment, and Salah has 🍸played a huge role in helping them achieve that.
Now, ever🌳y time the winger steps on the pitch, defenders are terrified of him.
What Mohamed Salah does when defenders trash-talk
Eve👍ry defender has their own way of dealing with whoever they come up against.
Some try to outmuscle the attackers, while others stay touch-tight with them and refus💛e to give them any space to move around.
Then, there are others who use trash-talking to try and get into their opponents’ heads. That may work against some attackers, but it 🅷won’t with everyone.
Salah has come up against many defenders who try to get him off his game by trash-talking, but the Egyp♐tian does not let that faze him.
Instead, the Liverpool star warns t♐he defender that he will make him ‘pay’ for that mistake.
Salah told : “If some of them try to trash talk, I don’t like to enga🌺ge.
“I tell them: ‘I don’t need much, I just need one chance, jusꦍt one chance, and you will payꦅ for it’.”
How many goals and assists does Salah need to make Premier League history?
Salah is having an unbelievable campaign.
The 32-year-old has scored 30 goals and provided 21 assists already this season, and there’s plenty of time for him ♎to add more to his tally.
In the Premier League, Salah has directly contributed to 41 goals so far this terꩲm.

The current record for most direct goal contributions in a single Premier League season – 47 – is jointly held by Alan Shearer and Andy Cole.
However, that happened in a 42-game season.
In a 38-game campaign, the record for most goals and assists in a single Premier League season is held by Thierry Henry and Erling Haaland – 44.
Salah needs just four ꧑more direct goal contributions to break that record. We won’t be surprised if he does that in ൩the next two games.
