For players such as Salah, Postecoglou believes that age is just irrelevant and he can see no signs of his qualities declining as the years go by.
“Definitely, great news for Liverpool, more I guess, than anyone else”, Postecoglou said at a press conference (7:54).
“He is such a fantastic player, but with certain players, age is irrelevant.

“He has probably had his best season this year and I don’t see him diminishing.
“So great for Liverpool and great for the league.
“You want the best players here, you want the best players performing in this competition.
“So I think that is positive for everyone.”
