Mohamed Salah has insisted that he always expected to start the season strongly and score so many goals for Liverpool FC because of his work ethic.

The 25-year-old attacker has been one of the Premier League’s top performing players this season and has earned plenty of praise for his strong displays for the Reds.

Salah scored 15 goals in his first 19 Premier League outings for the Reds after hitting the ground running following his move from Serie A side Roma in the summer transfer window.

The Egypt international will be hoping to continue his form in the coming weeks and months as he bids to help Liverpool FC to win a trophy.

His superb start to the season has surprised some, because he struggled to adapt to the rigours of the Premier League during his spell at Chelsea a few years ago.

However, Salah himself has insisted that he always expected to be in fine form from the start for the Reds.

Asked if he expected to score so many goals so soon with Liverpool FC, Salah told Sky Sports: “Honestly, yes.

“I always say nothing is by luck. You work, you expect more and you will get what you deserve.”

He continued: “At the beginning when I signed for Liverpool it was a bit different to Rome.

“But soon I knew what the coach wanted from me and the quality of players makes everything easier for me.

“From the first day I knew what I wanted to do and I scored goals in the pre-season so I had a good start.”

Liverpool FC will return to Premier League action on Saturday when they host Leicester City at Anfield in the top flight.
