‘No, I just think the league is the most important thing for Liverpool this season,’ Carragher replied when asked whether the club could win the Premier League, the Champions League and the Carabao Cup.
‘I think once we start getting towards March, April, the focus, if Liverpool are playing midweek on Wednesday night, big Champions League game or a Saturday, I think for most people the league [takes priority].
In the CBS Sports studio on Tuesday night, Arsenal icon Henry, Liverpool legend Carragher and former Manchester City defender Richards all picked Salah as the man to finally come out on top in October – 12 months on from Rodri’s crowning moment.
Salah has played arguably the finest football of his entire career since Arne Slot took over the reins from Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool last summer, with the Egyptian racking up 21 goals and 12 assists in 23 league appearances this term.
Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards agree that Mohamed Salah should be on course to win this year’s Ballon d’Or if he continues his magnificent form through to the end of the season.
