Liverpool ace Salah: They don't tease me about not scoring against Man Utd now

Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah is happy to have silenced Manchester United fans in recent years.

A goal tomorrow night will lift him into outright eighth place on Liverpool's list of all-time top scorers.

Salah spoke to Premier League Productions before the game, saying: "I'm really focused on small details because I think small details, at the end of the day, are going to make a huge difference between players.

“So on the details I really try to ask about everything and have all the details. Not just in the game, even outside – food, drink, hydration, sleep, time, everything. I'm really crazy and particular about that because I think it has made a huge difference."

Salah, who took five matches before he scored his first goal against United, added: “It's a big game and I'm always excited about the game. Two years ago everybody was saying, 'you never scored against United ', so life changed.

"But it's always like this in my mind: I'm trying to score goals to help the team win games and get points – that's the most important thing."
