Claudio Ranieri: Salah Is One of the Best Globally Currently

Watford's head coach Claudio Ranieri said on Sunday that Liverpool star Mohamed Salah is one of the best players in the world at this moment.

The Egyptian laid on a superb assist for Sadio Mane before scoring his 10th goal of the season in the second half of the 5-0 hammering of the Hornets.

“I think if Salah's not the best then he’s one of the best in the world at this moment. Salah is in great condition and everything he touches is a goal. Well done for him and well done for Liverpool," he said, according to LiverpoolEcho.com.

“You find out the truth when you are on the pitch against the big teams. Defeats are always difficult but I am a very positive man. I saw where we have to improve. Look, the match we know the difficulties when you play against Liverpool."

"Everything is okay now, we have to think about ourselves and improve everything," Ranieri  added.
