Mohamed Salah showed why he’s considered as the best player in the Premier League currently as he scored an early goal of the season strike against Watford
When Liverpool made the trip to Vicarage Road for their matchup with Watford as Premier League football returned after the international break, the visitors were envisaged to be in for a trick contest.
Galvanized by the appointment of Claudio Ranieri, a galvanized Watford side was envisioned to put on a sturdy fight on the day. And with Liverpool devoid of the services of its Brazilian players as both Fabinho and Alisson missed out, Jurgen Klopp’s side knew things wouldn’t be straightforward for it.
However, Liverpool needed just 9 minutes to score the opener as Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah combined with Mane netting for the club. And while a resilient Watford side managed to show fight and character for a short period, it all came undone as Roberto Firmino doubled the side’s advantage in the first half.

Roberto Firmino eventually managed to wrap up his hattrick as well as he scored in the first minute of added time to wrap up a comprehensive 5-0 win for the club. The clinical manner in which Liverpool decimated Watford was a testament to the unit Klopp was foraged over the years, one capable of beating the best of sides in world football.
