Former Liverpool striker John Aldridge has compared Mohamed Salah to Barcelona's Luis Suarez, claiming the Egyptian goes down 'too easily' in the penalty area.
Salah has been a revelation since his move to Anfield from Roma in the summer of 2017. He has notched 50 Premier goals in just 72 appearances, the fourth fastest player to reach the milestone in the competition's history.

He has earned his reputation as a serious goal getter but another part of his game has come into question in recent weeks, with several fans and pundits accusing him of diving.
Aldridge, who won the league with Liverpool in 1988, wrote about the Egyptian forward in his column in the Liverpool Echo. He wrote:
"Now Salah has to be careful. Everybody is on to him. This has happened in the past with players - think Luis Suarez - who look for a touch and then go down.
