Liverpool legend Phil Thompson think Mohamed Salah still has a lot to prove to be Lionel Messi
Mohamed Salah is having a good season at Liverpool bagging goals for the Reds just as it should go for the fans who are comparing him to five-time Balon d'or winner Lionel Messi.But Salah still need more seasons to stay consistent, score more goals and prove that he can be on same level with Lionel Messi according to Liverpool Legend Phil Thompson.
Thompson is rather wary of the second-season syndrome which affect most players and think the Liverpool forward still has enough show up in career to be in the wings of Barcelona's key man Lionel Messi.
Thompson told Sky Sports: "It has been the best ever debut season for an attacker and it is just astronomical what he is doing. It must be a dream for him and I imagine he will barely be able to understand what has happened.
