Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has hailed Mo Salah's transformation from goal-scoring winger to potent number nine.
Fowler knows a thing or two about leading the line at Anfield, having scored 183 goals across two spells at the club, from 1993-2001 and 2006/07 .
Salah has been deployed in a central striking role for much of this season, having dazzled from out wide in his debut campaign last year.
However, Fowler says the success of his positional shift has come as no surprise.
“His record’s brilliant, it really is," Fowler told Liverpool's club website. "When you watch him play you just know that you’re more or less guaranteed to get chances and obviously if he keeps getting chances he’s going to continue to score goals.
“The way he’s played up there hasn’t surprised me because I think you just knew that he was a good player regardless of where he played.
"Clever players can play anywhere and he epitomises a clever player.”
