"It's almost unbelievable he has scored 250 goals at one club. Conor Bradley congratulates Mohamed Salah after he scored Liverpool's opening goal against Aston Villa (Image: Liverpool FC/Liverpool FC via Getty Images) "Apart from the goal he scored tonight he had a very good performance.

When we had to play long we played mainly long towards him and he could hold the ball and because of that the rest of the team could come to him and we could keep playing. It's special for him to score 250 but for him to score is not special as we always know he will score." Regarding Salah's developing partnership with Conor Bradley, who once again started at right-back, Slot continued: "The more players play together, the better they will be.

In other games we have mainly after five minutes been 1-0 down and you get a completely different game. "You can't compare a game where you are 2-0 up and one where you are 3-1 down when it comes to control.
