Foster: This is why Salah is at the top

Foster: This is why Salah is at the top

Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster has revealed his post-match discussion with Liverpool star Mohamed Salah after his team's 5-0 loss at Vicarage Road on October 16.

Goals from the Pharaohs captain, Sadio Mane, and a hat-trick from Roberto Firmino were all the Reds needed to secure maximum points. The experienced custodian has lauded the current Liverpool side and went on to reveal the discussion he had with Salah.

"Oh my gosh, [Liverpool] are the most well-oiled machine, well-drilled [team]. I think maybe, I've ever even played against in my whole career," Foster told the Cycling GK.

"But the bit I want to talk about in particular is the bit about Mo Salah. About what he said to me at full time that made me think, 'oh my gosh you are so professional, so driven, you want to be the best you can possibly be.

"So they have just won the game 5-0, Mo Salah I think scored one goal in that game. But he came up to me at full time. He has got his hand over his mouth a little bit because he did not want the cameras really to catch it so much. But he has come up and he's gone; 'Ben, Ben,' I have gone like 'okay, yeah? You alright?'"
