If Mohamed Salah is struggling with confidence and belief, then he hardly showed it after this incredible FA Cup semi-final victory for Liverpool.
As he moved through the mixed zone at Wembley, he was asked when he would speak to reporters next. Quick as a flash, and with a warm, teasing smile, he replied: “When we have won all four!”
It was said not as a prediction, but clearly in light-hearted jest. Yet you got the point. He may not be scoring goals at the moment, his exquisite touch in front of goal temporarily deserted him, but this is not a player with a fragile mentality.
