Diogo Jota has praised Mohamed Salah’s incredible form for Liverpool this season ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain.
Diogo Jota has praised Mohamed Salah‘s incredible form this season, describing it as “outstanding”.
Jota believes that Salah’s performances have been so impressive that people have almost stopped counting his goals and assists.
The league’s top scorer has been in sensational form this season, scoring 32 goals and providing 22 assists in 41 appearances. The Portuguese forward thinks those contributions have been crucial to Liverpool’s success.

What Jota said about Salah’s end product
Speaking ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League last-16 second leg at Anfield, Jota said that Salah is the best player he has ever played with and that his performances have been a major boost to the team.
He added that the Egyptian forward’s ability to create chances and score goals have been pivotal to Arne Slot’s Reds.
“It’s outstanding,” said the Portuguese forward on the eve of PSG’s visit. “I think at the moment people almost stopped counting because he’s just doing incredible things and then in the end we’ll just see the final numbers.
“It’s for sure the player I played with, at least, the biggest season. The difference is so big, it’s like, let’s see the final numbers.
“Obviously that helped us a lot because we know we can rely on him to do a lot of things – create chances, either scoring or assisting. Obviously it’s good to have a player like that in the team.”

A quick look at when Mo Salah’s Liverpool could win the PL as early as April 5 at Fulham with 78 pts if they win 3 and Arsenal lose 4. Or April 26 vs Spurs if 13-pt lead holds.
Luis Enrique’s men visit Anfield on the back of last week’s 1-0 loss on home turf in Paris, where Alisson Becker produced a goalkeeping clinic to deny the French side with nine saves.
Salah, who had an underwhelming night, aims to add to his 54 goal contributions in Tuesday’s encounter.
