Carragher puts Mo Salah's Liverpool achievements in perspective after latest record




Jamie Carragher has labelled Mohamed Salah an all-time Liverpool great


Salah scored his 100th goal at Anfield to give the Reds a 1-0 victory against the Bees



Salah's strike means he now has 186 goals for Liverpool, the same amount as legendary skipper Steven Gerrard


Jamie Carragher:


Carragher: "This club are very lucky to have [had] some great goalscorers in the past... and I think when Mo Salah eventually stops playing for the club, he goes right in there as one of the top players to have ever played for the team.


"I think he goes in an all-time Liverpool XI, and you could argue he's in the top five or six players to have ever played for the club. His volume of games, goals and assist is right up there with some of the greatest players we've ever seen in the history of this club.


"He deserves to be in such company. I don't ever see it stopping until the time he stops [playing] because you just see that in his goal today - his actual desire to get across the defender and put that ball in. He's just got an appetite for goals that we see the great strikers have, and he's certainly got it."



Carragher added: "He's been an absolute revelation.


"When you look back at this Klopp era, we always talk a lot about the goalkeeper [Alisson] and [Virgil] van Dijk changing that Liverpool team. It was Mo Salah as well.


"All three of those players were bought within a 12-month period. Salah came in the summer, Virgil van Dijk came in the January and then Alisson came the following summer as well. Those three signings are why Liverpool have been so successful under Jurgen Klopp."


"He'll go down as not just one of the greatest players to have ever played for Liverpool, but I think one of the greatest players we've ever seen in the Premier League."
