Salah, who also helped his side to a 5-0 win at Old Trafford earlier in the season, was asked why his side were enjoying themselves against the Red Devils.

The 29-year-old replied: ‘They make our lives easier’, with fans believing he was referring to the Man United players.

But Salah explains his comments online and insists he was talking about his own team’s defenders and midfielders making it easy for the strikers.

He tweeted: “I thought our midfield and defense makes it easy for us.

“I haven’t talked about the Manchester United players that I respect.”

Salah had told Sky Sports last night: ‘They make our lives easier, in midfield and at the back.

“They always try to give us the ball in a one-on-one situation, so they make life a lot easier for us if we defend well.

“We conceded a goal here, conceded a goal there. They make it easier for us to score goals, we just go to the game and just want to score a goal, once we’ve scored the first, we want to score the second, once we’ve scored the second get, want to get the third.

“I think it’s a top performance from us here and away – hopefully we’ll just keep going like this.”

Liverpool’s victory put them two points clear of title rivals Manchester City at the top of the table – although Pep Guardiola’s side host Brighton in their game tonight.

Salah’s two-goal win extended his lead at the top of the Prem Golden Boot race, taking his overall tally to 22 this season.

He is five clear of second-placed Son Heung-min and the Spurs ace is next up against Brentford on Saturday.
