Former Liverpool star Jon Molby believes that Mohamed Salah will go down as one of the Red’s greatest ever players, as he continues to produce the goods for the English giants.

The Egyptian was at the forefront of Liverpool’s 7-0 drubbing of Manchester United last week and subsequently moved ahead of Robbie Fowler as the club’s highest-ever goal scorers in the Premier League (129).

According to Molby, Salah will go down as a club legend however, a lack of Premier League titles could count against him when compared to the likes of Ian Rush and Sir Kenny Dalglish.

“I mean obviously there’s one thing that you see with your own eyes when he plays and what a good player he is,” Molby said, as per Liverpool Echo.

“Then the stats back everything up because it’s season after season after season. He’s available for every training session, he’s available for every single match. He delivers every single season. What more can you say?

“I think in terms of his influence and impact on Liverpool he’s right up there with any of them but the biggest problem he is going to have over time is his lack of trophies when you compare to some of the others. But there’s no doubt in terms of his impact that he ranks amongst the best.”
