West Ham United defender, Ben Johnson, enjoyed his clash with Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah.
Although unable to get on the scoresheet in the Reds’ 3-2 defeat to the Hammers on Sunday afternoon, Salah claimed an assist as Jurgen Klopp’s side saw their 25-match unbeaten run come to an end.
“Incredible, faultless,” said the 21-year-old of Salah.

“Playing football and being in a dressing room we don’t really compare players, we just respect what they are doing if they are tearing it up.

“I want to challenge myself against the best and he’s arguably the best player in the world.”
