Mohamed Salah leaves Jenas purring with goal "better" than Man City genius

It looks like Mohamed Salah might be staging his own goal of the month competition for October.

Just two weeks ago, he scored a stunner against Manchester City with a moment of genius leaving defenders in his wake.

And as the Premier League resumed after the international break, the Egyptian King picked up where he left off with another sensational solo effort.

Salah displayed stunning close control to leave several defenders on the floor before curling another magnificent finish into the bottom corner.

The goal left Jermaine Jenas purring on co-commentary on BT Sport - and he claimed the strike was even better than his eye-catching effort against Manchester City.

"Oh.. my… word," Jenas exclaimed as the ball hit the net.

"It was only in his last game against City he scored one of the goals of the season but this better's it.

"Look at the feet, oh my word. See you later, chucks a couple on the floor and sends it into the top corner.

"This fella is in the form of his life right now. The confidence he is playing, that is incredible.

"He's taken it round the whole team like they weren't even there, the finish is sublime he knows once he gets his angle that's the moment.

"That little roll with the studs, it's a beautiful thing.

"Cathcart was up here with us after that chop it was beautiful. He's giving it a go, at least he is, but he's going to be apart of the highlight reel, it was beautiful."

Liverpool took just eight minutes to open the scoring at Vicarage Road with a perfect pass from Salah setting free Sadio Mane to score.

The Reds were already 3-0 up via two Roberto Firmino goals by the time Salah stole the headlines with his latest moment of magic.

Whilst the TV microphones picked up Jenas' disbelief, he wasn't the only one left in awe watching the latest addition to Salah's highlight reel.
