Arsene Wenger has hailed the ‘monstrous’ Liverpool pair of Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.
The former Arsenal manager heaped praise on them after Liverpool’s 5-2 aggregate win over Villarreal on Tuesday night which saw the Reds qualify for the Champions League final. Both Salah and Mane have shown remarkable durability this season as Liverpool chase an unprecedented quadruple. They have each featured 46 times in all competitions across the campaign. Mane has scored 21 goals while Salah has netted 30 and the Egyptian was last week named as The Football Writers' Association Player of the Year.
Both players also featured seven times during the African Cup of Nations earlier this year and have played seven World Cup qualifiers since September 2021. Mane’s Senegal defeated Salah’s Egypt on penalties in both the African Cup of Nations final and the final round of World Cup qualification.
