Mohamed Salah is the most frustrating player in the Premier League, according to former Liverpool defender Steve Nicol, with winning considered to be “the deodorant of the game” for those at Anfield as it “covers all bad smells”.

Quizzed by ESPN FC on whether Firmino has evaded criticism for his struggles on home soil due to Liverpool piecing together a formidable title challenge, Nicol said: “Winning is the deodorant of the game, it covers all bad smells. Winning covers a lot of bad things.

“You can say it with Salah. Salah’s form this season, is there a guy that frustrates you more in the Premier League or anywhere else with the things he does in a game?

“Then all of a sudden he will produce something. So you could say the same about him as well.

“But again, he plays every game and why? Because they win.”
