Liverpool's experienced striker, Mohamed Salah, has not been indifferent to criticism from the media and fans in recent weeks. He not only responds, but also strengthens his status with clear and open statements.
The 33-year-old winger is currently the highest-scoring player among active players in the Premier League - with 190 goals, he is significantly ahead of others. This indicator once again demonstrates Salah as one of the most effective strikers in the league's last decade.
He said he holds all the players in high regard, including Erling Haaland. However, despite all the criticism, he emphasized that he is currently the Premier League's top scorer.
"I have great respect for everyone. I also value Haaland. But I'll say one thing openly - right now I'm the Premier League's top scorer. Erling hasn't reached this stage yet. Of course, he will achieve this, and I want to. He will be happy about this. We have mutual respect, he knows this well.
However, despite this, it is I who am constantly forced to justify myself to the media and fans. I can't understand this," Salah said after the 3-3 victory against Leeds. He played this game on the bench.
It's worth noting that Haaland has scored 100 goals in 112 Premier League appearances. This further increases his chances of becoming one of the league's top scorers in the future.
Salah's firm statement will undoubtedly lead to even more heated discussions amidst the reaction, criticism, and pressure on him. But one thing is certain - he will not shy away from defending his legacy, statistics, and scoring status, and this once again manifested itself as a unique player's character.
