Reds Legend Steven Gerrard Picks Liverpool's 'Best Player by a Mile' This Season

Former Liverpool star Steven Gerrard has hailed the Reds’ fearsome frontline, reserving special praise for Mo Salah, deeming him to be the club’s “best player by a mile” this season.

The Egyptian starred in Liverpool’s 4-1 drubbing over West Ham on Saturday night, first of all opening the scoring thanks to a blistering counter-attack by himself and Sadio Mane, before sealing the three points with an inch-perfect half-volley.

Salah is now on 12 goals in all competitions for the season and Gerrard - who was covering the match for BT Sport - had nothing but praise when speaking about the 25-year-old.
