Fans have been reacting on social media after hearing Mohamed Salah's post-match interview on the back of Liverpool's win over Leicester City.
Liverpool continued their push for the Premier League title on Thursday night with a hard-fought victory over Leicester.
The Reds fell behind after Jordan Ayew stunned Anfield within six minutes. However, goals from Cody Gakpo, Curtis Jones and Salah sealed a 3-1 win comeback win.
As a result, Arne Slot's men now hold a seven-point lead at the top of the Premier League table, with Arsenal in with a chance of closing the gap to six with a win over Ipswich Town on Friday night.
After the match, Salah was asked about Liverpool's chances of winning the Premier League.

The Egyptian told Amazon Prime: "It is a good result. They were very tough in the first half and in the second half, the way they prepared themselves, they were very good.
"The most important thing is the team winning - hopefully we win the Premier League. It is great, but we focus on each game, and hopefully we carry on like that."
Salah continued: "It feels different [to previous years where they have led the league but not won it], but the most important thing is we need to stay humble.
"This one is very special. Hopefully we win the Premier League and, for this club, it is something I dream of."

Reacting on social media, fans were quick to pick out Salah's 'Stay humble' comment, which Erling Haaland made headlines with after Manchester City's 2-2 draw against Arsenal in September.
The Norwegian was filmed saying to Gunners boss Mikel Arteta: "Stay humble, eh," after the final whistle.

Reacting to Salah's comments, one fan said: "Mo Salah with the "Stay Humble" line, you know who he’s referring to!"
Another tweeted: "Sly dig on @ErlingHaaland."
A third fan added: "That could be top sh**housery or cursed words."
Meanwhile, Liverpool boss Slot said: "It’s important to win a game and I think we should win at home against Leicester, but I had the same feeling against Fulham and Nottingham Forest; so, you always have to do a lot, especially in the Premier League, to win a game.

"The league table is something of course we are aware of, but we also understand how many games there are still to play."
Liverpool are back in Premier League action this weekend when they take on West Ham United at the London Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
