'Quite good' - Mohamed Salah gives his verdict on wild Tottenham win and tells Liverpool defence to shape up after shipping three

Premier League

Liverpool

Ipswich

Tottenham

Leicester

<p>Salah scored twice and laid on two assists as Liverpool thumped Spurs 6-3 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday to extend their lead at the top of the table to four points in the Premier League. The Egypt international has been in electric form, scoring 15 goals in 16 games, and also laying on 11 assists.<a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/new-record-mohamed-salah-liverpool-star-makes-premier-league-history-latest-assists-tottenham/bltfdda60d337872dbe#cs59fcdff5dd44a87d" target="_blank"> He is the first player in the league's history to record 10 or more goals and assists in four consecutive seasons</a>. </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Liverpool have only lost once this season but Salah has urged the Reds' defence to shape up as they bid to win their second Premier League title. They had led 5-1, but a Spurs fightback reduced the arrears, and added some degree of tension to the game's denouement. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Salah told Sky: "We were quite good up front but defensively we need to improve as a team. Conceding three goals is quite hard. It’s a good result, hopefully we just keep going."</p><p>He added: "We expected that [a chaotic game], the way they play, they open the game, they enjoy their football, physically tough and mentally we always have to be in the game.</p><p>"They don't change much the way they play, it’s intense. City came here and struggled, other teams too. I’m happy we won because they play an intense game."</p>

WHAT SALAH SAID

<p>Liverpool face Leicester on Boxing Day as they aim to continue their impressive run of form. Salah will hope to add to his tally. </p>
