Salah wowed Anfield with his brilliant long-range strike – but not Shay Given!

I had my Man City head on. Ian Wright and Steve McManaman were going mad because it was as special goal, but I felt maybe Chelsea could have taken a point or two off Liverpool for my old club.Once Salah hit that strike I thought, oh thats it, theyre not losing now, so it was back to my food!My nickname is The Horse and the nosebag was back on as soon as the ball hit the net.I think I would have caught it, myself!Listen back to Shay Given on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast IN FULL above!
