But they must first face bitter rivals Manchester United on Sunday at Old Trafford, a game you can hear live on talkSPORT from 2.05pm.Alongside City star Sergio Aguero, Salah has 17 goals in the league this season. And speaking to Reds legend Jamie Carragher, the ‘Egyptian King’ revealed the pressure is helping him maintain his scoring streak.“You can feel it [the pressure] because you are still a human being,’ Salah told the Sky Sports pundit. ‘For me it is not a big deal if I win a game now or three weeks ago.“I want to win each game, but for myself I said that we are playing for the Premier League, so there is pressure. Also there is pressure for Man City.Salah was chatting to Sky Sports pundit Jamie CarragherSky Sports3

“I said in November that there is pressure and it will be there until the end of the season, because when you okay for the Premier League you have to accept that there is pressure.“When you go home you can take it with you, but it can help you to work harder and focus on your game.“To enjoy it is not enough, from my side. At the end of the day you have a target in your mind, you have a dream, you want to win the Premier League. I even said that two years ago when I came – it is a dream to win the Premier League.”In December, United were battered by Liverpool at Anfield in a convincing 3-1 win which ultimately cost Jose Mourinho his job.Defeat to Liverpool proved to be the final straw for Mourinho3

Since then, the Red Devils have been in imperious form in all competitions, willing 11 of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer‘s games in charge.Although the visitors will fancy their chances of getting three points at Old Trafford, 26-year-old is well aware of the threat United pose to their title charge.“They are different now because they have won 11 games,” Salah told Carragher. “They have more confidence. With Mourinho it was different, but he is a smart manager, one of the best, everyone knows that.“From being a kid I know this is one of the biggest games in the world. I know Trent (Alexander-Arnold) is the only one from Liverpool but we all know the passion when you play for Liverpool against Man United, how big that game is for him. “It is a very big week, for us, and if we win three games and are top of the table, that is huge for us. When you have three games in a week or 10 days, you just need to win, win, win, then after that you have time to think.“Even when we are not top of the league, I know how much United want to win against Liverpool and Everton the same. For me it is not a big deal. We just need to do what we have been doing for the last couple of months.”
