Mohamed Salah's record-breaking Champions League hat-trick for Liverpool on Wednesday against Rangers went some way to proving Gary Neville wrong, as the former Manchester United defender expressed concern over the forward's form ahead of the game.
The Reds have endured their worst start to the season for a decade in the Premier League, with two wins from their opening eight games leaving them nine places and 14 points off top-of-the-table Arsenal - who beat them 3-2 at the Emirates on Sunday. The early-season slump has been attributed to a number of different reasons, including the decision to sell Sadio Mane to Bayern Munich in the summer and failing to effectively replace him.
However, the team showed signs of their best at Ibrox in a 7-1 win, with Salah coming off the bench to dismantle a ragged opponent and net three times.
