  • Jamie Carragher has insisted that there are no doubts about calling Liverpool star Mohamed Salah the best player in the world
  • The 29-year-old has been in superb form for the Reds this season and proved his worth in their Premier League clash against Man City
  • The Egyptian has scored eight goals in all competition from Jurgen Klopp's side this season as they remain unbeaten

Jamie Carragher has stated that Liverpool's Mohamed Salah is currently the best player in the world following his performance against Man City, Daily Mail.

Salah came alive in the second half and was a thorn in the flesh for City defenders, showing flashes of brilliance.

Carragher's eulogies on Salah

City came back from behind twice to earn a draw in a keenly contested game and Carragher believes it is enough to prove Salah is currently the best player in the world.

The Reds legend told Sky Sports:

"I don’t think there’s anyone better in the world at this moment or in European football, I really don't.
"I’ve seen the Champions League, his record over the last few weeks has been outstanding.
"You can never question him too much for what he’s done at Liverpool. But right now is about as sharp as I’ve ever seen him."

The 29-year-old has scored six goals in seven Premier League games this season and three in two Champions League appearances.

Jurgen Klopp's remain the only unbeaten in the English top-flight division but fall a point behind Chelsea on the table.

Another Liverpool legend claims Salah is the best in the world

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had earlier reported that former Premier League star Dean Saunders has named Mohamed Salah of Liverpool as the current best player in the world rating the Egypt international above Ronaldo and Messi.

On Tuesday night, September 28, Mohamed Salah was in great form for Liverpool netting a brace in their Champions League win over Porto which ended 5-1 in favour of the Reds.

His brace against Porto in the Champions League now means that Mohamed Salah has netted eight goals for Liverpool in 8 appearances so far this season.
