Players like him don't come along very often, Solskjaer on Salah

CAIRO-22 October 2021: Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes that his team’s defense needs to be at their best on Sunday to stop Liverpool’s attacking line, led by in-form winger Mohamed Salah.

The Norwegian coach believes that Salah has a staggering start to the season and he is enjoying the form of his life, which makes Manchester United’s mission on Sunday even harder.

“Salah is on fire. You see some of the goals he's scored lately, we know we have to be at our best to defend against him. Players like him don't come along very often. We have to enjoy these players from afar - not Sunday, that's too close.” Solskjaer said.

Liverpool are unbeaten after eight fixtures in the league and they are the strongest attacking line in the competition with 22 goals.

Solskjaer added “I'm a big admirer of their frontline for many, many years. Mane, Firmino, maybe Jota will play. They are players you should be focused on for 95 minutes to keep a clean sheet."

The two teams will meet on Sunday at Manchester United’s cathedral, Old Trafford.
