Liverpool boss Arne Slot was once again left singing the praises of Mohamed Salah, but he was pleased with the team's collective efforts too after beating Lille

Salah's first-half strike handed Liverpool the lead and they upped the pressure in the second half as they searched for another goal. Mandi was then sent off after he received a second yellow card for a challenge on Luis Diaz and it appeared as though the Reds would soon find the breakthrough they were looking for.

“Hopefully (it’s) not the last one,” said Salah, whose contract expires at the end of the season and has increasingly raised the prospect that this could be his last with the Merseyside club.
