Mohamed Salah has just sent louder Liverpool message to FSG
In a pre-match dominated by the noise around Mohamed Salah's contract, it was his second-half celebration with the Liverpool fans that drowned it out.
Salah's 20th goal of an increasingly productive Premier League campaign was the moment this game drifted out of sight for a spirited Brighton to take the visiting Reds to within three points of Manchester City at the top.
But it was also the moment that the man so affectionately known as the 'Egyptian King' washed away the fuss kicked up by his own camp on the eve of this vital clash at the Amex.
Much of the build-up, unhelpfully from Jurgen Klopp's perspective, centred around the future of Salah, whose contract impasse goes on at Anfield.
Salah, as he prefers to do, did his talking on the pitch instead, bringing up goal number 20 in the Premier League for a fourth time with a well-taken penalty to make it 2-0.

Jurgen Klopp gives Mohamed Salah injury update
Jurgen Klopp has issued an update on the injury that Mohamed Salah suffered in Liverpool’s 2-0 win at Brighton & Hove Albion.
Salah grabbed his 20th Premier League goal of the season when he scored a penalty just after the hour mark to double the Reds' advantage after Luis Diaz’s headed opener.
The victory means Liverpool move within three points of Manchester City, who are set to face Crystal Palace on Monday night.
However, shortly after converting from the spot, Salah went down and required treatment from the club’s medical staff before being replaced by Diogo Jota.
