Napoli vs Liverpool: 5 Players who could change the game on their own | Champions League 2019/20

#1  Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)

Mohamed Salah looked isolated for most parts of the game against Newcastle on Saturday but managed to find the back of the net. It was an outrageous piece of skill from Roberto Firmino, but the Egyptian still had a lot to do before seeing the net bulge for the fourth time in the Premier League this season.

If the 27-year-old is provided with space, there’s a chance of severe destruction to his opponents. He has struggled when opponents shrug him with their physicality, but Salah has increased his physicality – making it tougher for the opponents to pinch the ball off him. Faouzi Ghoulam was rested in weekend and is the first-choice right-back under Carlo Ancelotti.

The Algerian does not have pace like Mohamed Salah, but is adept in doing simpler things which pays off. Salah will have to be clinical and take his chance which comes his way on Tuesday. He can singlehandedly cause damage if he finds his rhythm.
